"The Graphite Collection" - DVD Covers

Thanks everyone for your generous words.

I still have 3 more covers to make, for the DROIDS and EWOKS cartoons and for the EWOKS tv movies. I want to put together a COMPLETE set for every Star Wars disc someone might be spinning.

I'm also planning to make the SPECIAL FEATURES case available in additional sizes beyond the single/double you see here.

However, I could use some help in putting together a list of various prevalent feature discs that are currently available. There is of course the official features disc that was made available with the box set. There are also several different versions of the DEFINITIVE EDITION disc as well. What other unique bonus discs are available?

Actually, I've sort of been thinking about doing a set based around McQuarrie's concept art. I sort of wanted to model it around the covers for the current paperback series of Frank Herber's DUNE novels, i.e. just a small piece of artwork surrounded by lines and rectangles.

You can't see it in these images, but each of these (excepting CLONE WARS) has a small window on the back with a piece of McQuarrie art on it that relates to each film.

Speaking of which, anybody have a large scan of that classic poster concept? The one with the concept vader looming over the heroes? It's the one that appears on the official DVD Special Features disc.

Also, still needing a textless E-III poster...

The Star Wars Saga DVD Box Set

You wouldn't even need that kind of capacity.

DVDs have had Seamless Branching Technology integrated into them for a long, long time now...look at James Cameron. Almost each one of his films has incorporated Seamless Branching in order to offer both the theatrical and Director's Cuts of his films (The Abyss, Terminator 2, Aliens). Fox has proved that they are masters of the technology.

How about putting the original, remastered Theatrical Versions as well as the new DVD cuts onto dvd using Seamless Branching? That way, you simply choose what you want to see at the initial menu, and it all plays smoothly. This way, you only have to put the ADDITIONAL footage on the disc rather than 2 full movies.
