YES!!!
I presume this is the same disc as the upcoming remaster?

Bullitt · 08-02-2017, 07:37 PM

Not fussed on it which is a shame as I'd have liked a steelbook of this.

It won't be as this says MGM and not Arrow on the spine.

ConDers · 08-02-2017, 07:44 PM

I'm not sure if I have seen this or not but that artwork is great. Picking this up as well, keep them coming zavvi!

Ditto.

There's a lot going on in that image, but I kinda like it. I'm just not crazy about the color scheme, which kknd of screams G.I. Joe when I look at it.

somebodys_kid · 08-03-2017, 12:46 AM

If it's not the remastered version, I'll buy this AND the arrow release and just shove the arrow disc in this one. Worth a double dip.

It's in the colors of the French flag.

Kind of, but I don't link the French flag with that shade of blue. With it being slanted the way it is, I actually think they should have switched the red and blue colors around. Like I said, every time I look at it, I see this..

edit: A deeper color scheme would look better, and be closer to the French flag's colors.

My thoughts exactly.

Love the movie but not liking the cover.

They screwed it up. I think it's supposed to resemble the colors of the French flag, as the the movie plays out in France, but they got it wrong as the flag is vertical blue, white and red... Oh well, the cover is ugly anyway. They could've done something with that briefcase everyone's after in the movie.

They're actually overdoing it with the France motif, having the Paris landscape displayed on both guns. It's overkill, but then again, two automatics on the front is literally overkill so yeah

imsounoriginal · 08-03-2017, 01:07 AM

Artwork's too busy, makes it look like a videogame or a Taken sequel.

kryptonite1970 · 08-03-2017, 02:30 AM

If the price is right, I will triple dip on this one.

Seriously why is anyone considering purchasing this?? Its the old disc!!

TheHutt · 08-03-2017, 08:05 AM

Ugly artwork. Film disc will become obsolete once Arrow's release is out. Easy pass.

JimDiGriz · 08-03-2017, 10:20 AM

Jeez! Is anyone really thinking of buying this?!

For one thing its a contender for worst steelbook art of all time. And for another thing its got an ancient disc in there when there is a remastered one coming out very soon.

This one will be down to £8 in no time - just watch.
