Paramount has widely released Director Peter Segal's hilarious 1995 Comedy 'Tommy Boy' in SteelBook packaging. The film was previously released in SteelBook packaging and was exclusive to F.Y.E. The SteelBook is identical, and so is the disc identical to that found in the 2008 wide release. New to this package is a digital copy code. See the 'Special Features and Extras' section of the review below for more on the SteelBook's look and feel.

The yellow dominant front and rear panels are slick and smooth but visible fingerprinting is not much of an issue. The front depicts Tommy, puffed up
and large, filling much of the panel and with a goofy grin on his face. Richard is also center but lower down, looking irritated. The deer is peeking out
middle bottom with its antlers reaching upward and framing Tommy and Richard. The film's title appears in black block letters top center. "Chris
Farley" and "David Spade" appear above in white. The rear panel carries over the yellow color. The doorless blue convertible appears center bottom
with its engine smoking and the deer standing inside the vehicle. A Paramount logo and legalese appear bottom left in white. The yellow spine depicts
the film's title in black, center, with white Paramount and Blu-ray logos at the top and bottom, respectively.
Inside, the lone Blu-ray disc (with artwork that is different from the F.Y.E. disc) appears on a single hub on the right-hand side. The digital copy
voucher
fits under the left-hand-side tabs. The inner print
is a two-panel spread that depicts Richard, left, and
Tommy, right, sitting in the convertible, the former chilling with his shades, the latter behind the wheel and obviously really into the adventure.
There's
a hole
in the glass.

The Tommy Boy SteelBook will certainly stand apart from the crowd. It's bright, it's fun, and it's now widely available. The movie is great, too. Sadly there's no change to the on-disc content but first-time buyers and SteelBook enthusiasts will want to add this one to their collections. Recommended.
