Criterion Collection Thread

Criterion is really doing it’s damndest to fill the gaps in my Lynch viewing. I approve.

Itching for the next Barnes and Noble sale to start.

A what?

 

[Sawyer]

Far be it for me to complain about another Scorsese film being anointed, but where is Near Dark dammit?? Y’all put it on the channel, now gimme a disc!

I'm looking forward to their treatment for Freaks. Want to see what special features they have planned for it.

Forgot to post earlier, but…



Hype.

 

[Sithborg]

Sold.

I feel like one of the worst things about streaming delivering such a blow to physical media is that it’s now Criterion’s responsibility to do entries for stuff that practically just came out because that’s the only way they’ll get a physical release, and meanwhile that holds up the line for a ton of older, probably more deserving **** that might have gotten in already if physical media was still thriving. Like goddamn, why doesn’t Boogie Nights have a blu-ray/4K yet??

Never seen Bound before. This might change that.

That should be - Rebecca De Mornay is in the Criterion Collection.

40 films?? Jesus…

 

[emielaen]

A crazy ass collection with a crazy ass price tag. Sheesh.

 

[NDX]

I spent 185 on 9 films, so 400 for 40 during a half price sale is not that ridiculous.

Still wouldn't buy this, but not as bad as it could be.

 

[emielaen]

400 is with the sale that was going on. It's around 650 normally.

If I didn’t already have that blu-ray, I’d be so tempted.

 

[Sawyer]

No Country For Old Men is going to be a must-have when the summer sale rolls around.

 

[NDX]

Welp, time for that upgrade.
