Saw this in the cinema and its not something that would stand repeat viewing so i'll abstain on the vote although I would say that the second option is the more powerful image but doesn't really convey the stories premise.
Option one is just a generic straight to video cheapo Photoshop effort typical of today's lazy movie poster designers.
 
I agree with hubmuswell, I like both arts, can we have option 1 as cover bcuz the title olympus was referring to the white house and art 2 as the back. If I recall there was a scene with the burning flag. I enjoyed the movie, lots of action. Better than the last die hard movie. The Korean villain leader was pure evil. I will wait until I get this steelbook to watch it again :)
 
This is closer than the other polls have been correct? Well that should say something if so. I prefer 2, but I take no issue with choice 1.
 
A burning flag is going to upset a LOT of Americans.

Option 1 at least seems relevant to the movie. Take away the title and option 2 could be any one of a dozen or more movies. I'm buying the regular blu ray, I think it's released on August 13.
 
The flag is already burned on option 1 and it's burning on option 2, so really, if the flag being destroyed bothers you, then this steelbook is not for you! Personally, it doesn't bother me (it's only a movie folks), so I pre-ordered two! I hope option 2 wins but it doesn't look like it right now.

The burned/tattered flag is not the centerpiece of the steelbook unlike image 2.


I would be against it if it was any other countries flag too.. it's just not a good marketing tool no matter what the movie or subject matter is..
