I'll definitely settle for any other Mann. The Keep, for one, is long overdue for a release.

I prefer the Director's Cut of Miami Vice, having seen both, but it would be cool to have both versions.

Sadly, I'm not holding my breath for The Keep, since Mann himself seems to want it to stay buried. I used to love that novel and that film both, though, so I'd jump at the chance to buy a Blu-ray.

If I ever went region free it would only be for that release and also Arrow's The 'Burbs. Doesn't seem worth it to me, especially since its inevitable those movies will eventually get the special treatment in the states.

Oh god, I might have to double dip because there's apparently additional interviews with Henry Jaglom on the new disc.

I can't believe they'd leave out Shanghai Surprise

Do we need it? No. But there has recently been a 4K restoration that showed at my local arthouse theater. I just don't remember if it was a Janus restoration or not.

I'm def. in for all four, though these were all expected titles. Nothing particularly new or surprising. Which is still cool, though being caught off guard is always fun.

I don't think they have the rights. I'm pretty sure Shout Select picked up that one.

Well, they did release Evita on Laserdisc, so it wouldn't be totally without base.

Kino or Flicker Alley would probably snatch it before the sunrise.

... Mulvaneys need to step up their A-Game!

Neither of them have deals with Universal which I believe only Shout and Criterion do, so it really only leaves the one option!

Never mind that, where the heck is A Certain Sacrifice?! Boycotting Criterion purchases till that one happens.

Also, leaving "Body of Evidence" out is a huge swing and a miss. At least we get "Swept Away".

Leaving out Die Another Day is a misstep as well. Even though it's the worst James Bond 007 film in the whole franchise, it deserves Criterion recognition.
