Jeez, that looks like one of those posters from Ghana.

I don’t know what you’re talking about, Frink. Science Fiction Perform Distinctive is the BEST Star Wars with the BEST cover art!

I’m not really that much of a movie purist. I really should’ve thought my name out a bit more.

Here are two obscure movies from the ‘70s given the infamous "copy and paste the main actors’ faces on a bland background" treatment.

I agree with everyone in this thread that I hate these types of covers with a burning passion. It sends the “cheap shitty quality TV b-movie” vibes from me and creates an awful first impression if one has never even heard of the movie. Just use the poster art for Pete’s sake! This was pretty much an epidemic in early DVD releases in the 2000s.

Fortunately, despite the 2021 Blu-Ray release of Jeremy having this rather uncanny-looking 2d cover, it still is far more professional looking, appealing to the eye, and far less lazy.

Also, yikes, this thread has a LOT of broken file links!

Bringing this thread full circle…

This is the lamest art they could have chosen for the Spider-Man trilogy in 4K:

The Spider-Man 3 black suit logo reflection in his lens is atrocious.

There are so many better simplistic choices they could have chosen.

Give me a double-sided insert!

In my opinion, most studio-commissioned retail art truly sucks, and that’s why fans end up replacing it with their own in their collections. I actually feel bad for the artists hired to make that crap though, knowing they’re probably given only limited resources and a few hours to finish it.

Looks like they took the believe in angels poster and cropped the image to the right side instead of the middle why not just do the poster centered. Those ugly rating certs are always on Euro releases. I generally don’t mind if the disc is region free for a blu-ray or its a 4k disc. Other people lose their minds if not a one sheet or theatrical poster on a Zavvi steelbook, generally i just watch the damn thing. Like I pefer Jcard, OBI or slipcover. But it’s not a deal breaker for me except for Japanese laserdisc to have an OBI. Because as insane as that is it impacts the value. That and if or not its sealed.
