I try not to respond too much to attacks now. Even in the Star Wars (where the maturity level is so low a bunch of grade school kids were laughing at them the other day ) cause in the end it just not worth it. A lot of people just act like idiot on the Internet because they are not face to face conversation. They pass their everyday frustration in here.

As for the Criterion thread, too many new members now, too many Internet expert that think they know just about anything.

I think I'm just going to throw in the towel in the Criterion thread. Who knew that an independent film, which 85% of the population has never heard of, would cause so much strife and posturing.

P@t just saw your message, I don't profess to be a cinematic expert, but I agree with you. I like Criterions because the films interest me, & because they allow me to move onto other films not necessarily in the collection. I don't always like what Criterion adds to their collection, but Criterion have their reasons for including it. It's part of the reason why I love TCM so much as well. I'm just as guilty as wanting stuff to be added to the collection, but at the same time, I don't get worked up when Criterion overlooks it & adds something I don't like. I do a lot of blind buying, because I'm interested in seeing the film, although I usually conduct a lot of research beforehand. I find that a lot of people on this forum are more concerned with PQ, the packaging, how many films & how cheap they can get a film, rather than the film itself. I guess I'm just a bit of an odd ball because I just love watching movies, regardless of what format they're in & I'm always looking for new ones.

I am hoping the the release of classic Universal monsters later in the year.

I got Babe yesterday. It's one I haven't seen since I was about 10 or 11. I just want Seabiscuit with that slip now. They are beautiful slips, highly attractive and even elegant, but not overwrought.

Ha. They should put it out on Blu already. I don't know if it will be a buy for me though. At the least it won'y be a first day or even week buy.
