Time for a little game based on a newly released version of the Cougars, Inc. box art (see right).
I’m calling it My Illustration Looking Fun game, or the M.I.L… Oh dear… That’s unfortunate 😉
The game involves looking at this latest revision of the box art and comparing it with the previous one and noting the differences. I’m sure we all played games like that as children.
Go to the Gallery and look at the images labelled Box Art 1 and the just added Box Art 3 (they are currently the 4th item on the second row and the 1st on the 3rd row, hold your mouse pointer over the thumbnails to see the labels). How many differences can you spot? Why do you think they made the changes? Let us know by posting a comment.
Having already released copies of the Blu-ray and DVD box art we’ll have to wait and see if they will be updated to match.
The Answers
Having analysed the two images the differences are these:
- Kathryn and the stair rail are much larger. They’ve scaled up that whole area making Kathryn almost as tall as Denise. It certainly makes her more prominent than she was. That may have been the primary goal behind the change.
- The new “It’s 10pm. Do you know where your mother is?” tag-line has been added.
- “James Belushi” has been changed to “Jim Belushi”. That is how he is generally known.
- The picture of Jim Belushi has changed and moved slightly to the left.
- There are small changes to Denise’s head, neck line and her left shoulder (our right). Nothing major just small shifts and size changes.
“Oh dear… That’s unfortunate”
HAHAHAHAHAHA that gave me a much needed laugh this morning. (:
I will definitely be playing this the second I get home from school. (:
Box #1- You can fully see Kathryn’s Knee
Box #2- Kathryn’s knee is cut off
Box #3- ” it’s 10pm, do you know where your mother is?” is added at the bottom.
And there’s a different portrait in the background on the 2nd image.
I like the 2nd better because Kathryn stands further in the foreground than on the 1st
The 1st one was definitely arranged so that Kathryn stands further at the back, the dark lines at the bottom of the stairs don’t fit together^^
You’re right Julie. I hadn’t noticed that the skirting board along the bottom of the wall doesn’t fit with the stairs in either image. The stair rail is in the wrong place. It is less obvious in the newer image but it is still wrong. Basically the stair rail should be behind Denise’s head but they’ve moved it left so Kathryn is visible.
The photo taken on the set of the photo shoot shows the way it really looks.
I’ve added my thoughts on the differences between the images to the post above.
Is it just me or has anyone else ever wonder why Denise Richards pic are so prevail on the DVD cover instead of Kathryn’s? I thought Kathryn had a more important role than Denise did in the film! Just my thought is all!
It is certainly something that has been touched on before. It must have been felt for marketing purposes that Denise should be more prominent, thinking she is better known to the target audience. Denise is the bigger, both literally and figuratively, cougar
As pointed out in this article the main changes in the revised DVD artwork involve making Kathryn larger.
I guess I just don’t follow Denise’s career had it not been for a friend giving me a copy of “Wild Thing” with Matt Dillion,Kevin Bacon and Neve Campbell,along with being the ex-wife of actor Charlie Sheen,I’d have never known who Denise Richards was!
Not sure as to why but Kathryn is much easier on the eyes to look at then Denise is! Guess it just comes down to what type of women you find attractive!
she’s awesome,
Kathryn Morris is the best actress in the world !!!
