The absolute earliest this would come out is September, more than likely October. (assuming they continue to release 1 movie a month)

Only Lovers Left Alive = June
Om Shanti Om = July
Ida = August
(probably) Two Days, One Night = September

The paragraph accompanying the photo on Facebook includes

In it, they talk about this receiving an Academy Award. This was released in the late fall of 2014. So judging by that sentence, this will be coming out sometime in the fall of this year. So I think my October estimate will be pretty close.

And that teaser image is interesting, not only does it list Plain Archive, but also Green Narae Media. I'm wondering if this will be a joint release like Only Lovers Left Alive & Art Service.

FYI Green Narae have released Frances Ha, There Will Be Blood, Evil Dead 1&2, Life is Beautiful, Tess, Antichrist, etc. They have some great packaging. I wouldn't say as good as Plain, Blu Collection, or D'ailly...but very close.

I would think there would be a steelbook between the two next keepcase releases possibly foxcatcher, oldboy wont be released till probably after october so that one has to be ruled out

The Criterion of Tess was excellent and Antichrist is the only film you listed which I still need to get around to seeing, but why in the name of all that is good would they do a special edition of Life is Beautiful, a film that is so obnoxiously bad? It's high up on the list of worst movies to ever get nominated for Best Picture (Extremely Long and Incredibly Cloying being another in recent memory). That's one of the most shameless and repugnant pieces of Oscar-bait that I've ever had the displeasure of sitting through.

I did finally see Still Alice tonight and Julianne Moore gave a remarkable and heartbreaking performance. I'm glad she won the Oscar, though I still have to see Marion Cotillard in Two Days, One Night (she was excellent in The Immigrant the same year, which was also nomination-worthy). Important Issue movies often get on my nerves a bit, but it had a great lead performance and is an important issue that isn't getting enough really good films made about it (I'd also recommend Sarah Polly's directorial debut Away From Her Edit: Almost forgot about Michael Hanaeke's Amour, another great film). I'd definitely watch Still Alice again and will probably buy PA's release.

I'll have to remember to get around to seeing Julianne Moore's acclaimed performance in Todd Hayne's film Safe.

I agree it's pretty bland but I kinda like it. The colours look great
Not sure about 2 versions yet. Think it might just be 1

[BHolst]

Pre-order of this (and The Boy and the Beast) on Friday the 17th 4PM Korea time.

OP updated with info from FB.

[BHolst]

Added a Pre-Order Time Table to the OP.

The times *should* be correct, but it is created by me so usual caveats is in effect!

[DJJez]

3 days till pre order?? wow plain are getting greedy now, its only middle of the month and already another pre order.....they should of waited till end of the month

[Shadowscythe85]

Unless they limit this to like 100 or less copies, I really don't see this selling out that quickly. Can probably wait a bit to order. Also where are the beauty shots at? Seems really late to not have anything besides the cover out.

[jacobsever]

It's been confirmed via Facebook that there will only be this one edition.

[BHolst]

PLAIN posted a "group shot" of the content of this release: Slip Box, Keep Case, Booklet, Disc Art (pretty!), and what looks to be a Folded A3 poster and 2 post cards (anybody reading Korean is welcome to correct me!).

Picture added to OP.
