I really like this cover , the concept is really cool but I would lose the crest on the front over move it to the back it stands out to much, I don't think font the TT works to well maybe get rid of the dots in the circles.

other than that I really like the colors and i'm curious see what you can do with the back considering you don;t have a lot of room to work with, maybe move the special features to the bottom and put stills in it's place.

either way they're all just suggestions your the designer.

Yep, I really like it too, I agree with RRJR about the dots on the O's, they kinda look like nipples or eyes on the OO, though the font isn't that bad (have you tried leaving the original TT?). I'd like to seesome screens on the back too, keep us updated!

If you could somehow make the front look like a medieval poster that would look nice

Great start! I like the grungy texture combined with a shot of a forest

I agree with RRJR84 and Felipe-11 about the TT font and the nipples. So maybe Felipe's suggestion?:

I started with the original TT actually, but didn't really like it, it just didn't feel right. Will reconsider, but I like the TT font I have now, maybe I'll remove the dots (wich are part of the font). The TT in the intro of the movie also had dots actually.

Use the dots but recreate the TT used in the intro of the movie.
It'll work better than the one you have now.

I like it. :)

If you're looking for more things to try out, might I suggest (this is a long one) decreasing the vertical spacing between your credits text, then moving your black background down, then moving the special features text down, then adding the shield from the front above the special features text (smaller than it is now), then making the front tag line a little bit smaller and moving the front image block up, thus giving you more room to make the title bigger so that you can appreciate all of the cool features of the title treatment you posted in the screen cap. And then if you can get a 1080p capture of the title treatment, you should be able to cut it out pretty well, and use the paper/ink texture you have going on to hide any problems. Or, you know... it's cool as-is too... :)

The current font would look a little plain if you remove the dots a few of the more dirty minded folks here disliked. If you like it, maybe just take a cue from that screen capture and add things diamond-shaped inside the O's?

Great work. :)

Thanks for the suggestions guys, will give it a try.
It is a 1080p screen cap, will see if I can make a decent cut out. Not sure if I can make enough room to put the shield above the SF, maybe I have to loose the shield to do so, but will give it a try. Maybe I'll loose the shield as it isn't that significant in the movie, I just used it to spice up the front a bit.
Already made a small update, will work on the suggestions next.
