It seems like a lot of the images they use are just screen shots from the various films. I would be surprised if they represented actual covers, because in the past that hasn't been the case.

Maybe around the holidays. I think they are saving City Lights for last.

Was just thinking about Keaton today. I have to review the latest Gore Verbinski film and some of his films (Rango, Dead Man's Chest) recall the antics in the maestro's cannon.

The Cameraman would definitely be a great addition to the collection. Hell, even one of the weaker entries in the Kino set (Three Ages) would have made a great addition.

The Cameraman and the other Keaton MGM films are owned by Warner.

Where? I think you are mistaking the soft announcement of The Brood for Rabid. I'd love to get more details about Criterion obtaining Rabid. Did I miss something?

This is The Brood's soft announcement: http://www.nashvillescene.com/nashvi...nt?oid=3320362

..and CC only has a couple WB films right? The cameraman may prove difficult to pry from their hands.

I'm so sorry to hear.

I'm going to take my sister to see Despicable Me over the weekend. I actually found the first one quite charming.

Followed you back, as well.

I'll have to some catching up before I do the same. My little sister was a big fan of the first entry.

I haven't been following the thread lately, but for anyone who preordered the Rossellini/Bergman set that was in the September lineup...is your preorder still there?

Yup

I figured I'd post it here since you guys have probably had experience buying from Barnes & Noble.

I recently put in an online order from B & N for 3 movies (8 1/2, The Lady Vanishes and Chungking Express). Got one for free in that "buy 3" deal. I saw that a new Chungking was still listed for $39.99 when I ordered so I figured I shouldn't wait on it for the 50% off sale.

They came in today. Lady and 8 1/2 are shrink-wrapped and appear to be fine. Chungking was not wrapped and the case is completely broken along the bottom. The disc was loose too. I feel like they just grabbed some spare copy of the movie and tossed it into my order. Any of you guys have experience getting replacements and/or refunds or anything along those lines for broken cases?

I think the best way to go about this is to order some replacement cases from Casetopia. Here is a link: http://www.casetopia.com/SearchResults.asp?Cat=1820

It's a lot easier, in my opinion, than going through the hassle of replacing the copy from Barnes 'N Noble (especially since the film is OOP). Plus, it's a lot cheaper than ordering replacement cases directly through Criterion.com.

I totally forgot The Ragin' Cajun was in The People vs. Larry Flynt.

dizzy4111 · 07-03-2013, 01:35 AM

So what do you guys think of the prospect of The Brood seeing a Criterion release before the end of the year?

I'm kind of debating picking up the import but I'm not so sure.

I think Despicable Me is animated perfection. Better than Toy Story 3 and How to Train Your Dragon.

I would say October seems to be the consensus.

If we're going to call anything animated perfection, my vote goes towards Finding Nemo.

Interesting. Looks like I'll hold off in that case.
