Looks good, if it stays like this without any added dumb critic quotes etc, I'd be very pleased.

Would it kill them to put the correct names above the correct heads? :rolleyes

Ugly, ugly coverart by the way... I like the original poster myself...

I always think this too, but to be fair, the order of the names is probably specified in the actors' contracts (Depp is the biggest name, he goes 1st, then Rush, etc.). And for the artwork you obviously want your star biggest and in the middle, so... instant mismatch.

funny how the canadian "bi-lingual" cover art never seems to get show-cased before a dvd is released. is it because studios know this packaging "sucks" and they know that their customers think it "sucks" as well ? perhaps this kind of "thinking" could be implemented with actual released product. grrrr!

Ugh, more like "Scream on the Caribbean"!

What is it with cover designers & there over reliance on face ridden covers, well of course I know the real reason = J6P.
But at least have a dual sided option with say, holographic art with skeletons ;) Disney are you listening...

No, because AA is releasing them. God forbid they should actually do something nice for their consumers.

for a change???? the man is always good!
I'll second that, he has great presence whatever movie he is in.

I'm looking forward to this flick which opens today over here, i'll go tommorow arvo. That cover art doesn't bother me, it is the poster that is up in my local cinema. All the talk about how crappy 'floating head' covers are really doesn't bother me (with the exception of the awful Solaris cover).

They've now released the menus for the disc, although not the main menu for some reason. Doh! Anyway, there's one menu below and the rest you can view here Would slow the page up too much to post seven big menus on here.
