Is Short Term 12 this year's Perks? (If so, I'd be happy)

I haven't seen Perks, but Short Term 12's in my top 10 for the year. It's a wonderful movie.

Better by a pretty significant amount. And I liked Perks.

Yep, except I thought Perks was just okay.

This is somewhere in my top 10 of the year. I love it the more I think about it and I really can't wait to see it again.

Thanks for the info Tyler!

A slip is a nice surprise.

Completely forgot about this until I was looking at the releases for January today. There's a lot coming out on the 14th, but I'm making sure to include this in my haul for that day. Didn't see this in the theater, but I'd be absolutely shocked if I didn't end up loving it.

Scottie · 12-31-2013, 04:25 AM

I'm contemplating just blind buying this instead of renting it on VOD and then purchasing it if I like it.

This is a day 1 buy for me. I saw it two days in a row when it was in theaters and it is one of my favorite movies of the year.

I love, love, love, LOVE that this comes in a transparent case. Criterions look great in their clear cases, as we all know, but my very favorite blu-ray package is my Target special edition of Black Swan with the clear case and the black/red slipcover.

And with the recent price drop for ST12, I'm even more excited to finally have this in my hands. Hurry up, January 14th!

The Spectacular Now and Short Term 12 both were in my top 5 of 2013 and they're both being released in a week. Definitely brings the level of excitement of getting Blu-rays on Tuesday to a new level.

If only Brie Larson was personally delivering my copies of both.

+1,000,000. Yes to this.

Just watched most of the extras, and they're decent, although a commentary would've really rounded out the package. The best is probably the original short film, which is quite different in tone and style despite featuring some of the same dialogue exchanges and even "characters", as far as it goes. The deleted scenes are all pretty good too, although the one alternate scene is an idea that doesn't work and ends up seeming fairly weird.

When I read this, I once again thought of Brie Larson.
