Just opened my Inception and it only has 1 disc in it.

Mine does too. I picked up Inception along with all the LOTR titles. I guess I'll just keep my other copy of Inception with the lenticular slipcover as well.
[OFF TOPIC] I wonder if the slipcover collectors would pay top dollar for that one. [/OFF TOPIC]

Correct. The Best Buy Exclusive SteelBook of Inception only comes with one disc. The Future Shop / Fye Exclusive that came out around release date has both discs (and interior artwork ). If you want the second disc, you need to submit a web mail to WB, who will send one out NQA. Look above in this thread for details (I'm too lazy right now).

Re: New WB Steelbook Re-releases at Best Buy

I tried to avoid re-buying titles, but I've picked up Batman Begins, TDK, Shawshank, and Clash of the Titans. It was easier to get the Batman films due to the movie cash, but also they're the only ones with new UV digital copies. I wish the others had that.

With confirmation that Sherlock 2 is a G2 BD sized steelbook, I'm trying to track down the first one. However, at 2 locations, which both show in stock, none on the floor and no one can find any in the back. Shocker.

I think I may get The Matrix tomorrow, assuming it's on the sales floor.

Re: New WB Steelbook Re-releases at Best Buy

These are on sale again for $9.99. Some people have already found them in stores. Sale should last through 12/1. The Departed, Superman Returns, Wrath of the Titans (2D VERSION) and Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows are now part of the group. Titans and Sherlock 2 aren't the same as the exclusive versions previously released. These should have the same matte like finish as the others on sale and are just 1-disc versions.

Re: New WB Steelbook Re-releases at Best Buy

I might have to go in for Batman Begins and The Dark Knight this time. I'm planning to get The Dark Knight Rises Steelbook and it'd be nice to have the whole Steelbook trilogy.

Re: New WB Steelbook Re-releases at Best Buy

Can anyone confirm if this version of Sherlock Holmes: Game of Shadows has all of the features?

It's just the single disc version, which is probably the one without the movie mode. Same for Wrath of the Titans. It's also just a 1 disc version.

Re: New WB Steelbook Re-releases at Best Buy

Once again, Inception only has one disc while the back cover advertises the extras on two disc version.

Re: New WB Steelbook Re-releases at Best Buy

Does anyone remember how much the LOTR movies were last time they were released in steelbook? I'm ready to trade in my DVDs of the theatrical cuts for Blu and I'm hoping these steelbooks will be a decent price.

All of those steelbooks were $9.99 (or $4.99 after the trade & save) this past time.

I would love to get a couple of those, but no way am I buying the same movie twice just for the steelbook.

Arent most of those new SB the same covers used before? I like when the SB cover is something new.

If 300 is the SE, I'll get it for sure. (I still have the first release) Might pick up some others if they can be had for $5 during the trade-in promo.

Cool to see some Paramount titles get the Steelbook treatment.

I like that Chinatown. Otherwise, DigiBooks > SteelBooks. Would rather see their UK exclusive DigiBooks released here instead of an unnecessary cash grab for recycled titles in steel.

300? Get the Complete Experience in DigiBook for the definitive release.

As much as I like that Chinatown steelbook, I'll probably pass on these.
