“I like seeing Eddie, even though he does seem to only have one facial expression when it comes to his photographic work, but still, nice to see him here,” noted honeycombchild the moment the first cover surfaced.

“I agree his expression never changes, this photo does not say anything to me,” Bertrando3 chimed in.

Benn98 wasn’t exactly feeling it, either, adding, “No comments on this cover, doesn’t speak to me at all. I’ll never get his hype. Odd Leonardo DiCaprio didn’t make the cover. Not mad about him, but his movie is pretty relevant.”

Also unwilling to jump up and down was HodanChloe: “The usual suspects. I feel like it’s always the same people every year on these covers.”

Sharing the same underwhelming sentiments was Miss Dalloway, confessing, “So incredibly bland! Alicia is actually shocking in that cover shot, she has zero presence, energy or emotion in print, I just don’t get her. Weird, because I think she is wonderful on the big screen!”

“So white. Of course this isn’t W’s fault, but it sure does highlight this problem in film,” acknowledged t-rex, making a very valid point.
