An annoying phenomenon with home video covers.

I remember getting this film on laserdisc back when it first came out and the cover art was the same as the pic on the main page here, it had Wesley and Woody running just ahead of the money train.

A superior image IMO, conveys the speed and brotherly camaraderie of the movie. But then Wesley and Woody's careers began to take a downturn, Wesley's in particular, Woody's made a comeback, and since Jennifer Lopez was getting all the attention they altered the cover to feature her with the boys behind her.

I've owned the movie on both DVD and now Blu-ray and I replaced that artwork with the original made from copying and printing the front of the booklet that came with the DVD.

Thanks for that completely useless reply nine months after the fact.

I've never seen that one. It's a bit weird, because hers is very much a support character in the film.🐭
