What do you think of this Movie Travel Poster artwork? Will you be buying any of these DVD sets? Let us know by leaving a comment below.
I can’t say I like every single one of them, but that’s to be expected when you’re looking at thirty something. I do find some of these to be quite cool – not cool enough to double dip on movies I already own, but they’re nice to look at. For some movies I don’t own yet, these editions are enticing… Yes, I do still buy DVDs regularly.
