Well, now I HAVE to mention the fact that my order was shipped, just out of spite.

jcs913 · 03-01-2017, 07:28 PM

This is the first flash sale I have sat out in I don't even know how many years. Not much I have wanted over the past few months and whatever I wanted, I already had. Wanted to get Mildred, but will wait for someone to sell their copy for $18 or so after they watch it, not a huge rush. A few releases on the horizon, but nothing that makes me yearn for the summer B&N sale either. IMO, hopefully the output picks up. To all that got in on the sale, enjoy...

Yes, it's kind of a big deal.

I'm so proud of you.

Happy to see all the love for His Girl Friday and Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas.

My takeaway on the sale:
His Girl Friday
Black Moon
Valerie's Week of Wonders
Dr. Strangelove

I'm dying for that John Hughes announcement. Hopefully they can rescue Weird Science too. R.I.P. Chet.

With HMV closing, there are fewer options for Canadians to buy Criterion titles at reasonable prices--first world problems, eh?

It is pretty expensive, but still our best option for Criterions. I'm starting to see prices push into the $45-60 CDN on Amazon.ca. If the shipping prices were lowered for Canadians then I'm sure they would receive more business in the future. Then there's the customs charges If the package is inspected at the border.

Strife88x · 03-01-2017, 08:55 PM

Yes! I just received my shipping confirmation.

Same.

I placed my order literally two minutes after the sale went live and mine still hasn't shipped. I must've done something to piss off Mulvaney.

Not to worry, You're probably in their good books.

The last I heared, Mulvaneys were still busy dealing with some loony who flooded their office restrooms.
... Something about a Alain Delon film. 🤔

Funny Story - Thought I already owned all the CC blu's I wanted. Was kinda sad this would be the first flash sale I would be sitting out.

Around noon decided to just check out the site see what was sold out & selling fast.

Ended up with $320 in my cart with the sale & free shipping it dropped back to $159 thank god.

Already received a UPS shipping notice early this afternoon.

Ended Up with

Down By Law, Fat Girl, Crumb, The Player, Nashville, Monsieur Verdoux & Mystery Train (havent seen this in forever and remember not liking it but for $20 thought I would take the chance)

How did I go in with absolutely NO INTENTIONS of buying anything and end up with $300 worth? It makes no sense to me.

Huseyin · 03-02-2017, 10:01 AM

Hey guys I just put a few Criterions on my latest channel update, let me know what you think of these titles?

theater dreamer · 03-02-2017, 01:01 PM

Mulvaney used the Jedi mind trick on you. The Force is strong in that one.
