The Official Sony Pictures Classics Thread
The following is the official Sony Pictures Classics thread, for those who are interested in Sony Pictures Classics titles. Discussion of Blu-ray and also previous DVD's are fine. Please feel free to contribute to this thread.
For Criterion Collection, KINO, Eureka/MoC, BFI, Artificial Eye fans, I definitely recommend SPC titles. They do a great job for their Blu-ray releases. You can find very solid arthouse, independent and foreign martial arts films with their releases and I definitely recommend giving these releases a try.

great thread!
kudos to you OP for starting this one. Sony has released some amazing films for sure on this label. Unfortunately I haven't been able to get many of these since I'm always spending money on Criterion or Studio Canal, but that doesn't make these less worthy. I hope they release "The Opposite of Sex" on bd. That film is awesome. love Ricci's earlier stuff. btw: I think "Red Belt" is one word--Redbelt Last edited by Arkadin; 07-30-2010 at 09:07 PM. |

Thanks again everyone more additions and revisions. Btw, is "The Bridge on the River Kwai" a SPC release? Couldn't find the information on it. If it is, that would be great. I bought the original DVD when it first came out and that was a pretty solid package.
Btw... of the SPC releases on Blu-ray, do you know which ones came with the slip covers? I know "Moon" and "The White Ribbon" came with them but not sure what other titles did. I know the majority of the SPC titles I own, don't. Last edited by kndy; 07-31-2010 at 01:37 AM. |

Moon's the only one I've ever seen with a slip. I've never seen White Ribbon with one.
And there was the Crouching/Curse/House three-pack that was out a while ago...I don't know if that came in a slipbox or something, so maybe that counts. |

Agreed, about White Ribbon. I've never seen that one with a slip either. My copy has no slip and any copies in stores I've seen has no slip. And according to the Slipcover Thread it has no slipcover. Woulda been nice if it did though.
Here's a pic of the Crouching Tiger, Golden Flower, and Flying Daggers box. Other than that, it's just the beautiful and extremely rare Moon slip that was made. Last edited by RipleyLV426; 07-31-2010 at 03:25 PM. |

So far I only have the US release of Waltz with Bashir.
I do have the UK releases of Moon, Layer Cake and Paprika, but I didn't know those were Sony Pictures Classics titles, mostly because they were dirt cheap. And price is really the biggest issue with these titles. I'm really looking forward to The Secret in Their Eyes, but I guess I'll have to wait another 6+ months before it hits anywhere close to $20 on Amazon.

Do these things ever go on sale? Moon is the only one I ever see for cheap(aka, under $20). The White Ribbon can be had for $20(via Deep Discount), which is decent, but Amazon wants $28.99 for A Prophet, which is ridiculous. They are great films but cmon, I can get Criterions for less than this.
