"The Terminal" Cover Warning
Sorry if this has been posted here before, but I just went online to buy "The Terminal," and couldn't tell what version I was getting simply by looking at the cover art! Preposterous!
Can you believe I actually had to click on a link to find out which was which? I just thought I'd issue a friendly warning to those out there in DVD Land, so that you don't almost make the same mistake that I almost made.
When you go to buy the DVD, check the back, because the front can be quite deceiving.
Full-Screen:
Widescreen:
So be careful. I wouldn't want to same thing to happen that happened to all those Shrek 2 buyers out there...

Neither. According to the Amazon website, both the widescreen and the full-screen have the exact same cover.
So, instead of saving both images, and hosting both, I simply used the same picture - as they are the exact same.
Here is a link to the Widescreen - Cover Art Widescreen
Here is a link to the full-screen - Cover Art Full-Screen

DVDAnswers shows that it says Widescreen across the bottom.

So i guess you'll have to wait and see when people get their hands on it. For instance all the promo work for the Shrek 2 DVD has a "#1 Comedy of All Time" banner that wasn't on the actual cover.

I think it's easy to tell the difference. In the picture on the right in the first cover, Hanks looks bemused. In the second, he looks perplexed.
Either way you go, it's First Class Entertainment! Do I hear Oscar paging Mr. Hanks to the baggage claim area?

Wow big deal over nothing. 1. the movie is not out yet. 2. Dvdanswer has the official artwork with the widescreen at the bottom 3. Just get the limited edition and problem really solved.

Again, just read the specs on the back before you buy any DVD people
