what??? i'm sorry i haven't read every post but if you mention a tin case like, "I just received this (movie title) in a tin case from the UK and I love it"...that gets you banned?

My first was The Company of Wolves [R2], not because of the case but because it was superior to the R1 release. I like the Steelbook case, but I generally buy whatever has the superior release of the film. In most cases it means Blu Ray which means I have to pass on a lot of the exclusive cases. My last Steelbook was the German T2 HD DVD.

Appleseed, Limited Edition, was my first, but I'm not actually into collecting steelbooks. I only go for them when they are an easy choice.

Only one I own is PARIS JE T'AIME. I have about all the Walt Disney Treasures, but those are tin boxes and not books.
