Lethal Weapon (4K+2D Blu-ray SteelBook) [UK]

You might have noticed a tendency on all recent steels not having likeness of any actor, or even famous buildings, or anything that can be copyrighted - they don't want to ask permission, or pay anyone anything extra.That's decent but then I don't get why they're obsessing over the bullet smiley to the degree of using it on this old steel, the upcoming 4k collectors slipbox AND this new 4k steelbook (which may end up in the collectors set). It is a fun part of the movie but c'mon! This new version is not only far worse artwork than the previous steel but awfully lazy to rehash the same concept over and over (and over) again... try something else!
Part of me thinks thinks they don't respect the love for the franchise that people have enough. Maybe Mels contreversial issues over the years have clouded judgment or made people involved less enthusiastic to put some work/money into this. This might sound like hyperbole but imo if we get this art then I don't foresee any major disc extras or a fifth movie. Contextually, that's how badly I view this absolute abomination of a steelbook.
Hope I'm wrong and I'm being wildly cynical.
That doesn't mean new abstract art can't be made, like for Wanted for example, but explains the 'obsession' with bullet holes...
Such ugly steelbook art 
. Luckily I'm only interested in the normal blu-ray disc, there's bound to be someone who will sell the disc separately. Here's hoping the director's cut is also on it because I don't think that version has been available on blu-ray before. I'll just put it in my beautiful box set.
