Shout's 'I Come in Peace' blu-ray cover art?


Anybody have it?

One of the coolest things about this company is that they include the reverse cover art for purists. I think the title Dark Angel is idiotic, and will most likely switch it once I'm able to order it.

But in the mean time, my curiosity is killing me. Is there anywhere I can view what it looks like?

Cheers.

the poster shown in the link below is the reversible cover.

the weird thing is, despite the "main cover" and the disc are showing Dark Angel...when you watch the movie, it shows I Come in Peace during the opening credits. but then if you watch the interview extra, at some point they show footage of the opening and it says Dark Angel. lol

Thanks a lot. It's on order, and I resolved to turn the cover art around. Dark Angel is just too awkward and random, but I Come in Peace is badass.

Had you not been treated with the newer title I COME IN PEACE in the U.S., you wouldn't mind the title DARK ANGEL because you wouldn't know it otherwise, like us Europeans who had seen the film released prior the states under its original title. ;)

"I Come in Peace" is a weak title. Dark Angel it is and Dark Angel it will forever be.

Having the UK DVD release of DARK ANGEL thats the name I choose to use to refer to the movie and the blu ray cover art. I value the movie more than ever now we're subjected to crappy CGI effects filled monstrosities.

Dark Angel is ludicrous and has absolutely no relation to a movie about a bounty hunter-extraterrestrial who uses the line "I come in peace" as a catchphrase.

He's a dark angel from outer space...

Trivia: The first draft script title was actually "Lethal Contact".

I think the definition of "angel" needs some clarity here...

Lethal Contact is an infinitely better title than fu_ckin' Dark Angel.

Maybe it's a cultural thing that's more common in Europe or France: the use of the word "angel" in the opposite sense of the word never schoked me, since I've heard of "angel of death", "angel of darkness" etc in other things...
