I wish this always worked... but alas, some places sell out and never re-stock (*cough* best buy */cough*). Less of an issue during B&N sales... but during NORMAL times of the year, Best Buy has them at $10 less than B&N. ::grumble::

You are very good at it.

And for me posting what I did, I went and spoiled my surprise just so we can be even.

As I still like to have surprises, I will say that you are a good guy to PM me and I go to your site alot, as it gave me great news (when BBS news broke). So please don't take what I said as disrespect to you or your site. Your twitter is there for people who wants to see it, and people have the option to stay off of it. It's when they are leaked here, is when people who tries to avoid it, it's ruined. So it's not really your fault as it is leakers off the source that spreads it.

P.S., I really would like to know how you get your rumors (or do I? I would ruin it for myself.). Have you got one wrong yet on these trailer posts?

Watching Hausu (again, lol) and was wondering:

Who is everyone's favorite of the girls? I think I got to give it to my girl Kung Fu. Mac is hilarious, though, so she's a close second.

I don't want to ruin any surprises by seeing the "Trailers" others have spoken of..... but my question is this....

"Are the trailers for THE actual titles that will be announced by Criterion tomorrow? "

Does anyone think that we might eventually see an "Annie Hall" criterion release? Or any Allen films for that matter?

Annie Hall is already part of the Criterion Collection (albeit in laserdisc format, same with Crimes and Misdemeanors). So a Woody Allen film on CC in blu-ray is not a long shot by any means.

Criterion may not be able to pry away Annie Hall or Manhattan but I don't think studios are in a rush to issue blu-rays for gems like Deconstructing Harry, Stardust Memories, Another Woman, Interiors, Crimes and Misdemeanors, Bananas, Sleeper, Manhattan Murder Mystery.

I know there aren't many Woody fans in this thread and/or haven't seen much of his work but I trust many of you would give him a chance if more of his films were on blu-ray. To date, Vicky Cristina Barcelona and Whatever Works are the only two on Blu-ray (both look very good).

Here's hoping someone picks up the ball and gets more of his films in HD!

Certainly Kung Fu. The fact that she spent most of the film in her underwear wasn't too bad either.

How many points do you have from Criterion orders on their website?

Right now to date I have 996, only 4 points shy of getting my second $50 gift certificate (which I'll get when they ship out my America Lost & Found)

The new place to talk to humans, even though I go into a family member's account to see Criterion's page.
