Honestly, I don't think that's so bad.

I think it looks better than the teaser poster did...

While I don't like it, that looks more like some kind of publicity shot than total Photoshop.

Andy

The photo was part of a set of 20 (if I remember correctly) all shot blue back ground & then had different backgrounds added, they were sent out to the outlets & used however they wished. Due to the absolute messed up UK release by the time we had the items arrive from the USA the release was over!

The really strange thing is that in this photo-shopped cover Chase on the right has an extremely large hand? & in the original shot his hand is holding D'Angelo's hand & not on her shoulder.

I guess no one really cares these days either way!

LOL I figured elements were "added" but at least it looks resembles a real photo. Wouldn't have been my first choice but it won't deter me from buying it!

Thanks as always Andy for the PR scoop!! :D

"Who cares if the movie has an iconic poster that was hanging on every dorm room wall in the 90's...?" :roll:

And I would say this fan art better captures the Tarantino milieu...
