My guess is, this could end up using the amaray artwork which I don’t mind, love both arts and love the film...

The Shape of Water, Three Billboards..., Ready Player One, all good news, but what still makes me looking forward the most is Blade Runner 2049...

THANK YOU @Apollon for the heads up!

This is VERY exciting news, indeed. I only have one Manta package so far- and that's the release of Constantine- but boy- is it a beauty.
My only hope is that MantaLabs WEA artwork for the steelbook isn't the same as the artwork on the filmarena slip. That image is nice and all- but it's so overused that I'm just tired of seeing it.
Really hoping that Manta does something NEW and interesting, since the HMV Steelbook seems to be using the most ideal version of artwork anyways...

Constantine tops the list of my favorite Manta Lab releases right next to Logan.

Let's wait and see what ML come up with. Hopefully they won't face too much hassle with Fox for approval.

I still haven't had the time to watch it yet (GDT forgive me), but I think I'll like it.

Make sure you watch the movie, first. I had high hopes, but was disappointed. The visuals and music were great. The movie itself was an artsy copy cat of
Beauty and the Beast.
I'm sure Manta will release a phenomenal set, but this is one I'll pass on.

I love GDT's work, so, we'll see. :)
 
Is this exclusive only somewhat likely to happen, very likely to happen or certain to happen?

Sounds like the Film Arena version is going to be very difficult to get so it would be nice to know if they’ll be a backup.

Thanks.
