I know this is your opinion and all, but no one stole anything. These were released differently, that's all. The inside artwork for the Canadian release is not entirely the same as the front covers either; the Canadian release is more of a close-up of the same shot of the front cover for the others. They are similar, but there IS a difference.

I'm sure I'll get my hands on a Canadian version since it has the cleanest look overall. The banner on the cover doesn't bother me, nor does the plain back. It also comes with a digital copy of the film, which comes in handy.

Nice summary, Victor.

I think overall I like the UK version and will likely return my Future Shop versions (a first for me!).

I don't mind the blue banner, and don't really like the black back cover. I also like booklets too. I like the image of Robin Hood on a horse better than the close-up where all you see is Russell!

I like having all my SBs on a shelf with movies in them. Then I grab one down and pull out the movie and watch it.

I do have empty sealed and non-empty sealed ones too, but they are in a box in my basement. Not as much fun buying them and then putting them in a box in your basement.

Well, according to victors assessment of them, Canada's version is the worst one (I actually think the complete opposite), and it has stolen artwork. I guess Canada's version was made elsewhere since the artwork was ripped off from the others.

No artwork is actually a blessing in disguise, it enables you to create your own custom artwork!

So imo, the AUS version of Robin hood is the best:

Back cover =
front cover =
inside = (after a few minutes customising it!)

No one said you can't put artwork on top of existing artwork!

The issue with that is that even if the existing artwork stinks, it's still artwork and you can't cover up the original. Oh no you can't do that, it's blasphemy!

I take my disc out of the Steels, put the Steels in a Sleeve and never open them again so inside artwork is useless really which is why the Aussie one is the one to go for me

It's not a problem to change the front and backcovers of the steels
