Yeah, I went ahead a few weeks ago and ordered Rebecca. Though I got to save money for The Good Bad and the Ugly and Beggars of Life in August.

I'm a little unclear about what, specifically, you are asking about, but based on Criterion's site and the database entries here, Pickpocket doesn't seem to have been reissued in a single-disc blu-ray only edition, and BN's site only lists the dual-format and the DVD under available editions.

Like Judex, Thief, and All that Heaven Allows, it was initially released in a plastic case in a dual-format edition.

Yay!

I haven't seen Stalker yet ... I know, sad ... but all those others are amazing. Hell, Vivre sa vie always is vying for my favorite Godard, other than Contempt, and that's saying something considering he's my favorite director.

I'm 99.9% certain The Lure and Night of the Living Dead will be announced.

Between Night of the Living Dead and The Silence of the Lambs, it's gotta be the former. I don't expect the latter till next year at least.

How amazing would it be if they announced both?

demonknight · 07-14-2017, 09:56 PM

October/Halloween Hopes:
Blood for Dracula/Flesh for Frankenstein double pack (i.e. The Emigrants/The New Land, The Shooting/Ride in the Whirlwind)
The Curse of Frankenstein

The Lure
Night of the Living Dead
The Silence of the Lambs
Sisters

My Pickpocket only has the bluray. I thought this release looked weird from the moment I unpacked it. It had been rewrapped. Honestly if only the DVD was missing I would prob let that go bc I have no need for a dvd BUT the outside cover looks like it was printed off a home printer lol

Pfft, I haven't seen any of them. Guess I spent too much of my childhood watching gangster movies and Cheech and Chong. Not that I regret it.

Anyways, these movies look like a awesome trip into a surreal.....nightmare? Awesome, can't wait.

Does the back say Bluray/DVD on the top right? I just picked this up today, I could tell it was repackaged, but everything is okay. 1 bluray & 1 dvd, & a fold out. This was released as a combo I'm pretty sure.

Crossing my fingers and toes. I'll be pre-ordering for maximum Halloween optimization if they announce it!!

NOTLD is Coming!!!! Just look at scream factory's & arrow's line up of Romero films for October. Well, SF only has one technically. Do I smell competition????

MifuneFan · 07-14-2017, 11:40 PM

It'd be a huge fail if they don't announce it for October.

I have to say I agree with you on this. As soon as I saw that Romero Arrow announcement today it pretty much solidified it for me.

ShellOilJunior · 07-15-2017, 12:21 AM

NOTLD is obviously coming soon but would Criterion release the blu-ray before the film goes on tour?

They could pull a Rosemary's Baby (Oct 30th) and release it on Halloween, one short day before the Nov B&N sale starts.

That would be cruel but an awful lot of fun to watch

Seems fishy. It should have a blu-ray and a DVD.

nondiatonic · 07-15-2017, 12:36 AM

All this Romero talk reminds me how badly I need a bluray release of Martin...

But is it going on tour? I always assumed it was having the one screening.

javy · 07-15-2017, 02:02 AM

I bought this to make a cool display piece. I had this same release when I was a kid. Now I need that Criterion
