The Criterion Collection

El Espíritu de la Colmena (director Víctor Erice)

Any Terrence Malick film in 4k (except Song to Song- 4k version released already)

Los Locos (director Jean Marc-Vallée). I see Arrow video picking this one up.

變臉/Biàn Liǎn/The King of Masks (director Wu Tianming)

Waking Life (director Richard Linklater)

La Chute de la Maison Usher (director Jean Epstein)

[Show spoiler]

Another Criterion wishlist:

The Dreamers (director Bernardo Bertolucci). I so glad I picked up the Korean blu-ray.

The Fall (2006 director Tarsem) Awesome film! I picked this one up during Blu-ray’s infancy (lucky me!) This needs a 4k HDR.

The Piano Turner of Earthquakes (directors Quay brothers) by the masters of stop motion animation.

Les Maîtres Du Temps (director René Laloux) designed by Mœbius! Criterion has released Fantastic Planet so this would be a logical step; one would think.

Shadow of the Vampire (director E. Elias Merhige) Defoe as Nosferatu, Malkovich as Murnau and produced by my man Nicky Cage!!! Still on DVD! Now that Eggers is making his version (I am hyped up for his next film) I hope Shadow of the Vampire will follow as a 4k by some company.

Any film by Andrei Tarkovsky in 4k.

Floating Weeds (director Yasujirō Ozu). Ok no box set, but a 4k release will satisfy that itch.

The Game

That’s why I bought both (about $60 for the Criterion disc and the Second Run set) which I thought was a pretty good deal. Put the Second Run booklet in the Criterion case and slid that into the Second Run box.

Still hoping for more upgrades from their remaining DVD titles!

Poor Secret of the Beehive just keeps withering away on the vine.

[HuggyBear73]

Has Criterion made comment to why TROUBLE IN PARADISE never got a blu-ray?

Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio 4K
Ozu's The Noriko Trilogy 4K (Late Spring / Early Summer / Tokyo Story) (I'd settle for just one Ozu 4K upgrade )
Peeping Tom 4K (going between this and Contempt 4K)
Chungking Express 4K
Saint Omer

Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio 4K would be exquisite!

[Hazel Motes]

Hopes:

Harmony Korine the complete filmography box set. Although that may be more suited for Arrow ala the Lukas Moodysson box set.

Francis Coppola:
One From the Heart
The Rain People

Godard- A Woman is a Woman

Anything Malick 4K

Cassavetes-
Minnie & Moskowitz

Peckinpah-
Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid

Huston-
The Dead
Wise Blood

Anything Kurosawa

ANYTHING that will FINALLY bring Werner Herzog into the collection.

[perrinjuve]

My predictions (some might be longshots but hey, why not go with your gut?)

Amadeus
Barry Lyndon 4K
Oldboy 4K (seeing as it's hitting cinemas this week and they have a deal with NEON...they did the same thing with Memories of Murder so I feel it's only a matter of time before this is a reality).
Passing
Chungking Express 4K
Werkmeister Harmonies

[Shane Rollins]

I have to be prepared to be disappointed here...

Pat Garrett And Billy The Kid
Chungking Express 4K
Tokyo Story 4K
Hamlet 48 (one of only two Best Pictures left unannounced or unavailable)
Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore
Seven Samurai 4K
Rashomon 4K
The Magnificent Ambersons 4K

and the most unlikely of all, but I think Criterion would ace it:
The Devils 4K (uncut)

Apparently, Lionsgate will put out One from the Heart on, at least, blu-ray next year.

That’s great! I just hope it includes the theatrical version as well.

Jack Reacher, confirmed for Criterion.

[MarkGubarenko]

Given the upcoming Venice premiere of new Criterion restoration of DAYS OF HEAVEN, I kinda expect it to be in November titles.

i still can’t believe we got Twixt before One from the Heart…

[ShellOilJunior]

A November slate with these titles included would be terrific:


Picnic at Hanging Rock UHD
Werckmeister Harmonies UHD

The surprise being:

[Show spoiler]North by Northwest UHD

[Brad1963]

I think a Days of Heaven UHD upgrade is going to happen in November. It looks like the page for it on the Criterion website is being updated now. There no formats listed on the page. If when it was OOP it would show BD and DVD as out of print. Now there is nada.

My official guess of November titles.

Days of Heaven UHD, BD
Le Mépris (Contempt) UHD, BD
The Dirty Stories Of Jean Eustache (including The Mother and the W*hore) BD
Mean Streets UHD, BD
Werckmeister Harmonies BD, DVD
Saint Omer BD, DVD


Janus Contemporaries.
The Eight Mountains
Godland
Tori and Lokita

[MifuneFan]

Spine 1200 might be with this new slate too. I wonder what film will get it? A couple Wes Anderson titles got "milestone" spine numbers.

[kwillard37]

I'm thinking on the 4K UHD front

Days of Heaven
Le Samourai
Del Toro's Pinocchio
Either Mean Streets or Amadeus but probably not both?

Who knows! Personally hoping for some PTA or Coen Brothers

[postmodel]

Oh man didn’t even realize it was the 15th!

So many great suggestions…doubling down on Mean Streets and Days of Heaven 4Ks…and Gummo entering the collection!!
