Looks like Tom Hanks has something BIG between his legs! Not a fan of this either.

It's far from amazing, but I'm not really minding the art that much. Frankly, this movie's never been given a good cover, despite having numerous releases/editions on DVD & Blu, so IMO, this is a bit of a step up.

This looks awful as do all the new Zavvi titles on today's link
Cheap & nasty

I don't think it is too bad either. It's great that they tried something different with this wave. It's funny that collectors are constantly moaning about recycled artwork, but when a studio finally gives us something a bit different, the same collectors are moaning about the artwork again. Personally I think that studios should use the best artwork available to them, I couldn't care less how many times it has been used before if it looks great.

None of these are Zavvi exclusives, blame Fox or rather the collectors that are never pleased if you don't like the art.

Apologies,I was meaning the new titles I've seen today on the Zavvi link
Realise they are not exclusives still think they look poor even if it's not final artwork

I quite liked this one to begin with, but the more I look at it, the more I dislike it.

I agree with Snool though... I can appreciate the fact that Fox at least tried to go with something different for this wave, and while I don't think the artworks are awful (they'd probably look pretty good as posters), they just don't really suit steelbooks imo.

 

[snooloui]

I'm pretty sure the artwork is final, Fox don't change artwork very often once it has been revealed.

I must say, I don't love it, but I like it. And... I will buy!

[chunk]

I've just ordered but I'm hoping for a discount code between now and release date, also hoping amazon will have a better price

 

[LGrima]

Price still a little, any Zavvi codes about?

 

[Towser]

Cheaper on Zavvi at the moment so I have pre ordered there, but hopefully price might come down before release day

Will this include the extended cut?

Not sure, but the us blu ray has a running time of 105mins and this steelbook release has the run time of 100 mins ( thats what it states on amazon anyway).. so I'm thinking, this is not going to have the extended cut. I have it on dvd, I guess that will have to do when I get this on BD
