If it were up to me, neither of those images should be in the database .

The First set's color is off, poorly cropped and it looks like it's still in the packaging because of the glare on the front.

The second set's front image is chalk-full of dust and scratches and the rear image looks like the Leaning Tower of Pisa...it's so crooked.


I would add that its looks like the 2nd set of pictures have incorrect colour - far too yellow. I don't have the set but I can't believe the image of the people on the back cover are supposed to be yellow.

Maybe my copy of the disc has a misprinted cover. Because yes, the scan is very yellow but it's very close to the color of the cover I'm holding in my hands right now - much closer than the way off color of the existing scan.

I don't have this either, so can't pass judgement myself. But the cover on Amazon.com does seem equally "yellow".

I'm not familiar with the movie, but maybe everybody suffers from jaundice.

When is comes to voting on cover scans I rely on whether or not I own the movie. If I do then I match the scan to the cover in my hand and vote accordingly. If I don't have the movie I don't vote,  if I rely on other cover scans from other sources on the net then their scanner could be off and then I would be making an incorrect vote based on third party information. If all that makes sense, God I hope you all get what I'm trying to say.

Makes perfect sense and I wholeheartedly agree. Personally, I don't vote on cover scans for titles in my Wish List as I don't have the actual cover to compare to.

Yup... I don't vote on cover scans unless I have the disc in hand also.

There is an exception though.. like if it is something that obviously breaks rules like spine included or watermark on the image.
