At the time the films were made, Will Smith was an up and comer, like Martin Lawrence. Now, of course, Smith is a huge superstar, and Lawrence is still a "B" lister. I feel like Smith should have first billing. I also consider Smith's character to be the more prominent in the movies. So, I exercised a cover designer's prerogative.

Great choices Robert. BB1 is perfect! BB2 feels a bit off next to the first one, which I think this one works, but at the end of the day you still have creative control.

Thanks for doing these for all of us!

At first I didn't catch the name switch. I caught the Will Smith on the spine of I and Lawrence on the spine of II. But I agree Smith carried these movies. It's a shame he won't star in the recently announced Bad Boys 3 & 4. He will just serve as producer.

Fair enough. Makes sense.

Smith is not going to be in them?! Wow. Between that and Bay not coming back the wind has really been taken out of my sails. I've been clamoring for a Bad Boys 3 forever, and was soo pumped to finally hear news it might be happening, but this doesn't really sound like Bad Boys...

Can anyone recommend an online printshop to print your blu-ray covers? Any place that doesn't require multiple copies or give you a hard time about copyrighted images? Thanks

Robert George · 09-21-2015, 12:56 AM

Just waiting for final specs...

stardragon9 · 09-21-2015, 03:41 AM

Here is another RCA cover, this time for Karate Kid part III (I am trying to work of the 4th movie as well as the remake)

as usual, if anyone would like a copy send me a pm.

Robert George · 09-22-2015, 01:25 AM

Here's something I put together sort of on a whim. I think it looks better than Kino's so I'm posting it.

bipbop13 · 09-22-2015, 08:36 AM

is there anyone who can make the "Easy Money" cover for the upcoming double feature of Easy Money/Men At Work? I think a lot of us that get this will be wanting to split it up

Just FYI, both movies are on a single disc.

Did this for Mad Max: Fury Road. Have made similar covers for the other three, and wanted this to look the same. Always liked the original Warner uniform cases, so how could I resist. When I can be bothered, I am going to get around to scanning my original Warner Blade Runner and making a repro cover for it. Anyway, forgive the rather poor photo, but you get the idea...

Love that retro cover. I've seen lots of good creations in this thread, and that's the first that has made me think about getting....awesome job!

I love Phantoms too.

How does that Canadian version differ from the one on the 3 pack version?
For instance, does it have OAR or better compression?

I think that the cover looks kind of weird and I think I should maybe do something different with it, but I don't know what. If anyone has any suggestions, I'm all ears!

Looks good. I am not too keen on reviewer quotes. Perhaps add some screencaps on back and the movie tagline. But I like the front alot.

I like the first one for China as well.

And Charlie looks awesome.

The one I have is the 3 movie feature. I made a Phantoms cover because that's what I bought it for, not Darkness or Venom.

I don't think that Phantoms is on Blu-ray by itself.

I thought about the screencaps and such, but there weren't any real good ones to enhance my cover.

It would be a better idea to ask him for the links instead of asking others for them.
