Every other retailers has changed the artwork, and most likely Amazon will change theirs as well (they are just slower at updating their listings). I am not buying this, however, I even can tell that the original artwork was superior. Each to their own of course.

It's a shame if they scrap the original design. It was literally what I envisioned it would look like after I first saw the movie.

If they're sticking with this new design then I'm definitely going to cancel mine

The movie was a little weak for Leo...I'm still going to end up buying it though...

Got a poll going, please voice your opinion here too:

Mods, is there anyway we can add this poll link to the OP?

Haha I said earlier that I hadn't been interested in this but would buy the steel based on the art. Pretty happy to be able to save.

I actually preferred the original artwork posted. But will still get this as I really enjoyed the movie.

Maybe the Image with Leo dicaprio on is just a clear Slipcover over the Steelbook underneath??

That's what I have been thinking but I doubt that would be the case.

What in the world did they do with the artwork? Who makes such a decision? Stevie Wonder?
Saves me some money as I have to cancel now...

 

[Slaughtermom]

Looks like a clear slip to me. If so: Freddy has finally found a friend

I also preferred the original artwork to this, hopefully if everyone votes in the poll it could change but I would imagine this to be unlikely as its not a chavvi exclusive. It would be better and far more useful if and when changes occur the retailers actually confirmed what the changes are exactly, it would save a lot of speculation at the very least. If this is the final art and I highly suspect it is, then this is a real let down compared to what we had first of all.

 

[Flloydo]

Amazon have also changed it now

 

[PKAVFC]

Well, at least it means I have saved some cash. What a shocking decision. Might pick it up when it's 9.99!

Order cancelled!

Wow. I was really hoping UK would be getting an awesome steel... I really liked the film and I'm really conflicted about what edition should I get now since in Romania we get the MetalPack and the Collector's Edition with a slipcover with similar art as the original UK steelbook:

Could you point me in the direction of this Collector's Edition you've posted photos of? That slipcover is now the best artwork this film has!

Sure:

The Collector's Edition is being released as far as I know in Romania, the Czech Republic, Hungary and Slovakia. I think only filmarena ships internationally.

I dont understand why they changed it. I liked the last one way more, but I still like this one, but its like they gave us a present, and then took it away from us before we even got it :/

 

[gitsurfer]

From wonderful to awful in one easy step. A steaming turd would be more aesthetically pleasing than this new artwork.

And now Taiwan as listed on jsdvd.

Obviously, Amazon may change the artwork at any moment, but does anyone have a clue as to what region Indian Steelbook releases like this are usually encoded as? This may be still be an option... amazon.in/gp/aw/d/B00EOJQARA
