The funny thing is that I actually defend the movie, but I can't defend the artwork. That was terrible.

I saw the new DVD artwork for Congo recently and thought the exact same thing. What the hell?! The original poster/cover is fantastic!
Anaconda did something simular:

I like the old, simple poster that looks a tad less Straight-to-DVD-ish:

Or maybe I'm crazy.

Well, it is better than that stupid Alien vs Predator over the globe that was the theatrical artwork.
The foreign market art was so much cooler:

Speaking of Predators:

Why go with that awful mash-up when you had this to work with:

Thats an early 90s movie, my friends.

I remember when the Matrix sequels were announced, every schmoe including me were shitting ourselves over every announcement. The sneaky on set photos of those twins, the photos of the highway made in an airway, it all looked fabulous. Then the titles were announced. I hope its not just me, but "The Matrix Reloaded" is one of the worst titles, same with "Revolutions".
The cover art is hideous too.

I always think back on the cover for BETTER OFF DEAD on VHS.
How could they get rid of Drew Struzan's great cover:

To this abomination? (Note I couldn't find a bigger pic, like the world NEEDS one!):

Agreed.
I hated that they got rid of the original poster cover VHS box when this release came out.

What kind of perhaps-Corporate? morons decide to go with these generic covers as witnessed above? This problem has plagued the several remastered James Bond flicks over the last 2 decades or so....bad-bad P.R. savvy
