It's a valid question. My answer would be that if The Maltese Falcon isn't noir then nothing is. Or rather, if The Maltese Falcon isn't noir then the definition of noir is so narrow as to make genre/style classifications pointless.

I too thought Spade and the gal went from 0 to 60 awfully quickly.

In all likelihood. I would also point out that 50,000 seconds = 833.33 minutes = 13.9 hours.

Half-price plus free shipping on orders over $50.00. Hard part is deciding which ones to get.

octagon · 02-24-2011, 10:35 PM

If it's half list price I might be able to control myself.

If it's half off their current prices...

It it's half off their current prices...

That means $15.98 for most of their BD and DVD releases.

The site appears to be having some "issues." I keep getting the following message, when I traverse the site...

We're sorry, but something went wrong.

We've been notified about this issue and we'll take a look at it shortly.

Hope traffic to the site doesn't overwhelm the server.

Belloche · 02-24-2011, 10:53 PM

I can't even get on to their site.

JediFonger · 02-24-2011, 10:54 PM

50% off MSRP, not current price duh. most will be $20-25 range.

I can't access it now.

iam1bearcat · 02-24-2011, 11:07 PM

too bad the coupon is JUST criterion.com and not just a standard coupon for any site that has criertion titles. maybe if they did that their site wouldn't crash!

rkish · 02-24-2011, 11:24 PM

Well...it took a bit longer than usual..but I'm on their homepage. No news yet.

Would they post it on their home page (criterion.com) or their Facebook page?

Facebook. Site can't seem to handle the traffic. Keeps going down.

blkhrt · 02-24-2011, 11:33 PM

Does anyone have one of the House shirts? I'm just curious to know if they fit according to standard sizes.

I can hit Criterion's Facebook page and Criterion.com's homepage, but I can't hit their "Shop" page...I get that "We're sorry, but something went wrong" message.

Everyone seems to be getting that message. Hope they fix the problem.
