Wanted: Batman DVD cover

Okay, we all know to buy the 2-disc widescreen DVD of Batman Begins. My only problem is this: The cover for the single-disc version is WAY cooler, in my opinion. Would someone be willing to make a custom cover with the single disc picture on the front, but with info on all the special features and stuf from the 2-disc set on there? Here's the two pics:

Single disc

2-disc


And for the single-disc, it would be nice if that Ebert & Roeper quote were removed.

Thanks for anyone who decides to do this.

( A link to a printable version would be very nice indeed!)

Yeah, the single disc IS cooler. There should've just been one release. There doesn't seem to be a point to these multiple versions.

I'd love to see a Begins fan edit with some stuff cut out (i.e. Katie Holmes) for fun.

I made one this morning... I liked the art for the 2 disk better, and made that work for the single disk.
Cheers!

Uh, I meant to take the pic off the front of the single-disc and use it to make a cover for the double disk



Although that one is really awesome.

Sorry, I did not do this cover to satisfy your request. I didn't even notice your request till well after I had finished. Just seemed appropriate to share in here.

The Coov cover is awesome. One thing I don't like about the Begins artwork though, is the logo/font. Esp. the font, which reminds me of the terrible font used for Batman Forever and Batman & Robin. My favorite Batfont is the one used in the comics logo in the late '80's (circa Death in the Family storyline), which has thankfully returned to the comics in a sort of new version after way too many years of the bad Forever font. And I still like the design on Burton's '89 Batman poster.

The font from the Batman Begins posters looks nothing like the ones from Batman Forever and Batman & Robin.

It'd be relatively easy to place the front of the single disc cover on top of the 2-disc one and just replace the quote. Just need to find scans.

It reminds me of those because it just looks like a lame barebones font that someone chose. Like, "Ooh, Comic Sans!" or something. It's not much of a design.

I'm personally annoyed by the Batman Forever & Batman & Robin fonts since it seems to be on everything associated with Batman. It's not a terrible font, just overused.

I like the font chosen for the Batman Begins. It's definitely simple and in that regard, I think it's in constrast to the Batman Forever & Batman & Robin font which looks a little overdone IMHO. I've always had a problem with the Batman movie fonts. The original film's looks kinda lame and too 80's but the Batman Returns font isn't bad, just typical Times New Roman looking thing.

The Batman Begins font just seems classy to me. Not elaborate at all, and it reminds me of the original Alien movie font. Just clean cut and to the point.

Very nice, sybeman!


Ya know what'd be even better? Keep that, but change to font to that on Coov's cover. (not the logo, just the font.)

Perhaps, but I'm not really a graphic artist or that. I just copied the cover of one and pasted it on the other. That's why it still says Widescreen rahter than 2-Disc Deluxe
