The big draw: the complete two-disc edition
on December 26, 2014
Posted by: tgf1119
Verified Purchase:Yes
I liked the art for other Pop Art steelbooks, but this is one of the two where there are multiple editions to contend with. Thankfully, Sony and Best Buy have done the right thing by including the complete two-disc edition, which includes the longer Director's Cut of the film. It would've been easy to go the cheaper route and include the more common one-disc edition, but I'm glad they didn't. I also wish all of the Pop Art Steelbooks took a cue from this one: Das Boot is the only one where the art was long enough to cover the entire front and back cover, meaning it's the only one with art visible on the spine, and something other than a zoomed in portion of the art on the back cover.

Another good Steelbook upgrade
on December 26, 2014
Posted by: tgf1119
Verified Purchase:Yes
I had previously owned Dr. Strangelove on Blu-ray, but I sold it thanks to high resale value and the expectation that maybe Sony would upgrade it with a new anniversary edition. Instead, I ended up with this Steelbook, which is identical to the disc I previously owned, but has the nice new Pop Art design. My only complaint is that it doesn't have the full title on the spine.

An excellent Blu-ray in a nice Steelbook package
on December 26, 2014
Posted by: tgf1119
Verified Purchase:Yes
I already owned Taxi Driver on Blu-ray before purchasing this new package. It features one of the all-time best-looking Blu-ray restorations, and has a wonderful selection of extras, including a commentary by Martin Scorsese recorded for The Criterion Collection back in the laserdisc era. I don't normally like Steelbooks, but I wasn't a huge fan of the standard packaging for Taxi Driver, and the Pop Art line has some of the best exclusive artwork I've seen, with only a couple that I'm not interested in. An easy purchase.
