Jacob 0 Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 Can't say that I had one before reading this topic. After looking through a couple, I think I've decided on this one:Although I may have to concede to reb rabbit. That RotJ cover is absolutely stunning.

Farawyn 0 Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 Number 1 :(I always thought the glittering effect worked well )Silver medal : the complete editions of LOTR (nice idea, the old-fashioned leather-like cover)Bronze medal : The Dark Crystal collector's edition (fabulous score by the way ) : Brian Froud's illustration is magnificentHonorable mention : the Ultimate Edition of TPM (I know it's in cardboard, but a blue, very evil-looking Darth Maul... looks cool !)

SturgisPodmore 0 Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 Okay, this is my favorite cover!Mine also, it was a refreshing change from all those collage-style covers.~Sturgis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marian Schedenig 8,083 Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 Yeah, instead it was collage-style faces. The HPPS poster/cover was one of the best posters from the last few years.Anyway, Rhino's Ben-Hur is quite nice, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLUMENKOHL 1,068 Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 The HPPS poster/cover was one of the best posters from the last few years.Eh...as much as I appreciate Struzan, that was a weak work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Crichton 4 Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 Superman Rhino looks coolYes it does. As does the TMP Anniversary release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marian Schedenig 8,083 Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 That's what I thought at first. But it's the only cover I know from the last several years which continues the tradition of putting as many elements of the film as possible into a collage. It's not just floating heads, there's Hogwarts, Quidditch, the letter and even the scar.I do like this one. And since the thread title doesn't say anything about soundtracks, these are also great: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLUMENKOHL 1,068 Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 Well if we're doing non-Film music...then the Beatles certainly come to mind for some of the best covers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SturgisPodmore 0 Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 Yeah, Sgt. Pepper and Abbey Road for sure.Yeah, instead it was collage-style faces. The HPPS poster/cover was one of the best posters from the last few years.PoA's not a collage. I'm pretty sure the kids can in fact get that close to each other in real life.~Sturgis, who likes HP:SS very much, but likes PoA better because it's much more unique Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like this pic because of the atmosphere . . . so wintry, Christmassy, and somehow adventurous. Full of John Williams genius moments, in fact!
