I do actually like the idea and think it's quite creative, but I was just expecting so much more for a film like this... it needs to be loud and colourful like the film itself IMO.

 

[justboy]

Oooooh
I'm not loving that cassette design.

I suppose kudos go out for trying something different but that looks terrible.

awful

horrendous

appalling

 

[rebelrocks]

Oh dear oh dear .... Cancelling mine as we speak. I hope Best Buy can rescue this release from being the "worst steelbook ever"

 

[RDE]

This is the first steelbook artwork thats actually making me want to cancel. For someone who never got to see the film that artwork means nothing to me, if that was in a shop i wouldnt have a clue what film it was for and probably would just look past it. If they are insisting on artwork like this, it needs some sort of indication that it is Guardians of the Galaxy, you could get away with no title on the spine or front on the other marvel steelbooks because it would have the faces on the spine or recognisable scenes or characters on the front.

 

[AnnaAdorable]

Uhm... Really?

 

[themovielover926]

Hmm.. I kind of get what they were going for, but it's just so dull. Please tell me this isn't the worldwide artwork… :/

 

[cprodrigues]

Of course that could be better, but I liked.

 

[ESM999]

I like the artwork but I want another steelbook with some more traditional artwork.

They will probably have the title on the j-card but it does seem that once again marvel / disney are going for the cheaper mass produced steelbook approach for europeans.

 

[Tacozilla]

if they made it look like the stereo on the Milano then it might have looked better...

The steelbook as it is doesnt even look anything like his walkman anyways

 

[dominic]

Seriously wtf! No just no!

 

[Lukesablade]

Absolutely love it!

 

[Bunk]

Guys, if we all pretend the title of the film is "Studio", it's actually not that bad .

I was secretly wishing for the following artwork and boy, are we far from that :

Look, I'm all for artistic attempts, for something different, but let's not be artsy just for the sake of being artsy. The art chosen has to mean something, and here it really doesn't scream "Guardians of the Galaxy" to me (it would be great for a steelbook of the soundtrack though).

Good....God!
Blufans... please get on this...

I did not pre-order this from Zavvi, because I was hoping the USA would get one. But personally, I love this cover, LOL!

 

[taher]

I haven't seen the movie yet, but curious to know what does this cover have to do with the
concept of the movie?

It's the walkman that Star-Lord (Peter Quill) carries around (won't divulge more to avoid spoiler territory) and plays some awesome tunes.

 

[djfab]

Don't like this !!! Hope for something else in America !

 

[Flloydo]

I know this is not Zavvis fault but I believe a mass cancellation will make them realise that this is not what we want, I've now cancelled mine for this terrible terrible artwork.
Never has an artwork reveal made me so furious. this was such an epic film it deserves much much better. If anything what they are showing should be the back art or someting. I was hoping for characters and loads of colour. Shame. Epic fail
