It is from the film Throw Down.

My Flash Sale haul:



I was also able to additionally use the 10% off "gift" coupon Criterion emailed me just ahead of the sale on this order, I bought enough to pass the "free shipping" threshold and with this order I earned a $50 gift card in their loyalty program (I was 12 points away from getting it before I ordered), so this all worked out in the best possible way.

[DrasticHandprint]

I got:
Swing Time
The Rules of the Game
Broadcast News
My Man Godfrey
Salo
The Circus
Sullivan Travels

No tax for me either in NC. Knowing that I’m gonna pick up the Pasolini, Bergman and Fellini sets next sale to save a bit.

I wanted a couple more things but I can wait for the B&N sale

Order #1:



Would love to go back for seconds but with all my sales spending this month I will need to use some restraint.

[Sommerswerd]

Does anyone have a gift code they aren't planning to use?
I was thinking of finally getting the Complete Films of Agnès Varda box-set.

[spatafore]

Ouch! Peeping Tom 4K Out of Stock, do you think they add more before sale ends?

How does everyone post the covers?

[The Sovereign]

Cool seeing everyone’s picks. I’m holding until next month, but this is a reminder of how badly I’m going to get blistered. Also: way to go Happiness buyers!

If you mean the thumbnail artwork, hopefully this will help:

- Find the specific title you want to post the thumbnail artwork for in the database here
- in the URL link in the address bar there is a number inbetween two /'s
- highlight the number, then (assuming it's the same on your computer) right-click and on the menu click on Copy
- go back to the discussion thread to make your post, right-click and on the menu click on Paste
- the number from the address bar inbetween the two /'s should appear in the box you're preparing your post in
- highlight the number then click on [BD], which is the line of icons above the post box (if you were posting a DVD title's thumbnail artwork, change 'BD' to 'DVD'
- preview the post to make sure the thumbnail artwork is in your post preview.

First order for me. May go back for a second in the morning:

The Last Emperor
I Walked with a Zombie / The Seventh Victim
Dreams
Picnic at Hanging Rock
Pandoras' Box.

Too lazy to do thumbnails lol.

[Colonel Blimp]

Just tested the thumbnails. I know Paris, Texas is coming out in 4K, but it will be after the November sales and I didn't feel like waiting. Haha

I love The Hit. Tim Roth and Terrence Stamp are both awesome and John Hurt is John Hurt. Great movie..

Dream upgrade: the Monsters and Madmen set but with Fiend Without a Face to make a proper bundle

[SammymeBlu]

Happiness Blu-ray now sold out. Only title i missed out on, i want the 4K version. Hoping comes back in stock before sale is over but looks doubtful now that the Blu-ray has sold out as well. Either they did not have alot of copies to begin with or its a huge seller.

[RegressiveScan]

This release is the Blu-ray debut of Happiness, a long-sought cult favourite, so I guess we shouldn’t be surprised that it sold out. It also sold out early on in today’s me-too Criterion flash sale on Canadian outlet Unobstructed View, also in both formats, sooner than it did on Criterion’s own site.

How do people get credits/coupons (other than the loyalty points)?

Usually before each Criterion flash sale (October and February/March) Criterion will send out $10 coupons to subscribers of the Criterion Channel. They will also usually send one out around Christmas time. I happened to have 3 previous $10 coupons that I hadn't used yet so I was able to add those to my order. The codes don't expire which is really nice. For every $1000 you spend, you get a $50 gift certificate.

[spatafore]

Wow! I just realized that Night of the Living Dead was re-released in a Scanavo case! great move!!!

Why Criterion do it just on that one? I wish they do the same thing with all the nasty digipacks.

The search function is currently unavailable on this website and I'm too tired to find another way to post thumbnails of the movie covers. So, here's my haul:

Le Samourai 4K
The Long Good Friday 4K
Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown-Blind Buy
The Funeral-Blind Buy
Hoop Dreams-Blind Buy

I don't normally have more than one blind buy, but I'm confident after research that all 3 were good purchases. Andrew Garfield's recent Criterion Closet video reminded me that I should get Hoop Dreams. Also, Tampopo (mentioned in the Andrew Garfield closet video as well) is one of my favorite movies, so I figure I will enjoy the Funeral by the same director (Juzo Itami).

[Watershipdownisgood]

Picked up two titles
The Others
Demon Pond

I was going to pick up Happiness on Blu-Ray, but it's sold out so I'll pick it up in November along with The Long Good Friday. Maybe also Repo Man too just not in the Barnes and Noble sale.
