I don't know, Bazzah... I think they're all too afraid to even TRY to take the belt away from me! Only the Great & Powerful Bunny Dojo even DARED face me in last month's competition!

I'm here... I'm waiting... who will step up to the challenge? I hope there will be many contenders, but for those that are too chicken... what will be your excuses for not entering this month? Nobody has the "hectic holiday season" excuse to cling to, and I picked a current, popular film with plenty of resources this time!

Bring your A-game, ladies and gentlemen! I want to see plenty of entries and a good, honest, knock-down-drag-out fight for the HRC Belt!!

Let the games begin!!

Okay, I just might enter another comp!

Good theme and movie! Count with me..

They look kinda bored in that picture...!

I know you mentioned in your PM that you wanted to boost the trash talk in hope of inspiring more people to participate, but I'm more worried about recycling than trash this month. It's going to be a real challenge creating an entry that looks better than the retail, and even more so without recycling the poster or resorting to a 'boxes' layout.

I wasn't a tremendous fan of the movie, or else I'd submit one of the aforementioned box-based designs.

Forget battling the Kernmeister, this month you're battling yourself to achieve the significant feat of creating a truly great comedy design.

Allow me to disagree Tim... this month Kernie will battle ME to achieve the 1st place and the 3rd consecutive win

I have some nice boxes and a wall texture, if anyone needs 'em

Here you go:

Not sure what retail art you're looking at, BD, but I think the Region 1 Blu-ray art is absolutely dreadful and could use a few good customs here in our gallery.

Ok, that made me go scrounging - I simply had to what you guys were talking about. This is what I came up with.

US Back

Look! It comes in a Slip Case! Hence the barcode in the middle of nowhere....


Also some other designs

Here's the Nordic back (... and if you thought the US back was bad!!! :yikes: )

Last one is the worst IMHO! Look how fat they all are on the front!!!
