Give me some Gaspar Noe or even a 'Knife in the Water' upgrade. 'Children of Men'? Maybe some more Buster Keaton?

There, I've done my part of self-punishment.

I told my uncle who works at Criterion to delay the announcements to tomorrow since I'm not feeling well.

Haha and so it was. You're welcome. I don't have 4K capability anyway, so I'm a willing sacrifice here.

[MifuneFan]

Didn't even realize Valentine's day lands on a Tuesday next year too, so it's pretty perfect for a Romeo and Juliet release.

[DukeTogo84]

I'm in for Romeo and Juliet. So I guess that means they are releasing new Paramount titles again. They really are taking their sweet time on Heroic Trio and The Executioners.

[dkelly26666]

I am in for "Hollywood Shuffle" and "Romeo and Juliet".

I have Three Colors BD (I'm not 4K), and Dazed and Confused BD, already. Not familiar with the Duras films, might look into them.

[Creasy47]

Just saw the Three Colors trilogy for the first time this year and it totally blew me away. I might have to get that 4K.

[RevolverOcelScott]

At this point, if there are 4K resorations done, why not just release a 4K disc as well. You're already doing 4K releases, and Romeo and Juliet is a big enough film for it.

Also, another month of no Kurosawa.

[Rayjg]

Well, no Pat Garrett, After Hours, The Devils or any other wish list fantasizing. But we did get another, uh, much requested Olive Films Blu-ray "rescue".

In all honestly, I'm not expecting any single Kurosawa titles. I think they are working on a boxset, but the problem is how long it could possible take.

Yeah. . . sigh. . .

[stvn1974]

Juliette Binoche and Olivia Hussey, yum.
