Considering the less than choice selection of THE GREY steelbooks / futurepaks out there this new one - if different art - should be most welcome.

Surprised to hear myself saying it but as for the German title "UNTER WOLFEN" - liking it almost as much as DER UNTERGANG / DOWNFALL . . . certainly more interesting than THE GREY . . . and with a title like that set in Alaska the steelbook should be white or grey at the very least . . . and this image from a previous non-steelbook release could be maybe used somewhere on the package:-

What's gone before:-

Spoiler

As for the Marmite ending, an alternative ending was filmed but not used with Neeson going all "Taken" on the wolf - alpha male vs. alpha wolf - but was abandoned for fear of reprisals from wolf lovers who felt wolves has been portrayed unfairly in the film - especially the animatronic wolves (lol) - and who in fact did call for a boycott of the film.

Many reports of people "booing" at the end of the film but if you wait for the bit after the end credits the director likes us to believe that "people...cheered" . . .
Quote,
"We had a different version of the ending that we shot that’s this big blowout with Liam and the wolf… maybe I’ll put it out as a deleted scene. I didn’t want to hand feed anything to the audience, I want to make them think about the film and extrapolate their own conclusion. But there’s a scene that plays after the credits that’s really fun. I did that for pure artistic expression. [People] that we’ve shown it to cheered.”

Bit meh but then what other artwork is there?

 

[BluMan Chu]

No big heads or faces, please. May as well just stick with my regular Blu-ray as it has the same art.

 

[Flloydo]

Rubbish art

 

[Ashish]

oh well. Thats an easy pass now.

 

[pioneer]

Sounds very interesting

 

[Noodles]

Hmm I'll probably pass on this now. I was hoping they'd use something different for the front - that image is used on pretty much every Blu-ray release.

I suppose there's not a lot of good art for this film to be fair, but here's my attempt at a concept using official imagery...

 

[howarmat]

i like it

 

[Radagast]

Big Faces on the front of a steelbook is a no-go for me

 

[hatredhorror]

Big Faces on the front of a steelbook is a no-go for me

[StifflersDad]

Destined for 50% off sale

 

[tha_lunatic]

I like it.

 

[StifflersDad]

I like it.

That's cool dude
But it's still destined for the 50% off sale.

Love it
This is the one to beat
Chinese poster split across the covers (with obvious colour changes to eyes and fur to make them resemble each other better):-

Perfectly balanced artwork in every way for this steelbook . . . Oh, to have the same in the UK . . .

Beats into a cocked hat my choice of this original poster design for the back art:-

..............

 

[BluSteel2012]

I like this too and will definitely be in or it. Can see it selling out too as Neeson is a big draw with fans.

 

[Hereticz]

Very disappointing choice of artworks, but I will probably grab this anyway even though this will end up going under the cost price later on bay I guess....

 

[C.C. 95]

Nothing....can beat this winner.

I find it crazy that this concept art is so much more appealing than any other release of this film I've seen officially distributed.
You should be in charge of these releases!

I hope @C.C. 95 is joking...
