Now it's a big f-you to Blu-Ray owners. I think I'll pick up the Dvd just so every time someone looks at my Blu-Ray collection their eyes don't immediately direct to the binding of "Super 8."

Thank God they revised the DVD artwork. I wish they wouldn't have added those pictures at the bottom, it would have been just fine without them. But anything's better than that atrocious red/yellow combination.
I'm with the ones saying the DVD got it best now, why nit change the bluray cover? To give the best of both worlds they could have used the yellow for a slipcover then just use the new DVD artwork for the inner case.
Oooo! I like the new cover art!
Meh. I hate when a studio puts so much effort into an iconic image (i.e. the sideways Super 8 or terminal silhouettes for Up in the Air) and then ditch it, because they want to do something new. They are throwing away all of that emotional capital built up from the pre-release campaign.

Totally agree.
Totally agree.
Love the DVD artwork too.
They should have somehow got the rights to that poster that looked like Drew Struzan drew it. That is a great poster.
