The Criterion Collection - Page 486 - Blu-ray Forum

Hi all,
I'm new and I hope this is the best place to ask. I've been trying to order Andrei Rublev off http://www.kniga.ru but I've been having difficulties in finding the United States of America under shipping options. Prior to placing my shipping address, I selected Russian Post (air) and even tried EMS as my delivery option. However, still no results

. I felt a good number of criterion lovers have already ordered the film from abroad and could help a film amateur!
Thanks,
Tim

Just a heads up that there are reports from people that they are picking up the Godard Essentials four movie set (non-Criterion) for $5 at Big Lots (Retail: $54 on Amazon). It includes "Le Petit Soldat" (never released by Criterion) which came after "Breathless" and before "Contempt" .

Anyway, the set contains Godard's Breathless/ Le Petit Soldat / Les Carabinieres / Notre Musique) and for me, having "Breathless" already...I want the latter three. I went to our local BL and nada...did find L'enfant and the AMC box sets but no Godard (There is also a Herzog set supposedly out there as well).

Maybe "Le Petit Soldat" but I don't see the other two being released on Blu-ray from Criterion. So, this is probably the only chance to get it in the US.

Anyway, hope you guys spot one and if you get an extra Godard set, let me know, I'm interested in one! Hehe....

[interesting to note: One person reported seeing a Criterion "WC Field’s 6 Shorts" at ROSS for $2.99. How is that possible I don't know]

Thanks, but don't need it, have the first 3 in that set. Still need Notre Musique.

I wonder what the Herzog set is though?

The United States is definitely listed in their list of countries to ship to... it's listed as USA. You'll also want to select the Russian Post (airmail) option as it is the cheapest.

Interesting. Looks like Best Buy is sticking to the $29.99 price point on Criterion blu-rays. Can someone confirm that M was also $29.99?

Not bad. I work in Lake Mary so I might check the Sanford Best Buy after work tomorrow for it. $29.99 isn't too bad.

M is listed on their .com for 34.99 and no area stores in MN ever stocked M. IT was very odd. Otherwise I picked up WALKABOUT for 29.99 last Friday, and loosk like Stagecoach will be 29.99 on blu also.

You guys can still get M for $18 via the B&N GSA code before June 1st right?

Oh thanks. I have it ordered from Criterion during the AFS sale, just waiting for it to ship this weekend with Brakhage, Walkabout and Stagecoach. Although at that price it's probably worth it to cancel M from my order and order it from B&N.

Beta Man · 05-19-2010, 02:07 AM

I hope this deal is still alive when Brakhage and Stagecoach are released.... I canceled my Amazon pre-orders in anticipation of taking advantage of the deal on B&N

rkish · 05-19-2010, 02:12 AM

FYI...

"HUNGER" is now showing on "The Sundance Channel". 10:00 PM EST.

Beta Man · 05-19-2010, 05:26 AM

I wish I got Sundance

It's 1:30 in the morning, and after a long night drinking beer and playing foosball, it's time for "Ride With the Devil" or perhaps "Walkabout"

I think "Walkabout" would be a good one for tonight..... My DVD of it didn't get watched when the Blu-ray was announced (a usual ritual) so I haven't seen it in probably 3+ years (heck, maybe 6)

jacobsever · 05-19-2010, 05:42 AM

Am I the only one who go a shipment notification from Supermart?

Kidding, cancelled as well.

There's a thread for it in the Deals Forum, if you go there.

It looks great, pro-b. It's been a while since I've seen "Mystery Train," but I'm more than ecstatic to see it again looking this good.
