I love the scenery, especially right at the end. Now it would be all green screen
I love the unspoken romance in the film. It is never acted upon but you always know it is there
I love it because it's Machael Mann

Now excuse me while I go & weep

The Last of the Mohicans Ending/Promentory 720P - YouTube

Best ending ever. Criterion needs to do this
And while people are talking about Jonathan Glaser's work
Criterion just need to do all of them including Sexy Beast

In the blu-ray era these have been the major round number releases:

500 War Trilogy (Non-BR at the time)
600 Anatomy of a Murder
700 Fantastic Mr. Fox
800 The Graduate

If I were a betting man I'd put money on Grand Budapest Hotel and maybe give some thought to The Tree of Life (Although, I think that will be announced Thursday).

I'm hoping for Grand Budapest Hotel, Night of the Living Dead, Tree of Life or Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me.

Gloria is problematic for me. The child actor in Gloria gives one of the worst performances ever and it just brings down the film for me.

Now, if they could get a version of The Virgin Suicides and Marie Antoinette (yes, I realize there's a French version, but from what I can tell it it sucks) on Blu-ray -- we'd be all set.

Seriously. Why?

Hasn't there been a US Marie Antoinette blu since October?

Yes, though it is part of the Sony Choice Collection so it's on a BD-R disc.

Honestly, I haven't seen it since I was kid. But I remember very much connecting with the boy. It's a film I think about quite often. I've been holding off on purhasing the DVD for awhile, which is a lame thing to do. Hopefully when I see it again I won't find it problematic.

Night of the Living Dead would be totally epic.

Quick follow-up to this, Cruel Story of Youth had the CC logo and Boy did not FWIW.

What kind of choice is that?

[MifuneFan]

The one where most choose not to buy it.

Bugsy coming perhaps? Maybe Wag the Dog?

Richard Donner's Inside Moves which he co-wrote would also be amazing.

As much as I complain about Criterion releasing movies that are already on blu, a CC release of Diner would be terrific. I thought Warner could have done more with their release of it.

Real good start. I have five of yours, and will be adding Traffic, The Last Temptation of Christ, Black Orpheus, Dreams, Hunger and the Wes Anderson films in the future.

I also love the Beastie Boys, would would really like to see their anthology get the blu-ray treatment.

I have only been able to get back into Criterion when they started doing R2 & then getting a region free player last week just so I could watch Ghost World.

Forgot to add Overlord!
