It's definitely a lot better than the Invasion Of The Body Snatchers Quatermass cover. Would still have been nice to have seen it in the original colour scheme though.

I can understand that i was not impressed with my Land of the Dead Blu Ray having a big banner on the end of it sayin the ultimate high definition experience
takes away from the look of it.

Great artwork and, as the Double Play thing is a sticker, that makes it even better.

I can understand wanting great cover art/packaging, but for me the important thing, probably the only real important thing too, at that, is the film contained on the disc. It's all about the film for me. I like nice packaging, the Arrow packages being a case in point, but poor cover art will never turn me off buying a film I really want. That's just me. Yes, I'd prefer great cover art, but if the only way to get a film I really want is to have it housed within a poor cover, then so be it. I'll watch the film more than the cover.

And this isn't a dig at people who are specific about their wants when it comes to packaging. I'm just saying it's less of an issue for me, personally. Mind you, I will comment if a cover boasts truly hideous artwork.

I can't get my head around it either. And I have tried to!

I've bought limited editions and ones with better artwork but the PQ/AQ still has to be the best as well.

If I really want a film And there's no option I'd take it in a blank sleeve.

My concern is that it'll be stuck on the slipcover like their QUATERMASS bd...

Was that not easily removeable?

From experience, slipcovers are glossy so those stickers can be removed (if done so slowly and carefully) without any damage to the packaging and I hope that's the case here.

I'm a cover and artwork fanatic,but it won't stop me buying a good film I want to see if the cover is shite.
