I just wish they could use one of the many iconic images OTHER than the Mothership ending.
For crying out loud - Spielberg said the image of the boy in the door is his favorite image of his whole career. (The road and Devil's Tower are equally awesome).
The mothership is OBVIOUS, a SPOILER, and LAZY.
Well, at least it isn't the Polish release poster.
This is the ACTUAL Polish poster from 1977 - no joke.
Eww wtf is that?
I would prefer the Devils Tower for steelbook art. However, if they can use the boy in the door as an art print from someone then that's even better. As long as it's not the actual picture from the movie.
There's this....but it kind of makes it look like a horror movie.Eww wtf is that?

(I found the image on cinematerial and just added the title)
I kind of really like this fan made image. I especially like it because it recalls the first time Roy sees Devil's Tower on TV. I like how the landscape line flows from the background into the TV image.
I may have to make a slipcover of this!!
I would probably darken the sky - put in the original font, and lose the taglines in favor or the original
"3 kinds" of encounters tag.
(Didn't have time to do that part)
But, really - I would love the original poster as the cover
BTW- I have the original poster from 1977 - 90" x 90" !!!!!!
(Except it just says "WE ARE NOT ALONE" instead of the 3 kinds)
It is original lobby poster from a theater. It is YUUUUUGE!!!

Yea the fan made one is really cool.
And damn 90x90"? I think you told me about it once before, but still
Needless to say - it will be a bear to get framed.Yea the fan made one is really cool.

(Its not the actual framing - it is GETTING 90x90 acrylic. But I have someone who says they can do it. I've been dragging my feet on it, though. Lotsa projects in the home!!).
Night. Interior. Office setting. Jaws Finatic sits at his computer, looking at the video unveiling of the new Best Buy Close Encounters Steelbook.
Slowly lowering his head, his grief over pop art consumes him. It is met with great sadness that this most excellent acheivement in film has to be soiled by a cover art unworthy of it's greatness.

Agree, another lazy effort. No excuse for no inside artwork in a steelbook.
Maybe someone will give this the premium treatment with some nice slipcover.........?

With the way steels keep popping up for the same movies, there is at least a fighting chance this could happen. The dream scenario would be someone like HDZeta or @EverythingBlu doing a nice set with art cards and killer slipcover. Throw in a mini poster and, of course, inside artwork, and I'd have to believe, given the magnitude of its audience, that CE3K would sell out in that capacity. Not that I'm Mr.Moneybags or anything. I love the LA CONFIDENTIAL HD ZETA and drooled over the SHAUN OF THE DEAD EB, but lacked the funds to pull the trigger.
Something like CE3K, though, I think I'd have to pull that trigger rather swiftly..
Best part of the design for me is the title treatment (steelbook only):-
Still prefer the UK release from a few years back . . . not so much for its better design . . . but for the traditional CEotTK blue and the embossed title treatment but that one of course didn't have the 4K UHD disc:-

For something different . . . a little special even, there's this:-
