Ok guys ... gonna get announced soon .... but until then choose on the inside art for another one of QT's epics.


CHOICE 1

CHOICE 2

[/spoiler]

 

[Softwing]

The back is the same as the likely inside artwork choice? Fail! This combined with the fact that the front is boring and recycled makes it an easy pass for me.

Near enough the same without being completely identical. I would have hoped that as this steelbook is for both movies, that Part 2 would have been represented somewhere in the artwork. I actually now regret voting for #2, as in the context of the back artwork I think it's the poorer choice.

The more and more I look at this and seeing the back art. The more and more I can get on-board with it. Definite pre-order for me! Luckily I dont own any of the Kill Bill's in any format so no double dipping.

 

[ThalliumBook]

With the right finish, this could be stunning, but I still love the canadian releases, decisions...

 

[Maccadinho25]

Do the lines on the inside art suggest embossed borders?

Bye bye German edition!

Should now have artwork 1 inside though! Could of done with seeing the back when we voted but still looks great

 

[justboy]

I was thinking the same thing although I'm glad it's not something bland like I was expecting.

Yeah, the back art is very nice, so I will still be ordering this whatever the polls outcome is.
I might refrain from voting in any future artwork choices if not all sides of a steelbook have been revealed, just in case this happens again!

If that is going to be the back artwork, I would have preferred that (or at least a similar image/variation of it) to have been the front artwork, and the rear to be an image from Kill Bill vol 2 as looking at it now, all the artwork on the steelbook is from Kill Bill vol 1, which is a bit odd considering its a Kill Bill vol 1&2 combo.

Still nicer than the German one though....and I'll still buy it

 

[Aberdonian83]

Wasn't going to get the steelbook for this after only buying them on blu day a few weeks ago, but after seeing the artwork, I'll be pre-ordering as soon as link is live

Choice 2 for me

 

[DJ IXS]

They should have used an image of Uma in the bride outfit for the back... She already has the yellow jumpsuit on the front cover and IF the front stays the same then the only thing distinguishing it as having BOTH parts 1&2 is the spine.

Just what I was thinking!

Something like this:

As she doesn't have a standout 'uniform' in the sequel, but it'd be great to have some kind of different colour in the background, and maybe her training with Pai Mei, or her holding a gun maybe (to emphasise the change in tone). Can't really find any other decent screenshots online at the moment. But yeah, I'm confused - having her in the jumpsuit on the front, back and inside is a bit much. I was looking at my Hurt Locker steelbook today, and that has great photo designs with no text and looks beautiful, I wish they would do that with more steelies!

Remember, her codename is Black Mamba...colour should be important - black on yellow for Vol 1, red on black for Vol 2. Big black/red/yellow/white caps text. It's pretty straightforward! I might even be able to knock it up on InDesign in an afternoon...

inner and back art now up, think it's shaping up really well after the initial disappointment of cover art http://www.zavvi.com/blu-ray/kill-b...usive-limited-edition-steelbook/10795733.html

 

[Deleted member 9789]

Inside and back are a bit too similar for my liking...

 

[ABjerg]

Back and inside artwork are too similar. Someone needs to inform Zavvi and make them change that.
Maybe something from KB2 on the back.

 

[Scarface]

I wasn't getting this anyway but have to say the artwork is very disappointing imo

 

[cartman69]

i am a HUGE kill bill fan and even i am considering giving this one a miss!! It's too similar to the german edition.

 

[portraitofruin]

Why not continue the look of the front on the back?
I can't see anything hard about it. Website now says Region B too so I might just pass this up now.

 

[elverange]

I don't think that the front and the back will look great together ...

 

[gaeljet]

I really like the back (i also like the inside art,but inside arts do not really matter much for me..lol)

 

[bettsie86]

The back looks like a cropped pic of the inside art....... Were zavvi expecting choice 1 to win?!

 

[Pawl250]

This artwork needs changed for me. I love these films but what a massive disappointment.

If Wreck sees this, I think alot of people on here agree, this could be a massive success but will most likely sell slow due to the end product. The front looks very bland.

They should really take inspiration from the single steelbook releases with the Hanzo sword on number 1 and the Bride poster for number 2.

I think even putting one on the front and one on the back would make it a pretty special steelbook, after all it is for 2 films, so 2 covers would look unique, maybe change it up abit but this looks dull.

Hope they change it until then its awaiting a price drop, or never category for me.
