Already own it via Studio Canal Collection digibook things.

Well, I'm a person.

Using the original poster art is usually the safest option in most cases, but I love to see studios taking a risk and going for something completely new. However, it'd probably be better if they gave us a choice and let us vote or something, because like I said... it can be risky!

I agree safe and predictable gets boring but when taking a chance with new artwork I would prefer they include an actual image or character from the movie. These are fine as fan posters but should never be included on the movies themselves. I had the same problem with the recent fox wave that tried this as well.

It is not for me this artwork. Yes it is nice to see something different but I personally don't like it. Great to see a steelbook release though.

The Deer Hunter is getting a Re-release in UK Cinemas
on the 01 August 2014

The Artwork on the Steelbook is from the official Re-release Film Poster you will be seeing this poster in coming months to advertise the Cinema Showings

Surprised though the Blu-ray is out on the 11th August
I would have thought they would have waited a couple of months to release the Blu-ray

I'd forgotten about those... they were horrible.

Great choice!!

 

[karl01]

great FILM LAME artwork they are becoming lazy due to releasing everything on a steelbook

 

[axldelarge]

I like it!
It works far better as horizontal (big size) poster artwork, but it's a well done design and not amateurish at all. So please stop digging every new or fresh approach attempt.

 

[berns]

Im actually in luv with that artwork!

 

[vurt]

I really like the artwork and a decent price for a change...I'm happy

:bow: :bow: :bow:

MUST HAVE!!!

 

[Tacozilla]

A damn good price

 

[harry]

Awesome movie

 

[billabong]

It looks like the guy that did the recent fox wave is back off his holidays, too mess up a few more classics (very lazy quote on the back as well )

 

[urbeenjammin]

You guys should RATE the thread with your vote...

 

[ghost1]

Well that's out of the blue, absolutely brilliant film but that front artwork is awful, it's more suited to a kids cartoon series

Agree, it looks like it should be off watership down or somthing.

 

[Stevieboy]

Remember that scene where Christopher Walkin was playing Russian roulette and blew his brains out?

Well that's How I feel lately when ordering from Zavvi.

Love this movie, but I don't think I can get past that artwork :movie:

 

[TheWorz]

That cover is aweful! What were they thinking?!
