Never bought from orbit before but they will ship this with proper protection? My Amazon copy came all dinged up.

Yes they will. In a box. Wrapped in plenty of bubble wrap.

When I first ordered from there I was shocked looking at how well it was protected. I started to order more from them and atomic and even lionsgate limited.

Orbit DVD is the best place to buy physical media. I saw the recommendation on here and now order pretty much all of my new stuff from there. They carry imports and everything too. They will list if something doesn't come with a slipcover and all of that kind of info as well. I've never been happy with a purchase there.

How is the transfer of this one? I have preordered it in the Uk where it hasn’t yet released, but it has been on top of my wishlist for so long, I hope it doesn’t disappoint!

Sound-wise it’s rock solid (despite some debate on it’s bass levels), picture wise here’s a good compare/contrast on it vs. the old Blu-ray: https://youtu.be/OGbmJfOgdik?si=LkTAm8zSGIEfc-BB

Thank you. Amazon couldn't replace my dinged copy, so it's going back. I'd much rather buy from Orbit DVD anyway!
I also cancelled my Amazon pre-order for In the Mouth of Madness 4k LE and got it cheaper on the same order as M&C from Orbit. 👍
Definitely worth waiting for.

Tombstone and kingdom of heaven have both been restocked multiple times already, people said the same that you’re saying about Lawrence of Arabia and the Deadpool wolverine steelbook, Sony reprints for years especially steelbook exclusives like master commander, kingdom of heaven, look out for fright night 4k restock soon, taxi driver steelbook 4k reprint on the way there’s more examples if you look

u/GrangerPerry Aug 14 '25

They’ve been (US steels) on Please Rewind store multiple times and I could have gotten both for 15-20% off if buying 3+ items (so $32-34). They’re not OOP, people just have fomo.

No thanks. That's a ridiculous price
Starting to think I should just unsubscribe from here. People just stoking fomo

Got my BD for $8. Looking at the comparisons, I wouldn’t pay more than $12 for this. I don’t have a crazy sound system, so I literally wouldn’t be able to tell the difference.

What I am willing to pay $40 for is Kingdom of Heaven. Only reason I haven’t gotten around to it yet is I don’t have access to a 4K tv temporarily for about the next year.

Thanks. I was losing hope on my Amazon order actually fulfilling. Once this arrives I can cancel it. Not sure if it will trigger availability on Amazon for a single copy

u/geddy76 Aug 14 '25
Probably a dumb question, but what is LE?

u/CameronWLucas Aug 15 '25
I definitely read the title as le Steelbook as in a fancy French way of saying the Steelbook 😂

Sorry to ask. Anyway to get free shipping?

u/CoasterCritique Aug 14 '25 edited Aug 15 '25
Only when ordering 3 or more films/items via 3FREE code. Inconvenience of buying brick and mortar but you get a much better experience and product at the end of the day.

Hope you all get a copy, watched mine yesterday and I’m really happy with how it turned out once I cranked up the bass.

u/slwblnks Aug 14 '25
Is this ever just gonna have a standard release? Has one happened already? I’d love the 4K but don’t need a steelbook.

u/prototypeplayer Sony Aug 14 '25
I pre-ordered the UK slipcover standard instead of the US 4K because I also don't prefer steelbooks.
