Impossibly-Cool Cover Art: The Amazing Captain Nemo (1978)

After covering the actual Film, I might as well have some fun with the cover.

That was a confusing sentence to write.

In any event, this is the 'spiced up' version of the Poster seen in the Review yesterday...
Bright lights, blue ocean!

This Poster really sells you on a big, flashy underwater battle!

Too bad you don't really get that- at least not as good.
As good as the final third of the Film/Mini-Series is, it is not because of a battle like this.

Oh and add one more to the Star Wars count, as this is clearly framed with the big ship looming past the viewer like that Film's famous opening shot.

As a bonus, here's the untouched version of the German Poster.  It's mostly the same.
...and just to keep tradition, here's the untouched U.S. Poster (or at least English-language Poster).
It's honestly a fun, silly Poster.  It just definitely feels more flat and lifeless with the washed-out-with-age colors from the Scan.  You're welcome, Movie.
