Is it even a question? Type B is easily the best one.

 

[AlexG]

How is it possible that Type C has more than 5+ votes...

That's 5 too many..

 

[NomegustaU]

was really wishing for something better than this, looks like someone spent 30 minutes putting these together. Ill still get it because I love the movie, but not impressed at all.

How is it possible that Type C has more than 5+ votes...

That's 5 too many..

So I think B has 125 too many votes…
Different doesn't mean better, and the original worldwide classic artwork is still better.

I respect you all guys, but are you kidding me?
You like puzzles guys? Really? A puzzle pieces texture? Oh god…

There were too many dual concepts to explore like tattoos/skin, remember/forget, mirror/reality, polaroids/pen signs (THE main visual theme), murders/love etc. etc. etc. and, instead of voting "none" and suggest one of them, you're getting excited by a puzzle with poorly done puzzle pieces…

As I said, I feel like I don't belong to your planet…

I think Kimchi should call PA and ask for their advice on the artwork

A is the best one but nothing new/fresh about it, the rest are new and fresh but doesn't look appealing at all, especially B, that pose is just too posey imo, like an underwear ad or something

 

[mbennett76]

Tbh I'd be happy with A or B, I'm more interested in seeing what the whole package looks like than just the steelbook. For example I wasn't sold on Pefume until I saw the full slip and lenticular now I'm all in. If this was zavvi then I'd be disappointed because all you're getting is the steelbook. But seeing as it's kimchi I'll be happy as long as they get the slips right!

 

[max steelbook]

I like this film a lot! Type B is by far the best artwork.
Main thing is that they include the extras that show the film the other way round. THIS IS IMPORTANT!!! And a deal breaker for many I think.

 

[ESM999]

Type B for sure

you're right, hopefully the full slip and the bonus will make up for it

 

[urbeenjammin]

I would only go with option B if every single puzzle piece was embossed...

 

[RabbitChen]

i prefer A.

but the back side design should change, it's just too empty...

 

[smileyx9]

For those who don`t even open it,the Artwork of the Steel is not much to care about.
Hopefully the Slip is going to be awesome(btw.i also voted for "B" and i always open mine)

 

[Cymon H]

Cover option B for me, with everyone saying they're going to pass on this, I should have no problem picking it up for once

 

[Jericho]

Art A is fine, but its the same old, same old artwork. Solid, but nothing awe inspiring. Art B looks quite nice and I'm pleasantly suprised. Maybe KimChi will use B for the Steel and A for the slip? A lenticular slip with the photo changing could be cool.

 

[jimmyv]

wow. i absolutely 100% do not like any of these. if i HAD to choose, i suppose i'd pick A.

B and C look too much like memento is about a gay man, and while i mean nothing inappropriate or offensive by that... the problem is that this movie is totally not about that, which makes those artworks quite ... uh..... strange.

i think we can do a lot better than these choices honestly.

 

[RekLess]

The more I think about it, the more I regret voting for option B.

Snoo and UZO are right, A is the way to go if we have to choose between those three.

B did seem original at first, and if they try to emboss some of the biggest puzzle pieces it could look good (gloss is a no-brainer too, given the price we pay), but I've been looking at it more now and I still do not understand what they're doing to Guy Pearce, he's positioned like he's in a perfume commercial : shirtless, shizzled, arms behind the head and all

I wasn't fully convinced when I voted for B, since I voted B and None of the above (I'm a complex man ).

Option A isn't fantastic either, but the front is quite alright, sometimes it's perhaps best to go with a safer choice than trying something that could look quite ridiculous and off topic, in some way (and a perfume commercial isn't what I look for in a Memento steelbook ).

Option C is just wrong, I won't even spend time writing a few words about it (oh, I just did ).

If I could vote again, I would vote A, but mostly I hope they can include some other art choices (now it's a long shot given how we were all blinded by Option B at first).

With a bigger picture on the back and full gloss, option A could look downright great

Are you sure you're from France? Like a typical American you rushed into this vote. I don't understand why people are so quick to vote on these things. This is a steel that's going to hopefully occupy a space on your shelf for at least a few years. So why wouldn't people take some time to really digest what's been presented? Instead, people just vote for the very first thing that sort of appeals to them.

What's the hurry? The poll is open until the 21st. People should discuss first, vote later. Instead, everybody is voting right away and then when they read the other opinions in the thread they say, "oh ya, that option really is better. Wish I could re-vote." Guess what--there is no re-vote.

This vote is already pretty much over (even though it's been up for less than a day). But I hope that some astute ninjas would really consider taking time the next time we have to vote on one of these things. Let's talk it out first. That's what a forum is for.

 

[Narg]

If it was to have been none of the above that won i wonder what other ones they would have chose as B is the best of the bunch but would have liked to see what others would have been on offer.

 

[CollectorEmtee]

Front on A isn't bad but there's already a slipcase with that one so I think B is the best choice.

Wonder what slip they will use.

Cannot wait!

 

[Scarface]

poor designs IMO, gd movie but unless the steel looks gd too, I'l pass

I completely respect your opinion on talking it out before voting, however, no amount of communication or debate will change a first impression and for me after scrolling through the choices it was absolutely choice B.

Yes, it would be cool if each piece was embossed/debossed, and everything else that people have said about that artwork, but regardless of whether that happens or not, that was the artwork that grabbed my attention the most and is the one I would like to see on the steelbook.

Again, no offense intended and I respect your opinion, but no matter if it was today or the 21st, nothing would make me like A or C more than B.
