So far, we should have "Videodrome" and "Cronos" for December. That should be enough after getting 10 films in November, don't ya think?

Actually, I take that back. I hope December's release includes every Wes Anderson film, every Goddard film and every Kurosawa film. That will cut down on the debate on the boards a little bit.

Who's Goddard?

Plus, I already have every 60's Godard film (except Weekend, though have seen it). So are you saying Criterion has the balls to get his post 60's stuff?

I hope December's announcements is what CC just said above me. That way I don't have to buy anything. Sorry if any of this is off-topic to Criterion. Don't want to get away from all of the great cover art, digipak fights, when is "" going to be announced discussions. My discussions isn't "Chocolate sauce down your pants good" enough.

So..... "Get em'!" or "Got em'!". Whatever the cool guys say on here.

I thought I read an interview with del Toro saying Cronos was gonna be in early 2011, so I'm not sure about that one. Videodrome however looks like a definite. I'd personally like to seeing Following in December as well - good tie-in with Inception's home video release.

Just playing with ya.

Anybody watching films tomorrow?

My non-religious butt is sitting home watching some films, while I guess the rest of the country has burning things to attend to. Ah, gotta love religion. I might watch a Bunuel film. Criterion-related.

October's gonna own my wallet too (Seven Samurai, Apocalypse Now Three Disc Edition, Hausu, and Alien Anthology), November's badass too (The BBS Story, Night of the Hunter, Metropolis). Which 10 films are your choices for November?

I was thinking,

How would that Florida dude like it if a group of people burned Bibles? Oh No I Didn't!

But wait! Not Criterion-related. Quick......hmmm....................Kurosawa is awesome! Wow. That was a close call.

When is burn-a-Spielberg movie day?

Also, is this stupid Yosemite Sam dude's burning books going to be shown live tomorrow night? You know, since the media is the only reason why this is out of hand in the first place.

Oh, and Criterion is awesome.

Haha that dude does look like Yosemite Sam. Only much more evil. This kind of nonsense is exactly why I don't watch cable (especially Faux) news anymore. Can't believe this guy is getting all over the national news for pulling a Hitler/book burning.

[Brad1963]

It would be nice to have Le Samouraï and In the Mood for Love.

I'm thinking Broadcast News, Sweet Smell of Success and perhaps another Chaplin Film in December along with Videodrome.

Wait a sec... Gainesville is less than 2 hours from me. I think I'll setup a competing bonfire to burn copies of Michael Bay films to make a play for my own 5 min of fame. Who else wants to join? His movies are so big budget they might cause the bonfire to explode and setoff a massive forest fire engulfing all of central Florida.
