As long as someone is not threatening physical retaliation discussion is always good. We all grow and change every day. It might not seem like it but it's healthy and keeps us sharp.

All this talk about Marxism and still no Groucho Marx in the collection.

How about A Night at the Opera by way of WB?

Im really really really hoping CC puts out the Female Trouble cover as a poster like they did Multiple Maniacs. I def need all the Divine posters I can possibly get.

I wonder if the Multiple Maniacs poster sold well?

Either way I won’t be buying this unless my wife wants it due to her unhealthy obsession with mass killings.

So before you end up on a Forensic Files episode it was nice knowing you.

Man...when are they finally going to release The Grand Budapest Hotel?

The Sovereign · 03-16-2018, 01:08 PM

^ Dunno. I thought with the new Anderson film being released, the time could be now. Maybe July...

Banned User · 03-16-2018, 01:31 PM

A little late to the party, but finally broke down and got Children of Paradise. No need to elaborate on the movie as I feel everyone whose seen it knows how amazing it is. I was hoping a less manipulated version would come out eventually, but finally gave in. It's not that bad, but they definitely scrubbed most of the detail and grain out it. Which is a shame since Les visiteurs du soir looks so amazing.

Which brings me to my point was Port of Shadows another Studiocanal title taken from Criterion? Really would like a Bluray of it. Also do you think we will ever see Hotel Du Nord in the collection? I don't think I've ever seen that released on anything.

I hope so; it's my most wanted Criterion release.

June had two clues from the New Year's drawing. I think all that's left is the Scarlet Empress, and that tree, and possibly the skeleton if that didn't represent Dead Man.

Fixed.

In for Bergman's upgrade. My first successful prediction (last year), I think.

Sigh. I really thought Voyage of Time was gonna get announced today. Oh well.

Actually, B4C has a "wonderful" ending... Joey Ramone's cover of What a Wonderful World playing over the end credits. That version just rocks.

Bronson13 · 03-16-2018, 02:48 PM

Great lineup for June. So excited.

Scottie · 03-16-2018, 03:38 PM

A friendly warning regarding Bowling for Columbine.

Please discuss the film as much as you want, but do so in a temperate and respectful manner. There's no reason for political rhetoric or resorting to name calling. It doesn't add anything to the discuss and it won't be tolerated.

Love it.

I took a literary theory course a year ago and what we read and learned we had to apply to films—a good chunk of them Keanu Reeves’s films.

Well MM had a theatrical release as well. I don’t think that’s the case for FEMALE TROUBLE.

It seems funny that they turned off the comment section on the June Criterion release posting...

I was going to comment "nothing for me in June" but oh well.

Bring it on ! War of the Gargantuas is my #1 most wanted blu ray. That Japanese blu looks amazing with the extras and PQ. I can't believe they didn't put english subs on it. I think they under estimate how much of a nostalgia factor there is for that movie and the others in the U.S. as much as they were on TV back in the day. Even Brad Pitt said at some awards show that watching War of the Gargantuas as a kid on TV is what inspired him to get into the movies...
