I'm not thrilled with it either. If it's gloss and drops to a reasonable price, I will probably grab just because the show it that good.@Steelselecta we’d probably be only 2 people who don’t like this lol
and I knew that it paid homage to the panting but does anybody know the connection? Why this painting?
i still think the amaray art is exceptional and presents the right "tone" to the show which i don't think that painting does...

Haven't gotten around to this movie yet, but think I'll wait for this disk. Put me down as loving the art, but I really hope it's not a bare metal print. This art deserves better than that.
We're three: I think this is a really ugly steelbook@Steelselecta we’d probably be only 2 people who don’t like this lol

Indeed. Very famous iconic piece of art. One of a few that most people will at least recognise even if they don't know anything else about it (like the artist or when it was painted etc.).@JGCramp mentioned it first and I'm sure others recognized it as well.
I actually wasnt..I cant tell if you are being sarcastic or not.
I once ended up getting BB's The Texas Chainsaw Massacre on WOWHD. It was, ages after its release though. One day I was just looking and I came across it. Couldn't believe it. Must have been excess stock they couldn't shift or something. It was really cheap too.......I was just thinking I've never seen a BB exclusive on there.
Or it was only an exclusive for a limited period of time. Previous Zoom, Amazon or HMV exclusives have later become more widely available on the likes of Zavvi etc. The Original/TNG Star Trek movie series comes to mind as an example.I once ended up getting BB's The Texas Chainsaw Massacre on WOWHD.

It's on the spine aswellDon't get me wrong, I love the art and it's definitely something different and I would totally double dip, but why does it say "An HBO A 5-Part Miniseries" on the front? Why is the extra "A" there? Am I just too linguistically dim or can anybody explain that?
Nope, not at all. You are quite right - there is no need for that extra 'A' at all. It actually makes the sentence quite clumsy having it there!Don't get me wrong, I love the art and it's definitely something different and I would totally double dip, but why does it say "An HBO A 5-Part Miniseries" on the front?
