well my order was cancelled

I don't understand why they change the artwork. The last one was much better .

Anyway i am going to wait and see pictures first and decide later .

 

[goufcustom]

Will there be any other TGG steelbook releases? Cause it seemed all asians are metalpak (HK, TW, TH)... anyway even they're metalpaks but I think the artwork is way better than this one...

 

[SteelbookGuy]

This has to be the single most appalling example of abandoning artistic integrity for commercial visibility.

I know it's just a steelbook, but what on earth were they thinking?

Zavvi this is your chance to do an Exclusive! I'm sure we'd all choose the original art over this appalling photoshop version!

artwork is lame lame lame

 

[kezzar111]

Hopefully they will notice the number of preorders going down and change it back. Hopefully...

I agree with the artwork change, dreadful. I just have one quick question. The amazon link is region free but the zavvi link claims region b. Is there a reason zavvi never has region free movies? If he does I sure can't find them. I've had to pass on many good steels from his site because of this.

Zavvi always state region B mate.

As its Warner it will no doubt be region free.

finally got around to cancelling my amazon order for this today as well... think the original artwork could have been phenomenal (especially if they had considered embossing the pattern and title), but the new one just doesn't cut it for me. I was iffy on the movie already and this new artwork just seals the deal for me as a non-purchase.

As others have said hoping the number of cancelled orders for this may give them a good sign of the feedback on the new artwork- save the commercial visibility for the standard amray versions (or at most a slipcover of some sort)

Horrible new artwork, really loved the old one. At least I saved some money

Liked the original artwork, Not really a fan of the new one :/

Watched about 3/4 of the film on my plane home yesterday, still interested in getting this despite the change in art work (I also preferred the original btw)

Some smart-arse has been printing out the bad reviews on amazon.co.uk which reflect the artwork change: http://www.amazon.co.uk/review/R8US...glance&nodeID=283926&store=dvd#wasThisHelpful

I think we should all, politely, correct this eejit!

 

[ricster]

That review won't be up long

 

[Apinamakina]

What was the old artwork like?

^ Wow, that would have been pretty awesome looking steelbook if it was glossy and embossed. I personally don't think the current one is actually bad, but the previous was better.

Movie itself was good but not the kind that I would watch again so no steelbook for me.

 

[cube]

Yep.. badly changed artwork
I like the movie, but won't buy it as a Amaray..
