One thing I hate about Australian Blu ray/DVD releases

The UK one is smaller, and does not detract from the artwork as much, granted having two on there is stupid, but its a damn sight better than what we're treated to here in Australia.

My only gripe with the UK releases is how markedly different they are to their US counterparts. Different colour schemes, critics comments splashed all over the cover, and if 3D, the banner across the top taking up 1/5 of the space for the art.

I don't understand why the art is not uniform.

The thing about this Blu-ray-Nut, is that you commonly find these sorts of complaints in every section. I've seen comments in the UK section where UK members have stated that out of all countries that put ratings logos on the front covers, that they still believe theirs are the ugliest. In the U.S section members complain that their releases often receive the worst photoshopped covers, or that they don't get as many limited editions such as Steelbooks, compared to the rest of the world. It's strange how the opinions from each nation differs, and how often people think what other nations have is better. The truth is, often no one is satisfied with the releases that their country receives. Packaging seems to just make so many people on here go crazy, I've never seen such a level of OCD from people. I've come across quite a number of comments where members have stated that they spend countless hours staring at their collections, where they even grab titles from their shelves and just sit down and look at them admiring artwork. I tell you what, if my fiancée saw me acting like this she would think I was a bit of a pathetic loser. I find myself almost always satisfied by not worrying about packaging, and I'm sure I'm a lot happier for it too. To be honest I would guarantee that most average people would prefer the look of my collection, where I've chosen to use the shelves as the main focal point to display it instead of the titles themselves and their packaging
