My FutureShop won't exchange them unless there is something wrong with the actual disc. I'll post again in hopes of getting a helpful response:

I have 3 Criterion blu-rays which had damaged cases when I purchased them. I emailed Jon Mulvaney today. What does Criterion do in this situation? WIll they send the cases for free?

whoa! i just picked up 7 or 8 of them. someone nabbed Straw Dogs just before i checked out. i bet it was one of you! hehehe

still, that many for $20 shipped is beyond awesome. thanks for the heads up!

Jr7936 · 03-16-2011, 11:48 PM

i know its amazing, I saw it and I figured, let you guys get in on the fun before they sell out

keldons · 03-16-2011, 11:51 PM

Nabbed Children of Paradise and Naked Lunch.

I can't help but feel they will come without packaging, but whatever. The seller has good feedback...

So, if FutureShop is that silly with returns then take it upon yourself to put a scratch on the actual disc and then take it back to FutureShop and tell them the discs won't play. It's okay to lie sometimes, right?

Saw the posting and read through most of the forums 'wants'. There are too many to list that are not in the collection and you guys seemed to have hit on most of the upgrades. But I did not notice 1 title that I think is a must for upgrade; Jean Renoir's- The Rules of the Game is a must have anyway, especially considering The Grand Illusion is now OOP and probably will never see a BD upgrade.

Old Geezer · 03-16-2011, 11:59 PM

Please give me your 10 most wanted Criterion Blu-rays. Selections may be new spines or catalog upgrades.

) :

New Release

1. Stalker
2. Persona
3. My Nights are More Beautiful Than Your Days
4. The Three Colors Trilogy
5. Wild Strawberries

Catalog Upgrades :

1. Joan of Arc
2. Andrei Rublev
3. Hiroshima Mon Amour
4. That Obscure Object of Desire
5. The Unbearable Lightness of Being

Good work with the contributions.

I've pooled 266 requests so far. I'm not going to give the leaders yet as I don't want to influence the requests of those who haven't voted yet. We should probably let this stay open to the end of the week at least.

Note- If you request "Any Hitchcock", "Mexican Bunuels titles", "Hitchcock Eclipse" or something vague then I haven't noted them. Please be specific.

Also, anything which has been confirmed (ie Wild Strawberries) was not counted.

BTW- Keldons - I also put you down for Chelsea Girls as you expressed interest in getting a BR.

I got 3 but i got to think this is some kind of mistake. It would cost more to ship after fees then what they made

Jr7936 · 03-17-2011, 12:07 AM

Yeah but criterions for .01? And the shipping soon on third party just means the order has been processed it means nothing untill it says shipped. I hope we get them but i do not believe it will happen

CG is to Criterion, as Andy Dufresne is to the U.S. Senate.

Everything I've read suggests this deal was never finalized and has essentially fallen through.

Jr7936 · 03-17-2011, 12:19 AM

I have had many other things for crazy prices shipped from third party amazon sellers. the fast and the furious uk blu ray set, with the 1st 4 movies for 17.99 after shipping, and that actually shipped out so I have hope that these will ship out

I wouldn't be surprised, if all the orders were canceled. Whoever was in charge of listing the DVD's, messed up big time.
