Hi All!

Here is my latest design:

Beastly



Same rules apply.

^ your cover for that is even better than the movie was

Flattering imitation, I must say. Too similar for a coincidence. I saw it somewhere few years ago and absolutely loved it. Didn't know it was yours to be honest.

Actually that cover is perfect! It's the exact artwork I had in mind and what I was using when I had tried making the cover. The only thing is the spine doesn’t match the season sets. Would you be able to make a version that says season 10?

This on the cover with original back and #683 on the spine


With the number, #779 and original back and blue criterion boxes (spine)

Thanks,
Gui.

Since there's actually nothing online for both Mulholland Dr. & Nashville criterions, I, as a very UNSKILLED guy decided to scan the slip boxes and try to make something with paint. (a dumb proof app)

First I'm posting the 2 covers I made but I don't want to hear any complains about them as they're not the right size, I just made them to have the criterions boxes the same size as the original ones so I trimmed both to get them to line up with my others they also were scanned with a cheap scanner and the quality is very discutable.

Here's what my mini (ever growing) criterion collection looks like with my two additions.



Here's the covers.

Please keep in mind that I'm actually not skilled so beware.
THESE AREN'T A PERFECT FIT.
THE QUALITY IS VERY POOR.





Also does anyone knows where I could get cheap clear 14mm criterion keep cases? I'm located in Canada and those on eBay comes to a very unreasonable price with shipping. (I'm using PS3 cases for now)

As someone that only owns a handful of criterions as well, I think your editions turned out pretty good and certainly nothing to be ashamed of. As for your request, you can see if this works out to be any better of a deal for you after shipping.

I believe this site lists the style of packaging on each films page if you check each entry, but based on the titles I own or am familiar with I can state the following...

- Antichrist (standard case)
- Cronos (Standard case)
- Scanners (Digi pack)
- Videodrome (Slip cover with main videodrome cover, standard case inside with a Beta tape cover design)
- Don't Look Now (standard case)
- The Game (Standard case)

Also, they weren't on your list but Dressed to Kill and The Devil's Backbone come in standard cases as well.

Edit: Fixed an error that Jekyl pointed out below.

Yeah, I feel you dude. I went through basically the same issue last year. Being in Canada you're kinda Shit Outta Luck with case options.
I ended up finding a seller from ebay that deals out of Pickering Flea Market on weekends, that turned out to be the only viable option. Good prices, but the cases are... not the best...

Thanks for the heads up, but that site, along with all the other popular ones are still ludicrous prices for shipping.

I have Dazed and Confused and Seven Samurai, and they are both digipacks. I also have Che and it is two cases in a box cover.

The ones that weren't answered above:

- Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
- Repulsion
- Rushmore
- Thief
- The Thin Red Line
- Traffic

Are all standard cases.

Just flipped those around to clarify.

Nice work. Too bad they screwed up the release.

Don't derail the thread, but what did "they" screw up?

Audio skips. Missing audio. Repeated scene.

I would love to have the Event series cover art, but the back would need to be updated.

I also would like to have a cover for the Two movies that matches the newer cover art. So that I can fit the two movies in one case.

are these changes due able? and could you send me the links when done.

thank you,

Thanks guys, it was helpful I managed to find out about those who aren't listed in those post and will order 10 extra single disc and 5 extra double & triple disc cases. BTW JekYL casetopia isn't cheap for shipping but given the price they sell the cases for the total is somewhat "acceptable", so far it's the best option I have. (better than eBay) I'll just wait until they restock on double cases and will order.
