Why does it look like he's under water???

 

[SaberTooth]

That back art with the "bullet" will always bother me It's a shell casing and not the actual bullet. Why would someone stick a shell casing in a bullet hole

in the uk we are not allowed guns like u guys graphic artist probably doesn't have a clue about ballistics

 

[Peenuts]

This 1 is definitely NOT welcome to the party pal

 

[hatredhorror]

great artwork!

 

[Jim Morrison]

Easy pass.

@ Peenuts - This 1 is definitely NOT welcome to the party pal

This made me laugh a good bit. That is a great take on a classic line in the movie. I was so excited for the original Die Hard to finally get steelbook treatment, and I absolutely love the original theaterical poster. Hands down one of my favorite movies ever, so a buy would be obvious.... right?

Well, I don't like the artwork at all. Not fitting for a movie that redefined the action genre for FOREVER. So not too sure I want to add it to my collection. Way to modern. That cover looks like it fits Die Hard 4.0 more than any of the original three.

Sad face....

Missed opportunity.

 

[trikidicky]

I think that artwork is quality! Probably is a bit too modern but still think it looks really good! Hopefully they do Die Hard 2 as well, I could take or leave DH4 to be honest

Thank you Zavvi, saved me £15.99.

Horrendous cover.

 

[Hooch]

Not was I was hoping for..as mentioned before it looks to "modern" and I also agree that he looks to be under water!

will have embossing

 

[Jim Morrison]

will have embossing

Turd, polish, can't...etc.

To be fair, it's not quite Sixth Sense bad....but it's very uninspired.

ill probably pass on this. i thought the broken glass art looked stupid on the cover of that set when it came out, and i still think its stupid

 

[Thisisnotsparta]

I still think the air duct would be a better choice for inside art, but that bear does make me chuckle. The back really sucks though. Nice artwork, but it's just a random bullet, not even remotely Die Hard related

 

[GinjaNinja18]

I'll probably end up getting this as I don''t have it on blu-ray, but fairly underwhelmed to be honest.

The front seems to be the image of Bruce from the theatrical poster, not really sure why they played around with it, but it wasn't a good idea.

Personally would have went for some Hans on the inside.

Very nice picture of a bullet on the back, bit random though.

 

[CaptainCoffee]

The more I look at it the worse it gets. It looks like Bruce is taking part in a bad Calvin Klein photoshoot or something.

Like on zoolander....just look at that pout man.

 

[greg]

the back doesnt even make sense, thats the casing, that part doesnt come out of the barrel, it also isnt a fired casing either, theres no mark from the firing pin, also the bullet hole is the opposite direction of the shot

 

[Wreck]

I like it, looks really good. However jason is right ... very weird. As its impossible to have a bullet hole and then a shell casing in it ... the shell falls on the floor .... unless he picked it up and walked over and stuck it in the hole.

 

[Petturi]

Even though I don't like the back cover, I will get this. Don't own Die Hard on Blu-ray and don't really want the sequels (already own on DVD).

 

[tenderheartbear]

It would look better on the front if it didn't have the broken glass effect.

As for the back... Seriously? Technically wrong in every aspect. And rubbish anyway.

 

[mactaylor]

Gonna pass. This artwork sucks bigtime.
