[duncanfranchise]

Just spoke to a Warner rep at Astroplus yesterday afternoon.  300 will be due in July and it will be released in three versions.  The rep did say something about a P1200 Steelbook version with a comic book.  I'll try to get more details.

Hmmm... another steelbook.. 

[keilu]

hmm...steelbook....will most likely get this one

[Quitacet]

Most probably in these versions:

1. The regular 2-disc editions

2. The 2-disc Deluxe Edition (with slipcase probably with lenticular covers and a comicbook)

3. The steelbook (containing the deluxe edition in steelbook case)

[av_phile1]

The steelbook version is now up in my list of must have. 

[seph1018]

I hope the local release won't disappoint any of us who are expecting a lot from this feature. Warner has only disappointed me once...(The Departed R3 steelbook missing the Scorsese docu), but it definitely won't change my mind in getting at least one local release...kahit na for viewing purposes lang. Let's hope that they do release this in a steelbook or at the very least, in a lenticular slipcase ala Batman Begins & Corpse Bride DEs.

Crossing my fingers...

[Pillow]

Wha?! No limited dicapitated Spantan head?!     I guess the steelbook will do.. 

[edboy7]

the dutch version has the steelbook but different cover art
R2 STEELBOOK

[clea]

Most probably in these versions:

1. The regular 2-disc editions

2. The 2-disc Deluxe Edition (with slipcase probably with lenticular covers and a comicbook)

3. The steelbook (containing the deluxe edition in steelbook case)

pag ganito I'll be getting both the lenticular and steelbook edition

You and me both, dude.

hmm... append to wishlist...

[boredfilmmaker]

OT:

the Spanish release looks kinda cool..

[Quitacet]

I prefer a simple 300 logo embossed on a tin packaging and let the inlay have the graphics.

[ronjet]

ill definitely buy this one

[silhouette]

another must buy.

[Battousai]

Sana the steel book or steel case would be in the shape of the Spartan Shield. 

[Pillow]

Must buy for me.

OT:

the Spanish release looks kinda cool..

Hopefully we can have the same limited ed release here where a helmet/collectible item is included.

[xage]

Looks like unlikely will happen recent steelbook releases dont emboss the titlenames

[pchin]

I was hoping for an Extended Edition....more fight scenes...more gores... 

[coolestboy]

right on mr. chin.....if its extended baka 600 spartans na yan..hehehe...

[boredfilmmaker]

300 Tin Case (R3 Korean Version)

maybe we'll get the same?

[clea]

Hopefully if Warner gets smart they'll mirror this release

[Pasoot]

Amen to that. 

[seph1018]

if the local release mirrors the Korean steelbook...solved nako jan. 2copies agad!!!

[av_phile1]

300 Tin Case (R3 Korean Version)

maybe we'll get the same?

Nice, that wud be great.  But how often does local R3 copy Korean packaging?

[aszamora]

According to Cris of Astro, there will be a steel case release of 300 and priced P1250. Me kasama pa yatang comic book iyon. She was right about the Departed tin case before &I hope she's right about this one as well.

[crazyguyallert]

The price is a little expensive...

I don't get it cause "The Departed" was a lot cheaper, are they using like a diffrent type of metal or something?

[av_phile1]

Must be the comics.  If that's the complete Miller comicbook in glossy color pages, even if scaled down to DVD steelbook size, then 1250 might be ok. 

[Gideon]

Nasa list ko na talaga ito!

[aszamora]

If it's indeed priced P1250, then whatever bonus supplement it has should be worth it. It's a little strange for Warner to price a single title like that. Hopefully, no missing features unlike The Departed and sana mas bumaba pa sa P1250.
