Agreed. Like a bizarre Mosaic Puzzle in shaes of vulgar mustard & green.

Art for the forthcoming criterion release of scanners. People on Facebook seem to love it but I think i'm sticking with the UK release.

Anyone know when I can actually buy those code red blus BTW?

I get paid monday and fancy ordering all of them.

Jesus!

Glad I bought that lovely steelbook.

Glad its not just me who hates it!

Weirdly a lot of people on facebook seem to love it.

I don't like it either and I usually love their covers.

As a piece of art, it's pretty good. It doesn't suit the box set cover aesthetic though.

The image of Michael Ironside is so iconic. I find a lot of Criterion covers try to be high brow and for lack of a better phrase, arty farty.

And of course their can only be two kinds of people in regards to "artsy fartsy". Those who see it as pretentious nonsense and those who just see it as a picture. I'm the latter.

I'm the former I'm afraid.

I think the Criterion artwork for Scanners is awesome, can't wait to get that edition.

Art is art, IMHO, it's all a lot better than anything I could do.
