Overlord and La Haine are great. They're evocative!Yojimbo and Sanjuro covers are forgotten, what exactly were they supposed to be? Rorschach tests?

Well the tops of them look black. I guess I didn't spend enough time looking at it to spot the clear part on the bottom.

As soon as I saw the first eclipse box, I knew they were going to use the same template for each box and just change the colors. Call it the buffy the vampire slayer approach to dvd set design.

I like the packaging look of Eclipse. I hope they keep all of them with this same uniform style. Simple yet classy.

yeah, that decided it. if i can figure out a way to justify it financially, i'm gonna blind buy the malle docs - after seeing that box and reading about a few of the films, i'm pretty sold.

Maybe they came up with the color palette in their lunch break.

Now lets just hope the boxes are sturdy, and they package the DVDs in the thin amaray cases.

Looking and press release for the first set, they do have a cover for each title.

Well that's good to hear. Anyone know what the price difference on doing Six Moral Tales style digis vs. thin-paks?
