Hmm, this says that I should probably gouge my eyes out.

This is America, we should expect bad cover art

Yeah I like the John Woo style cover art better too

Weak. It's just the sized-down movie poster.

Horrible compared to this absolut beaut: http://www.cowboybebop.org/door/dvd/index.html

Click, I will take the one I posted over yours. It just look cooler, and whats up with the dude with Pumking head reaching his hands for tied up Faye

Werewolf, I know its US, but look at Bebop series covers - Do you thing they are bad? I didnt think so. So why go and fuck up the movie dvd cover?

Because Bebop TV is Bandai.

Bebop Movie is Sony. You'd think Sony would know what good covers look like, since they had a nice one with Metropolis, but I guess different people are handling this one. They could also be going for character recognition -- with this cover, you know instantly that it's Bebop because Spike and Faye are promenant. The other cover is prettier, but not as obvious since Spike is the only known Bebop character on it. They must have thought that could impact sales, so they went with the more straight-forward cover.
