astri13Saw it linked on the nl, so apparently this is the cover art for the Season 4 DVD cover for SPN
I knew the version that was circulating earlier must have been the UK one because since when are US boxes gonna get split? Gladly, that remains not the case though curiously enough the covers differ this time. I'm...not so much a fan of the pictures they used of the guys per se. Why does Sam look like they lypo-suctioned out half his face? And Dean seems to wear a strange "hmm" look.
The composition isn't really all that bad, at least now the "who is in the foreground" shenanigans can't get started again. I kinda prefer the background of the UK one, it is somewhat ethereal and intriguing but the US one provides actual tie-in to this Season and features Castiel. Yay. Gladly, they didn't include Gluby on the cover art because I don't fancy putting huge-ass stickers down on my DVDs but I totally would have.
And in a bit of related news, a rumour is flying around that Jared is be dating Genevieve Cortese. Now normally I don't really care about relationships and private lifes of the actors but I certainly hope IF it's true - it might very well be just gossip - it wouldn't lead to backstage politics to keep the actress/character around artificially. I hate it when that happens due to personal behind-the-scenes stuff, and quite frankly at this point I want to get rid of the dead albatross that St.Gluby has become for me in Season 4. I was okay with her in Season 3 when she was okay written and, lets say, somewhat acceptably acted. I'm not okay if both those fields are sub-par.
