(And nice work if they CAN get their edition of Life of Brian away from Sony, but I seem to remember it being an Orion/MGM film when it came out.)

I'm assuming that is the Qatsi trilogy on the left column, but only two of them are MGM.

One of my favorite titles in the entire collection.

I think I see "Bergman" in middle at the top.

Life of Brian? The third entry in the right column almost certainly says Life of Oharu, same as on the other sheet.

It would be great if Criterion just wrote squiggly lines all over those sheets.

(Yeah, knew Sony would be stingy.)

Kobo?? That one is all over the Borders website and emails! We also now sell it at Best Buy, alongside the Nook and Kindle and Sony pieces of garbage, and some generic others...

I have a "Sony piece of garbage," and thought it was a better choice than the Kobo, which was brought about by Chapters up here in Canada. I got my Sony about a year ago. I have the older model of the 6" touch. Mine still has the barrel end AC adaptor, rather than just the USB one that the new model has. I had to buy a PS3 charger for it though, because Sony were total douches in taking all the accesories for my model off the shelf within a month of introducing the new model. The freaking cases don't even fit the older model. It's not a piece of garbage, it works quite well actually.

I am getting a Nook Color next week though, to root into an Android tablet.

I've placed my August pre-orders for The Killing/Killer's Kiss & If...; huge price difference from the Canadian site. Hopefully the dollar will still be decent then.

Maybe it's the Eye Chart for Criterion. If you can make out every line then you're qualified to work for them.

3. Poo-pooing a release because the film is "too popular"
4. Asking about replacement case information when one just has to mosey on over to http://www.criterion.com for their answer.

I'd love it if people actually talked about the actual films.

My eyes are going cross from looking at this too long.

Zen_Amako · 06-28-2011, 01:48 AM

On that picture I think can make out:

Virgin Spring
Vanishing
One Spring Day

I am starting to see titles I want released in this picture despite the probability of what is written not even being close to what I think I see. I need to stop looking at this picture.

Here's some photoshop enhancing which makes it easier to see:

Oh no, sorry, I forgot to mention that its a picture that Criterion Cast posted.

Monty70 · 06-28-2011, 03:40 AM

I just noticed the small image of brass knuckles over the Criterion C on the cover art work for Kiss Me Deadly. (also below the title on the BD menu screen) Did I miss something in the story, or are the brass knuckles just an nod to the sadistic brutality of the film's protagonist?

Oh, I was about to PM the crap out of you until you told me where to get it early if you wasn't going to respond on here.

I see what you're saying about Vanishing, right underneath it, but my brain wants it to say "Weekend."

Virgin Spring would be terrific. Let's hope this is true.

That would mean they would have to actually watch them instead of buying them for collecting and putting them all in order on the shelves
