X-Men: Apocalypse (3D+2D Blu-ray SteelBook) (HMV Exclusive) [UK]
- Thread starter GinjaNinja18
- Start date
I don't see it being barebones silver, definitely looks to me as if it has some light effect coming from behind apocalypse
Not the best decision - the new artwork - with head looking "the wrong way" ("wrong way" as personally always prefer heads looking to the left on covers) - but maybe the steelbook can be saved with better choices for the inside and back (?)
The poster artwork for the original mock-up possibly rejected in the end because of its classical reference as well as for its similarity to the image used for HAIDER (an adaptation of Shakespeare's "Hamlet" from India).

HAMLET in film:-
(1) David Tennant 2009 (2) Kenneth Branagh1996 (3) Mel Gibson 1990 (4) Derek Jacobi 1980 (4) Laurence Olivier 1948
2 choices for the inside:-
1) If this powerfully dramatic image could not be used for the front then maybe it can be used for the inside with the same image on the 3D disc (as on the DVD).
2) Copy of the Amaray art which I believe matches the disc art:-
For the back I'm sticking with this simple buy effective image:-
or
Blu-ray disc art:-

Anybody who prefers the artwork chosen for this steelbook to the Shakespeare Hamlet inspired artwork suffers from a serious lack of artistic sensibilities.

That new artwork is dope as hell. I liked the first art, but this is slick. Will look nice next to the previous two. Consider me happy!

I like it! Still worried that it might end up being metallic though.
Dont say that.....
Back same as one of the official posters but only as far as the border hieroglyphs are concerned . . . centre image different as can be seen.
Original poster designed by GRAVILLIS, INC (SOUTHPAW, 2 GUNS et al) from original artwork by JUSTIN ERICKSON.
Original poster has a parchment look to it which should hopefully be carried over to the steelbook which should have an off-white not cream and not grey colouring old paper look.
The best colouring for the background of this steelbook is as seen on the ISLAND OF LOST SOULS (Eureka - May 2012) front more than on any other U.K. steelbook and hopefully not metallic like THE WOLVERINE (Fox - HMV Excl. Nov. 2013) and a mass of others.
Oops (DVD logo):-
