axldelarge's artwork is so much better than what we've seen from kimchi...

 

[Gadget]

The way things are going I'll still be buying the boring Canadian one.

 

[RekLess]

Type C is just some random short guy in a suit.

A or B are both really great choices.

 

[AlexMacOl]

I think the new type C would be fantastic with high-gloss treatment and would be something new in Memento steelbooks.

By the way Choi, it would be an improvement if this release could have more subtitles and audio tracks. I'm fine with english and french but I really would appreciate if this could have brazilian portuguese subtitles and audio track (for it already exists and I think it is simple for Blue to acquire them). Nevertheless, I'll buy this one anyway.

 

[scorpion83]

I love both A & B. C seems so bland IMO.

 

[GVZER]

If you took that bottom banner away from C and put the standard Memento font, it would be my preference. I think B is too busy. I'd just stick to the widespread artwork, A it is.

 

[severo]

A first attempt

this is my "green iron man"

TYPE A

Type A does look better without the puzzle pieces. Font should be changed on the title and tagline.

The first draft of Type B was the best. Now the back looks off with the black and white image.

Never liked the art for Type C - doesn't fit with the tone of the film. Looks like a spiritual drama.

None look even close to as good as axldelarge's. If the slip is equally meh I'll be passing on this release.

 

[Real Steel]

The way things are going I'll still be buying the boring Canadian one.

The Canadian release looks classy by comparison.

 

[terry44]

At the moment I am not feeling any love for this steelbook. We will see how it goes before I make my decision to buy or not.

 

[RekLess]

I really like the fingerprint swirl effect on artwork A. The more I look, the more I'm really liking that artwork now. (Looks much better without the puzzle effect.)

 

[nicblue]

The effect on A is pretty cool. I still think B is the more 'complete' looking steelbook for this movie (if that's the right word to use..) the font, spine, back art is imo more appealing than A or C.

If A wins and judging by facebook likes it will (unsure if kimchi takes that seriously though) I just hope they change the font.

Also brb making 100 fake facebook accounts to like art B...

 

[DJ IXS]

The reversed E and the red lettering make it look like an Eminem album cover and type A is just overused art from the DVD

 

[Hella]

IMO, Type B is the best so far, although as someone said, the back artwork needs to be in color to tie it all together. That and uncrop the bottom edges of the Polaroid on the cover, scoot everything up a little, and you've got the only solid option. The other two do absolutely nothing for me.

All that said, that fan art by axldelarge there would be amazing. Especially with a bit of shine-through on all the scrawl? Pfffft.

 

[severo]

all 3 choices look ok, but just not good enough for a kimchi exclusive imho.
if the studio is hardheaded with the approval of the artwork, and appreciates mediocre "official" artwork more than spectacular fan art, i'd rather drop this release completely than to do it just "ok".

most reactions are "i'd go with type (X), but change this and that..."
it should be: everybody

i mean it's a kimchi exclusive, i wouldn't release it until everyone says YES THAT'S IT!

 

[GVZER]

It seems like the 3 choices have been updated based on Facebook. Don't know if this has been posted. If not please update options OP

A

B

CView attachment 74596

I want A or B for sure. But partial to the B artwork.

Edit: After looking at it a bit more, option C is pretty cool too

 

[GVZER]

Love that they are using Bunny dojo 's artwork for Option A.

 

[urbeenjammin]

It was posted on page 15.you have option A and C backwards.

 

[severo]

urbeenjammin is right, so i accidentally thanked you, g:box.

 

[urbeenjammin]

You can see how their facebook page throws you off a little bit when they show you the new choices.they have it backwards...without giving anything away...you will eventually know why this is...
