Meh - I remember when they did announcements 6 PM GMT - was bliss!

Just found out of this website: changedetection.com

it could be helpful to monitor your most expected upgrades so you would know if something changes that could mean it's being upgraded

Or just for the 15 to know when they add the new films, although i doubt they would check for updates that often, it would be better to use page monitor chrome plugin for that.

That's exactly what it was. Fassbinder loved the films of Sirk and didnt write them off just because they were melodramas in the 50s. He saw true art in it, and Ali is All that Heaven Allows with an updated story showing difference in ethnicity in 70's Germany.

That's precisely what it is. It's pretty much a remake, albeit an unofficial one.

EDIT. Beaten to the punch!

This blog post was made back in June. This website had inside information about some other releases before, so they seem very credible.

Quote:

Criterion Corner: Those folks at Criterion are up to their old tricks, pushing out gems on DVD and Blu-ray that collectors simply can’t live without. Down the road, we’ve learned that the company has slated David Lynch’s Mulholland Dr., the 2001 Hollywood-set mystery that actually started life as a pilot for a TV series. The film deals with an aspiring actress, an amnesiac woman, a film director, and a lesbian liaison and stars Naomi Watts, Laura Elena Harring, Robert Forster and Justin Theroux. This will be a nice companion piece to Criterion’s upcoming Eraserhead. Also due from the company is Terry Gilliam’s fantasy Time Bandits, available in a mega-deluxe edition. Just licensed for future release is Federico Fellini’s 1960 masterpiece La Dolce Vita with Marcello Mastroianni and Anita Ekberg. This will make a nice companion with The Great Beauty, the recent Oscar winner inspired by La Dolce Vita.

I hope Time Bandits makes its way to blu soon.
It was the first Criterion DVD I purchased back in 1998. I held onto it all this time.

I have a feeling that The Fisher King and Time Bandits will be released at the same time (January 2015 / February 2015).

I'm gonna say Mulholland Dr won't be announced. Criterion likes hinting at things and taking their sweet time releasing them, and it hasn't been that long since it was hinted at. Plus, someone in this forum has mentioned a few times, and as recently as within the past couple months I believe, that they still haven't heard anything about that release moving forward.

Polaroid · 09-15-2014, 09:41 PM

10:40 pm...

Scottie · 09-15-2014, 09:45 PM

They're certainly taking their sweet time today.

Nope, last month was the earliest all year, at 4PM EST.

Snicket · 09-15-2014, 09:51 PM

Criterion just tweeted the announcement is coming tomorrow.

Way to keep us waiting until the last second to let us know.
