Someone found a use for that smiley!!
Awesome!! Well done! @Noodles !

Haha glad you noticed! You have no idea how long I've waited to use it.

 

[Raggle Fraggle!]

Not sure how I feel about the title placement on the front... the ship acting as the 'I' looks a bit tacky IMO.

As for the rest of the artwork, I like it! It's an official wallpaper though, so Film Arena didn't actually design this one and therefore can't be to blame for the "big heads" this time.

I also used it for my steelbook concept...

This concept looks WAY better. I really hope they change the title placement and add the "i" back in.


SIDENOTE: someone said the FAC mockup was posted on the FilmArena Facebook but Im not seeing it on there anywhere?

FilmArena needs to look at your concept art and do the exact same thing to their full slip. Artwise, this slip looks great, but that 'ship as an I' needs to go. Like you said, that's just tacky. Definitely needs to change before release.

I guess it COULD be worse with the title....

Don't give them any ideas.

The missing "i" definitely bothers me, so I hope people post to the film arena site in great numbers while there is still a chance to get them to make the change.

Look how well it worked with the art cards for The Shallows release.

 

[Skyarcke]

Their design definitely has potential. Needs to be tweaked a bit though. The missing "I" just kills it for me.

Not usually interested in Filmarena releases and as such will be waiting for another retailer to do it (Manta Lab anyone?). But will be watching the development of this release closely, as Arrival was a phenomenal film and absolutely deserves the premium treatment.

[Bunk]

I like it— one of the best slips recently unveiled by FilmArena, imo.

 

[Radagast]

Finally a really good release imo. Great

 

[icharlie17]

I don't really like it that much. The missing "i" is specially what bothers me.

Do we know if any other retailer is going to make a premium edition of this movie? Or do we have to go with this one?

Don't give them any ideas.

You kidding?! I'm waiting for the phone call about my new job with them!

 

[AlienKing]

@C.C. 95 @Noodles I actually used the cyclops emoji before. Where were you guys when i used it?

Anyways, love the front but not so much the back. They also need to bring the title layer (on the front) to the foreground.

 

[tommyh84]

Yep like that

 

[Maximus15]

can't stand that missing "i".....so annoying!

 

[luke98]

So its ARRVAL

 

[harry]

Thanks for the tagg @rj531 . Hmm i think i will wait and see the price and the goodies, and also if Kimchi or Nova are going to release it .

What is this obsession with plastering sad faces on the slips? It looks like Amy Adams is having her period (no offense). The slip artwork is actually worse than the Steelbook artwork.
