Jurassic Shark 12,033 Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Is the back cover of ROTJ based on the actual back cover of the RSO release? I ask because the Polydor release looks entirely different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rough cut 1,714 Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 I think discussing the quality of cover art is as important as discussing the quality of the movie. They’re both linked to our appreciation to the music (albeit in a very subjective way). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jurassic Shark 12,033 Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 I think the new covers should use the comic sans font, just to underline that they're crap. Ricard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I can tell: You didn't provide any new information about this release, so in his eyes you are spamming the thread with non-essential information. He sees the thread has been posted in, and expects it to be some new information or something, and is annoyed when it is not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arpy 4,145 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 It looks like they didn't even try. They probably didn't even pay an artist to put them together, the marketing guys just did it at 3 in the morning: "Fuck, I've gone through Google images for five minutes and I just can't decide...hmmm...

Scarpia 132 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 No. Disney is a big company that can afford anything, so they decided to go big, and hired a Hyperrealist artist to paint the new covers in a style indistinguishable from a Paint design, which would be logical considering they are investing in a full transfer and remastering, only to edit incomplete historical presentations of the score.
