WOW! That's pretty bad when " NONE OF THE ABOVE" choice is currently is second place.

I honestly wonder if the fact that another Korean blu-ray company "The Blu Collection" is also doing a Memento blu-ray (not a steelbook) had some effect on the choices of art that Kimchi could use.

i hope there is a serious reconsideration of options. option B is going to look very strange. looks like a pose guy pierce did for spread in a playgirl mag or something, with hairy armpit as the focal point? for real? for Memento ?

no seriously. really?

I was about to vote for artwork B--and then I read your post--now I'm thinking about Playgirl--don't want to vote for artwork B anymore.
 
I voted B quite quickly then had a better look and realised I don't really like any of them. The front on A is nice but don't like the back. Nor do I like the cast names on the back, ugh
 
Hmm

I also went with "None of the above". I never thought I would say this, but the Canadian Memento steelbook looks better than all 3 of these. :(

I'm a huge Memento fan and and getting a "definite" Edition is very welcome, but right now I think I would pass on all of these....

I know people have been saying that artwork B looks like a shirtless pose or something too lazy to go to back pages and find out..anyway, I knew this picture seemed familiar from the movie and it's Guy holding the picture in his mouth while putting a shirt on

The reason why I think many people are drawn to artwork B is the fact it's unique..The whole movie is him trying to piece his memories back together if I recall correctly and a puzzle is a unique way to do it. My opinion though..

Perhaps if they used a different scene or shifted the artwork so more people could tell hes putting a shirt on as opposed to posing you his armpits..

edit: hopefully the picture works now lol

People are very serious about picking up artwork.

pick what you like and dislike.

That's why I add none of above and make public.

This is not comfirmed artwork,

just drawing first steelbook design to share feeling with HDN members.I will upload second drawing which is much different than those 3 artworks here.

enjoy and share your idea how it should be look like until final artwork has been choosen.

I've not voted as I can't decide which design is better.
I think A is stronger than B, but as its been used many times before for amarays it doesn't feel worthy of a steelbook edition

Why the backwards 'E' and 'N'? Because of the way the story is told? Or has it been used before in official artwork (can't find any)? A bit too literal if you ask me.

Thanks for the info Choi!

We (well, most of us at least) understand the constraints that Kimchi (and other retailers) have to go through to get a specific artwork approved by the studio.

That being said, none of these 3 even remotely appeals to me and I voted "none of the above". Here's to hoping (in my case) the second drawing will offer sthg more appealing :)

Depending if you're left handed or right handed, how do you see the image on the back cover of choice "C" ? Do you see the shape in black or red color ???

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills! How is option B winning by a landslide? B and C both look like they were designed in a Photoshop 101 project. Not professional at all, sorry Kimchi. I voted for A because it's the only one that looks decent, but it's not an original design and the back tagline is out of place. I think I'd like to change my vote to None of the Above as these are below par for Kimchi. The slip must be amazing for me to buy this now.
 
I never thought I would consider the Canadian Memento steelbook, what with 'from the director of Dark Knight and Inception' plastered on the front, but now it's on my ebay watch list.
 
Type A. It's the only one with good artwork fitting for the movie.

Agreed. If they only do Option B I won't even want to get this steelbook. Maybe they can do two versions. After all, that has been done before...

Oh well, if everyone picks Option B it will just save me some money.

option A is the best IMO

Really thought I was gonna replace my Canadian Steelbook with this, but now that I see the artwork options, I'll hold on to that one. Unlike Tangled or Amélie, this release of Kimchi's nothing special.
 
Come on guys... Choi said this isn't the final art work. It's just the first drawing, there will probably be more options to come.
