The Muppets 3/20/12
For anyone that's interested you can pre-order the Muppets at Best Buy and get a steelbook/ironpack.
On the back it shows the three disc combo pack, but on the front it says you can get the two disc as well.

Sorry if someone told me that the new Muppets movie came in a "metal box" I wouldn't know what the hell they were talking about. Most people who collect DVDs know what a steelbook is. I figured that was good enough.

Metal box? First time I've ever heard that.
I ordered when Amazon had the $5 promo ($26 for the 3 disc + soundtrack). Hopefully that will drop a few more bucks, and I'll just pick up the "metal box" separately.

Best Buy/Future Shop has at least three exclusives titles that use Viva Metal Boxes. And other countries are starting to use them as well.

I got an email from Best Buy that mentioned it, and even they called it a steelbox. Anyway, I picked one up at my BB yesterday, I thought I heard these were rather scarce, but they had like 20 out.

We've been through this shit before. It all depends on the manufacturer. Steel Tin, SteelBook, MetalPak, Metal Box, IronPack...no use bitching about what the "correct" term is, we all know what it means.

I haven't seen this yet but I want to know one thing about the ending first:
I'm dreading it's the latter which would be terrible because the former is what the Muppets are all about!

Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed. No need to get all pissy. I was just stating the right term.

Wasn't pissy. Just that you're the one who got all indignant that someone didn't use the exact term. All I'm saying is it's the same thing... a non-plastic case. Different manufacturers use different words. No need to correct someone. It's pretty nit-picky.
