Liked the concept of film, but didn't love the film. But, damnit, Emily....

There already is one. Nova's EOT Lenti is one of the best Lentis ever.
It's like a megadeep 3D diorama

It's a fine lenti to be sure, but I've never liked the way the right side of Emily Blunt's face warps as it turns toward the viewer. It distorts and puffs up to look more like Rhona Mitra fresh out of dental surgery.

I always thought it was a byproduct of the lenti print itself, but it looks like it was rendered that way in the mockup as well.

As far as the Manta release is concerned, who else thinks Tom Cruise is the one behind the hold ups with the artwork approval? :LOL:

Maybe.
But that really doesn't explain the 'Blah' Jack Reacher covers.

On mine she kinda just slides left and right, similar to the infamous zavvi Avengers lenti. I think I'm going to give birth to the term "ice skating" to describe this phenomenon.

ice skate
noun
1.
a boot having a steel blade fitted to the sole to enable the wearer to glide swiftly over ice
2.
the steel blade on such a boot or shoe
verb
3.
to glide swiftly over ice on ice skates
4.
a lenticular image slides left and right rather than correctly rotating about an axis

Ha! That is a shame about your lenti, though. Mine (and most others, it seems) mirrors the mockup rendering to a T. It almost sounds like you're describing the same effect that can be achieved by turning a lenti on its side to clearly view the individual layers (without the 3D effect).

Hopefully Manta will get this release pushed through and you can grab a lenti that doesn't require a new definition be added to the dictionary. :LOL:

I was mostly joking, but I wouldn't be surprised if Cruise's various promotional contracts require him to be dominantly featured on certain materials involving the film--particularly on film covers (e.g. his giant mug on the Jack Reacher steel :LOL:). He/his agent/his lawyers probably wouldn't be too keen on him playing second fiddle to Blunt if Manta leaned heavily on her in their mockups (despite her featuring prominently in most of the best promotional artwork for the film).

If that is the case, it's a real shame, as I'd kill for a lenti of the image in the op. :OMG:
