For those unaware, Irish and I were discussing the new cover artwork for the Taxi Driver Special Edition DVD, over in the DVD Discussion thread. The cover looks like this:  Now, he and I both agree, the cover art isn't nearly as dazzling as expected. Firstly, there are no action shots, nudity, explosions, holograms, or otherwise. This must change. To take action, we've decided to contact Sony with a petition. I will be forwarding the following e-mail to Sony, along with a petition. To Sony & whomever it may concern,
Firstly, I am a huge fan of the film, "Taxi Driver". I would like to take this moment to thank you for allowing the public to enjoy the new, superior transfer of "Taxi Driver" and the included features.
Now to business. Myself, and several others, are gravely discontent with the new cover artwork included with the upcoming Special Edition release of the film. It's rather bland and unexciting. I mean, when I hear the words "Taxi Driver Special Edition DVD," that pretty much implies a moving, holographic Travis Bickle swooping down from the sky in his flying Taxi cab, grabbing a live chicken by the neck, and then beating a pimp over the head with it. Alright, so, expectations can't always be filled to their fullest, but I was at least hoping for some flames, some guns, some blood, or some full-frontal nudity from Jody Foster. What gives?
Further more, Jimmy Fallon and Queen Latifa aren't even on the cover, let alone credited! I don't mean to tell you hard-working individuals how to do your job, but something must be changed. How do you expect to sell the product without even mentioning the two biggest stars of the film, not to mention some of the finest talent Hollywood has seen since William Shatner?
I've included with this letter a link to an online petition I've created; I certainly am not the only one who demands justice be done to the excellent film and DVD release. I just feel that this release, being something the fans have been waiting a life-time for, should be all it should be... A complete fan pleaser. We will not settle for second rate. Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
Kevin E. Cardinale Help me serve DVD justice! Sign the petition, HERE!

I'm going to wait until we have a few signatures.
I'd like to see how they respond to this, though.

I think your wasting your time,i can't see them changing it cause a few people on here don't like it.I'll sign it anyway just to help out... Don't worry, if worse comes to worse, I've purchased 120 industrial envelopes, a tub of anthrax, and arranged the mass-suicide bombing.

JUSTICE SHALL BE SERVED! I'm not resting until we get at least a cover slip with a shirtless De Niro floating in space with the severed head of a wild boar fashioned into a puppet in one hand, and a clad-iron glove fit on the other. And it's going to be 3D.

Done and done!
I've got so many useless movie ideas floating around in my head that I just haven't got the money or resources to make currently... I don't know if you've caught a conversation in the other nights shout box with Blibble and I, but it was quite excellent.

Excellent, that makes eight signatures. I don't know how they can look at numbers like that and not gives us what we want.

I would send it.
As for this thread, those sons of bitches at Sony are ignoring me. I'll wait a few more days, and if I'm not answering, I'm going to send them hysterical (in the literal meaning of the word) and threatening e-mails.

I've purchased 120 industrial envelopes, a tub of anthrax, and arranged the mass-suicide bombing. Is that really a statement that you want Google to index in this day and age? As I scanned down through the responses, my thoughts exactly. Knock, knock...this is your FBI calling...... LLC you are certainly entitled to artistic opinion, but the cover art you describe doesn't fit with the dark, psychodrama of Taxi Driver. I would have preferred the "you talkin' to me" posture myself. This film doesn't need flash and fluff.

No, I think the film would benefit having a pack of dancing gnomes on the front.
A lot.

Yeah, just don't shove it into a manila envelope this time... It was all soaked in blood and falling apart by the time it got here. Be a man and use a box this time.

Man, where do you get this stuff from? For the world's sake, I hope you become a screen writer when you're finished with school. I signed BTW. Please keep us posted with any updates!
