Further to Joe's post below, this one really gets my blood boiling. On the left is the original theatrical poster for Zodiac. It's disturbing, brilliant and absolutely captures the essence of Fincher's near-masterpiece. The middle pic is the original DVD release box employing the dreaded "floating head" montage so loved by studio fuckwits. Notice the brilliant tension created by the bridge cables descending into the fog is gone from the DVD boxart. What the hell were they thinking? Last (and certainly least) is the latest DVD boxart for the 2 disk "Director's Cut" (or is it the "We Don't Know or Care What We're Doing" special edition?).
Boxart rents movies.
Period.

but it's like the zodiac killer sent you the dvd!
like the bonus disc came straight from the cow!
Man I hate the floating heads thing. "Ooooh the stellar cast!"
Fuck off and watch Kids.
