Hoping we get Cure (1997) as an October release, especially since it's had a recent 4K remaster.

Yes. I had forgotten that part.

However, I don't think the MGM release is terrible.

I'll let you all know when there are official dates though!

I posted this in the release-specific thread, but I'll post it here as well, since this thread is more popular:

Can someone tell me the difference between the following two releases? Titles, artwork, and release dates are similar, but not the same:



Also, why not get this one, since "Monterey Pop" seems to be included with a lot more? What's the difference? Which one would you get? Or would you get both (leaning towards getting both):

Of the first 2 Monterey Pop you show:
The one with the girl is an individual release, remastered.

The one with all the wording is the complete remastered set, and it includes the Hendrix & Redding disc.

I believe BN does allow for pre-orders to qualify for the sale. It should also be a few weeks long.

Usually only those items that release during the sale dates (usually 3.5-4 weeks) -- like always in a decade long sale there have been glitches when Aug-Oct items were included at least briefly.
If it starts on 7/2 I'm guessing the sale will end end of business 8/2, so anything released in July is probably included. The prices should be discounted from teh beginning of the sale, not after release date

Can any owners of Death in Venice confirm if it contains a stapled booklet or a foldout leaflet?

Foldout leaflet.

Thanks.

I always try to find this information from Blu-ray reviews/Criterion Forum pictures/eBay listings/YouTube videos, but everything is so cryptic.

Has there been any indication if Criterion will be releasing Le Deuxième Souffle anytime soon?

Has the Kino Insider stated that they, Kino, don't have it?

Yes. In fact a certain other insider on that thread mentioned that it was with Criterion in a now deleted post. They listed all of the Studio Canal titles Criterion has that they haven't released yet.

Another request, this time for Europa Europa owners --

Is there any inner print? Is the booklet an actual stapled booklet or a foldout?

Appreciate it! Any inner artwork underneath the disc?

Also, while you're at it, do you mind checking your copy of The Flavor of Green Tea Over Rice for both things, as well? Thanks ahead of time!

No problem!

Both blank underneath (Europa has a texture-ish background though, like splattered paint if that counts). Green Tea is a fold-out also:

Thank you x1000000000!
