    They have just edited it to fit the artwork better, its nothing new, happens on most DVD covers.

    Why would rubbing all the contour and detail off of his face fit the artwork better?

    Its just an airbrush type effect. A lot of Blu Rays and DVD's have it. It just makes the disc itself look more smooth and sleak.

    It's just airbrushing, happens for every celeb on all artwork. Though it is impossible to compare the 2 properly until we have an HQ pic of the artwork, or the actual disc in our hands.

    Sorry, but it doesn't happen to this extent.

    Not all celebrities are airbrushed so much that the pictures no longer look real.

    The picture looked fine as it was and didn't need airbrushing. In fact, it had probably already been airbrushed once before we ever saw it.

    It wasnt airbrushed to make him appear better. Its just the effect for the disc. To just have the normal picture on there would look kind of tacky.

    This way the disc looks smooth and sleak as I said.

    You have to understand that in this case it wasnt done to alter his appearance, its merely for the look of the disc. However there where puctures in a magazine a few weeks ago that HAD been airburshed to make him look better.

    I don't like that photo...I mean the original one, he just looks...old. It's simply a bad picture.

    This is much better.

    Well I dont think it helps that you are using such a low quality zoom of the picture and comparing it to a HQ one, wait to see the disc, see how it looks there, to be honest I think the whole pic on the disc looks quite nice

    Its to make the disk look better.. the ordinary photo wouldn't look right, it wouldn't look professional, they have to smooth it out.

    Although, it looks like they've airburshed away one of his nostrils, and the shadow on the original pic has made his other nostril look bigger.. i don't think people will be paying as close attention to his nostrils though!
