Default It kills me to look at Criterions I want to purchase.

I have bought 90% of my Criterion Collection Blu-rays at the bi-annual Barnes and Noble July and November sales. It has been just under five months since the end of the last sale...and I have just under three months to wait for the beginning of the next one. Every time a Criterion that I want to purchase is released, I hoard the amount of money that I would spend on it now, so that when the sale comes, I can get it for half off, plus my 10% Membership and whatever coupon I can use. The result is that I can purchase at least twice the number that I would have been able to purchase when originally released.

But, it is hard, as I am having difficulty waiting for:

Badlands
On the Waterfront
Repo Man
The Tin Drum
A Man Escaped
Sansho the Bailiff

and
The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp
