Worst Covers - Blu-ray Forum

Sussudio · 10-08-2008, 09:08 PM

i know people have already talked about best blu-ray covers, but what are some of the worst ones people have come across, or ones where the movie poster should have been used and weren't?

i'll start off with hancock. because...well it sucks.

So Far it will be ELECTION DVDtimes posted the cover art today and they are opting to use the new badly photoshopped image.

I personally can't stand the slip cover for iron man and transformers. I typically throw them away because I don't like them

. But I find myself unable to do so becasue it's compltely different from the reg plastic insleave so I have to keep it.

Thats all I've come arcoss so far.

Sussudio · 10-08-2008, 09:13 PM

i was actually about to say iron man (the 2-disc). kind of cartoonish looking, but maybe that's what they were going for. i think the single disc cover was much better, even though it's only available for dvd

Looks like a bad photoshop job, I wish it was the regular poster. I also don't like the name "Family Fun Edition".

Ranger-R · 10-08-2008, 09:16 PM

didn't care for the Twister one, wish they could of done something more updated.

King Leonidas · 10-08-2008, 09:20 PM

I wish they would do a better cover art for all old catalog title's that get a blu-ray transfer, make it better than the original, do something new, different to it at least..

PowellPressburger · 10-08-2008, 09:20 PM

Twister was very similer to the original poster artwork. I did like updating otherwise you get what SONY does to say Flatliners on standard DVD.

WB is usually good with using good looking images

Sussudio · 10-08-2008, 09:22 PM

i think i'll go ahead and throw the Terminator 2 + 3 blurays in there. everyone knows what arnold's face looks like. is there nothing else they could add in there? at least the first one has him holding a gun.

King Leonidas · 10-08-2008, 09:27 PM

I like the 300 cover, but of all the pictures and posters for that film i've seen, i would've imagined they could've done better

in complete agreement. people were talking about that in another thread. the new cover looks like a video game. maybe it will be a flippable like there will be blood but im betting not.

johnnyblackout22 · 10-08-2008, 09:43 PM

Transformers and Iron Man. No effort whatsoever put into those.
Transformers would be fine it was the cover that's ALWAYS advertised. You get it and find out it's a lame slip cover.

Same with Iron Man

alphadec · 10-08-2008, 09:52 PM

worst cover must be cover for the bond film coming on BD now in october. Looks like MGM can never do cover right they just have to have some insane artist run amok with photoshop.

most definitely concur. i had hoped the first casino royale release would have that cover, and am very glad the new one does (so much cooler looking).

gaeljet · 10-08-2008, 10:20 PM

Sharpei · 10-08-2008, 10:34 PM

xradman · 10-08-2008, 10:49 PM
