Front Cover Art - Title or No Title? (Poll)

[stinkofdefeat]

Just curious what the consensus is of having front cover art on a steelbook with no Title on it, is this good or bad?

I personally am leaning toward bad, but it does open the front space up so show off more artwork, and it is kind of unique looking without a title. But I still would prefer the title on there (with embossing perfered).

What do you guys think?

depends on the artcover, on my dr mabuse steel it looks ****ing awesome without the title but not sure about other steels.

if it's an iconic film the emblem might be sufficient, i.e. superman or batman

Either way, for me. As long as it's not ugly.

As a general rule, I don't like it when there's no title. Sometimes there are exceptions, The Green Hornet for example, but most of the time it just looks pants like The Man with the Iron Fists. I look at my copy of The Hurt Locker and think how much better it would be with the title on the front (like the Korean version).

I prefer titles on the front cover, but if they have some good explanation on why not to include the title, or if it's very very unique or something, then I don't mind.

Like for example if they made another Evil Dead steelbook and picked the book of the dead as front/back (all around art), then it would ruin the steel if they put a title on it.

So it all depends.

It can look very cool with no title imo, it depends on the film and artwork though. The green hornet is one of my favourite steels but with a title added I don't think it would look so badass! Also hoping they don't add a title on the From Dusk Till Dawn steel as I think the front looks perfect as is.

Depends on the movie and art for me...

I definitely prefer the title, every single time. In my opinion, it's part of the coolest factor of the film.

It can look unique without the title, all depends on the artwork.

Love no title - super clean!!!!

As long as it has the title on the spine so it's easy to pick out, I don't mind. The Man With The Iron Fists is annoying as hell because there is no title at all.

^ Agreed, I at least want the title on the spine.
