The Criterion Collection

[The Great Owl]

So, I get to watch the Boston Marathon on Monday morning, and then see the announcements on Monday afternoon. That will be a good day.

I'd rather have both , you guys can just not purchase them

If Criterion puts out releases for these two movies, I'd hope they consider these beautiful works by artist Ise Ananphada, whom I've just discovered.



She also did this one for Grand Budapest which would work nicely in a booklet/pamphlet

I need to figure out how to work the insult "hippopotamic land mass" into daily conversation more often.

You got me excited by bolding the word before. I'm hoping to hear it again on Monday afternoon.

Carnival of Lost souls and The New World just teased.

Criterion throwing fans a bone today because of the delay. We know at least 3 titles for July.

If McCabe and Mrs. Miller come in July as well then its going to be a huge month! I'm looking forward to Monday even more now!

How many constitutes a bag? I'd probably go with almost exclusively upgrades of my DVDs (Repo Man, Eating Raoul, America Lost and Found, Videodrome, Brazil, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, etc.)

It's awesome to see that they're wasting no time with Warner titles. Hopefully, they will hint about rumoured Klute, Blow Up etc. soon.

Klute please! Right below Le Samourai as my most wanted Criterions.

If this means a new lease with Warners, maybe they can pester them some more into releasing Ken Russell's THE DEVILS finally.

They've been actively trying for a couple of years now.
HOPEFULLY it will come eventually, a good chunk of stuff from Warner Brothers coming so far.

I'll alert the media to your very insightful post..

That would be cool, but if we could only have one Sirk upgrade, I'd prefer it be Magnificent Obsession than Written on the Wind.

Too bad you're not running in it. I'd make a point of arranging a meet-up.

(No, that's not meant to imply that I'm running in it. I couldn't run even a third of a mile.)

With announcements scheduled for Monday, I am hoping that one of the hinted films from the New Year's Day illustration comes to fruition: Beyond the Valley of the Dolls.

I have not seen the film, however, two nights ago I watched my recently blind-bought purchase of Faster Pussycat, Kill, Kill. For those who can appreciate exploitation mixed with gritty camp, you are in for a treat! The bare bones blu-ray disc is currently available on eBay for $29.99 + $3.99 shipping from a private vendor. I know that seems like a high price tag, but I found the product to be well worth it.

Come Monday, I'd like to see:

CARNIVAL OF SOULS
McCABE AND MRS. MILLER
BEYOND THE VALLEY OF THE DOLLS
A certain film noir title that has never been released in US home video
