I drove the ten miles in traffic, and the BD was not on the shelf. I asked if the disc was still in the back, but it was not. At this point I asked to speak to the store manager, and he told me he was sorry and would be glad to order the BD and ship it to me free of charge.

After standing and waiting @30 min. for them to figure out how to do all this, I final was able to pay. To cap off my joyful shopping experience, the person told me I could not use the $5.00 coupon as it was in store only. My retort was "that's why I called to make sure it was here". I grabbed the coupon and walked out after waisting and hour of my time and five dollars in gas.:angry:
Did you look under the "S's" or the "C's" in the BD aisles? Just curious, since we seem to stock our Criterions together under "C." Basically, only the people "in the know" can find them. ;)

Criterion just posted a part of a new cover on Facebook:

The Phantom Carriage. Look for that and Wild Strawberries in next week's announcements.

That's an easy one!

The Phantom Carriage. Love the film, I have it on a region 2 dvd with the KTL soundtrack.

(Snap, Spiderbaby beat me to it)

That was my guess too. I am sort of surprised though, just because I assumed The Phantom Carriage would be an October title.

October is never filled with horror films. This was always going to be paired with Wild Stawberries and that screams Sept. October still has Island of Lost Souls and Kuroneko for your horror fix. Then I can see the 1st box set this year (hopefully Oshima's Youth Trilogy) on blu in November with maybe Carlos (please get this title over with) in either Oct or Nov. Oh and World on a Wire prob in Nov.

You don't think The Three Colors trilogy will be the box set for November?

I wouldn't be surprised if World on a Wire doesn't come until next year. Wasn't it quite some time between the screenings of Hausu and the Criterion release?

Some releases come soon, some late. Modern Times happened about a month or 2 after Janus started the Chaplin releases I believe. Dillinger is Dead took a year. So it depends. I just think with Janus still doing Godard's Weekend this year (told me by e-mail), Criterion will prob release World on a Wire at the end of this year and Weekend next year.

I just want Rialto to hurry up with Les Carabiniers. They have had that coming soon since last year. I can't wait to have a release of that with some features (and no yellow subtitles like my dvd), being my fav Godard.

That makes sense. I guess we will know soon enough.

Wonder when the will be on Blu Ray
 
I would love it if they would put out the Blob and Fiend Without a Face.I love old SciFi films.

PowellPressburger 06-10-2011 09:19 PM
Wish Le Samurai would get a Blu release. I think that would nail all the Mellville besides Enfant Terribles (I think)

Russhole 06-10-2011 09:37 PM
"I would love it if they would put out the Blob and Fiend Without a Face.I love old SciFi films."

I really want them to release these on Blu too, along with Carnival of Souls, and Jigoku.

Why always with the french stuff Krzysztof Kieślowski made?
I mean The Decalogue has only been released shabby on DVD and is way better than his frenchy colored trilogy.
That would be a truly nice BOX.:)

I would like both, please.

Because of that screenshot that was released a while back.

I just finished The Decalogue, actually. I wouldn't mind both. ;)

It may not concern Criterion (yet), but I saw Tree of Life today and it's sublime. I just can't get over how beautiful it is :)

Stop teasing me...;)
I live in Germany, so I have yet to wait for the film to be releasd theatrically. 6 days to go now.
Actually the worst part is this: Since everyone over here is so f...ing excited about watching every movie dubbed I will most likely not be able to watch the film in 6 days but rather be busy finding a movie theatre that actually screens The Tree of Life in english.

Oshima's Youth Trilogy would be a great blu release. Oshima's compositions and colors are beautiful, and I love the style his earlier films ooze.

Last year's Nov they had 10 blu discs, so I expect them to at least tie or better that mark this year w/ 2 boxes and some singles :D.
