If on the 20th when I go to futureshop and see that their copy of Die Hard 2 is a 2-disc version, I'm gonna bring it up with them why I got a different copy from what's in the store

Can anyone definitively confirm or deny that the Die Hard 2 and Die Hard 3 Steelbooks are in fact the 2-disc SE's as the sticker on the package states?

I'm definitely in for all 4 of them, then.

While I normally don't do this, I might go ahead and get the steelbook sets of 2 and 3, since they are the 2-disc editions, so that I'll have all 4 movies in steelbook packaging.

Theoretically, Dune is not a steelbook, from what I understand, since Steelbook is a company, and the case design for Dune is different (the spine is supposedly much more vulnerable to breaking).

do case companies not have to file for copyright of a movie when they are just producing the case for it?

I posted this on the other Die Hard thread, but this might be the more appropriate one.
I just bought the Live Free or Die Hard Steelbook and it had no chapter list insert or booklet. It only had instructions for downloading the digital copy and a free movie ticket for Hitman. Did anyone get the regular 2-disc set? Is it missing a "real" insert too?
Also, I'm curious about the Walmart bonus disc. Anyone watch it? What's in the 2 featurettes? The titles aren't very descriptive.
Finally, I have the 3 previous movies from the 5-Star Collection. But I'm thinking of selling them and getting the BB Steelbooks or the Costco set. Has anyone watched their sets? If there is anything at all new (a featurette or trailer), I'd feel alot better about double dipping.

Thanks, I think I'm going to end up buying the steelbooks. They are much nicer than the old 5-star set.
