Now licensing from WB? Yes, Badlands in Early 2013 - no comment on other WB titles
Le Samourai? possibly, at some point in the not too distant future
In A Lonely Place? no
World Cinema Foundation/Film Foundation - trying to work out WCF titles similar to foreign box set release
Film Foundation restorations will always come out on BD if Criterion has them (Richard III, Colonel Blimp coming to Blu-ray)
Andrei Rublev? restoration progressing in Russia - "desparately want to rerelease"
Cimino made some small changes to Heaven's Gate (some dialogue, removed intermission)
Some Eclipse may upgrade to Blu-ray! Les Miserables (Bernard) has restoration and may become a mainline title
Apu Trilogy? in progress, another Ray title in 2013 (Apu Trilogy or other title)
Some fun documentaries coming up
releasing Shoah + 3 shorts
releasing The Devil's Backbone (Del Toro) - mid-2013
releasing On The Waterfront in 3 aspect ratios

Shoah?!?! That's incredible!!!

Do you guys think that they'll release Maria Full of Grace in Criterion?

Why must you set me up for epic disappointment?!? Oh well, I'm turning in for the night to dream of Warner/Criterion joy.

I've only ever heard of 1.85:1 (Theatrical) and 1.37:1 (Original Negative). What would the third be...1.66:1 (Euro)?

4. Breathless
5. Broadcast News
40. Three Colors Trilogy

Those 3 are well worth your money.

I also own Diabolique and Wages of Fear but haven't yet had a chance to watch them, though I've heard excellent things about both.

Other than that, I've also got Rosemary's Baby, Vivre sa vie, Repulsion, and Belle de Jour on my prospective pick-ups list.

mallomar · 10-17-2012, 05:20 AM

I bolded a few of my favorites. I would have included Ice Storm and Stranger Than Paradise but you might wait, they could turn up on blu one day. And I've never seen Rosetta, Weekend, or Sunday Bloody Sunday. Good luck!

RiFiFi1955 · 10-17-2012, 07:23 AM

Hey Akijama, where did you see those BR covers that you posted on this page? Are they more fan made Criterion Covers? cause I almost shat myself when I saw that "Out Of The Past" cover.

Are So Badlands is confirmed as to be being lent out to Criterion?????

Do you mean there's a chance Get Carter could be released by Criterion?

Absolutely!Hodges made like two good movies in his career : Get Carter and Croupier.Thus,IMO,Get Carter has 50/50 chance of being released by Criterion

Ogle at this page,mate.I know i will

Unless Criterion pulling some stunt and release Pulp instead...:/

I've been hoping for Shoah for a long time. For some reason I felt pretty confident that they would release it.

Yami · 10-17-2012, 12:07 PM

Any bets on whether Shoah will be a 3 disc or 4 disc release? I'm struggling to think of a film of equivalent length that's been released on Blu-Ray.

I did quite like I'll Sleep When I'm Dead, but anyway Get Carter on Criterion would be amazing. Keeping my fingers crossed ...

This has been covered before, but there is basically zero chance of The Devils being released in the US, by Criterion or anyone else.
