The Spielberg 4K steelbook showed up in a haul this week. The audio track is the real reason collectors want this one, with 'bass you can taste' being the phrase going around.

A-Tier Paramount 4K. Spielberg's sci-fi thriller, and the 4K announcement alongside Catch Me If You Can was one of the biggest Paramount reveals of the year. The Catch Me If You Can artwork was universally panned while Minority Report's was better received. The steelbook inner photo is oddly from a 2009 Empire magazine shoot, not the film itself.

A-Tier Paramount 4K. J.J. Abrams' MI entry with Philip Seymour Hoffman as the villain, and part of the matching 1-6 steelbook re-release set from July. People are building custom display cases for the MI steelbook collection. The series artwork consistency became a talking point when Fast & Furious was cited as the standard for keeping steelbook art matching across entries.
