This is just the artwork for the Star Trek Blu-ray in its early stages. It looks okay, but not great. I hope Paramount will revise the artwork real soon.

I kind of like it. Wasn't that the design of one of the official movie posters?

[krazyclown]

It's Horrid, needs to stand out more

[benricci]

it's a little bland. I would love to see something like this used instead:

+1. I think that cover art for BDs should be exceptional.

The print art for this movie was generally crap anyway. But, as I said in another forum, the cover could be a picture of a paper bag and I'd still get this movie day 1.

I absolutely love that poster. I hope they keep it.

[Halfwasted]

Wow that artwork is ugly, WTF is it supposed to be anyways?

[Adam.C]

looks good to me, although its hard to tell what it is

I think it's absolutely hilarious that when studios mess with the artwork (floating heads, etc.) there are complaints left and right about how the original poster artwork wasn't used. Now, in this case, it is - and there's still complaints.

Paramount seems to like to make their DVD/BD art more abstract.
They never try to make them covered in flames and mist and lightning like many Fox releases are.
They usually are the movie posters, but "cleaner".
Look at the Transformers artwork, it's just Optimus Prime against a white background.
The Iron Man artwork, was Iron Man, no floating heads of the cast or quotes from reviewers. Just Iron Man, with Stark underneath the slipcase.
This one is just the movie's one-sheet, but my problem with it is that the text is enormous and detailed. If it was smaller, it wouldn't clash with the nice calm black and white photo of the enterprise. It'd beautiful in my opinion, but now half the image is this huge logo.

i like it.

its the same poster i got from work.

and the other picture that someone else posted.
there is just too much going on. i wouldnt like that as the cover.

I don't care what the cover art looks like, I'm not buying a piece of "cover art", I'm buying the movie thats inside the box. Lets hope they do a good job with the technical aspects of the movie on blu instead of worrying about what's on the box!

I could care less about the cover. the PQ and AQ on the disc are all that matter.

I like the original art from the poster. I'm not a fan of the art with "floating heads".

+100. It always baffles me on the arguments about cover art. Do you all just sit and stare at this stuff for like hours. I buy Blu for PQ and AQ thats it. Really ?

I wish they would stop throwing "Digital Copy" on the cover. It should not even be in the damn case. Digibooks handle it perfectly, put a sticker on the plastic wrapping and give it it's own little seperate sleeve.
