Love these, but the only trouble with Bond releases is how quickly they become outdated- the only way this series could work is if we get steelbook releases going forward using the same concept of using scenes from the opening sequences.

My DVD collection still irks me to this day...

I like it! And as per usual- everyone will say they hate it- but it will sell out in 5 minutes flat.
(And the nice thing is, the old steelbook doesn't spontaneously wink out of existance because of it...i.e.- if you don't like it- buy the other one...)
And, Hey! It looks like you get free passes to see SPECTRE too!! (If I am translating that correctly on the front sticker).

James Bond is about class and the artwork should stay classy.
Think the only rebuttal on that point is that the image used is lifted from the movies opening credits; If it was a horrible photoshopped effort made by a designer purely for the sake of the steelbook I'd be more inclined to agree.

I think the philosophy of using imagery from the opening title sequences as the steelbook artwork is a fresh take on the Bond releases (obviously, we've all got different thoughts on what constitutes good/bad artwork, but I think it's more daring than the typical amaray case artwork they could of gone with...)
 
Am I the only one who likes this??
To me, it seems the artwork used on these Bond steelbooks are from scenes used in the opening sequences of the film, which is a good idea as far as I'm concerned.

Would be interested to see the rest of the artwork before deciding whether or not to commit...

You aren't buddy. Like it, too for the same reason that the artwork is from the opening sequence ;)

Totally agree. I like the designs of the new steelbook series. Would be great to see that kind of steelbook for the upcoming Spectre movie.
