The Trilogia should have ended on Sunday morning. But it went on and on...and it's still going. If this keeps up enough into tomorrow, I will so buy this...

It's like Kramer and That Other Guy in Seinfeld, challenging the Saab to see how far they can get on an empty tank of gas. How far will it go...?

Like a jolt of lightning; it can occur any day now.

They say...

... When the dog won't stop barking.

... and your peculiar neighbors resume making those funny noises at night.

... That very moment you realize... It's coming... soon.

Sadly none that I really want.

one big criterion flash sale purchase for me! (The Essential Jacques Demy)

BizCat · 02-27-2017, 04:49 PM

Bought Bitter Rice, Dazed & Confused, and Rosemary's Baby.

Will now wait for Criterion's Flash sale and will pick up a few others.

TheLaughingMann · 02-27-2017, 05:55 PM

I have nearly everything I want right now. The Trilogia is the only thing I'd bite on for a little less if the price holds going into tonight or tomorrow morning.

OTOH, some of these Amazon prices are actually pretty good if you happen to need any of the 2-3 titles more than 50% off and depending on your sales tax situation. With Criterion Frequent Buyer points you;re likely better waiting for Criterion in the long run, but everybody's situation is different

Finally ordered the Trilogia. Money is there. I did the order last night, figuring they'd process it this morning. But I got an Update My Payment Method prompt. Fortunately, they can't charge totally if the money isn't there. So I refreshed and looks like it took. At this point, except for Ghost World, I am all caught up with my Criterion wants.

Did someone mention Schwarzenegger?

Total Recall should be a Criterion IMO!

I preordered the Before set months ago and ordered the Trilogia the other day. Never got shipping e-mails. Hope they're still coming today.

BTW, it looks like Amazon is PMing Walmart on these. That's why the Trilogia price has remained in effect.

Painful memories.

Once a upon time... Criterion hinted Kindergarten Cop... as expected, I was both shocked and excited.

As days passed by; it soon turned out to be a prank/false rumor.

Needless to say, I almost fell into depression that year.

Even those hand written notes from Becker didn't do much. From there onwards everything felt unreal.

True Lies should be a Criterion set.

We owe it to Bill Paxton.
