Le Samourai
The Cranes are Flying
Ballad of a Soldier
The Naked Prey
The Spy Who Came in from the Cold
Andrei Rublev
Ace in the Hole
Pickup on South Street
Picnic at Hanging Rock

or any from about 30 more on my upgrade list, especially from Bergman and my favorite Japanese directors. I really look forward to upgrade announcements.

Excited we may be getting Wild Strawberries on Monday, and Le Samourai at some point this year.

I would love to see Ace in the Hole announced!

I agree. Excellent movie with social commentary that remains relevant.

Surprising that someone hasn't stolen it. Well, not stolen, but taken it out and...not given it back. Okay, yeah, stolen.

they have it in a typical libray case for a blu so it if someone stole it they would have a disc only situation. i dont think anyone would really be able to live with themself if they posted a library case up in their collection. not only does this library have a crap load of blus which ive never seen before in any library before but it has a blu i thought i would never get to watch.

That's exactly what I was thinking I wonder how much they would make you pay if you "lost" it.

most likely they would want you to cover the cost of a replacement not the original msrp. anyone who would do such a thing should never be allowed to use a library though

I agree 100%. That would be a terrible thing to do, and the more people that are able to see The Third Man the better. I gave in and bought the Criterion version of it for $100 last year. It was worth every penny

I wouldn't be surprised if no one has checked it out in ages, and few, if any, know what it is worth.

...and if they were to replace it I'm really pretty sure it would make sense to go for the cheaper version anyway.

Regarding Tiny Furniture:
The booklet mentions that this film was shot with a Canon5D digital camera and that the entire production was completed in a fully digital workflow. If you need more info let me know.

Really? She mentioned in an interview that it was filmed entirely on 7D.

Yup I can scan the booklet where I found this - it was found under About The Transfer

honestly, after Badlands this seemed like one of the most requested titles when I used to lurk their FB page. I'm sure it'll come soon. Also, my copy of Badlands is already in my state from Amazon ^____^

I really want the Wim Wenders Road trilogy this year....

[Scottie]

Can't wait until tomorrow. I wish they would announce them early tomorrow. They DID postpone it after all. It's the least they can do.

Anyone know if Badlands will be available in store at Best Buy? Their home video section has become such a joke but I hold out hope against hope.
