Nickelodeon Trilogy Criterion HD-DVD
Someone get Mulvaney on the line- this is a totally breakthrough idea for HD-DVD to win the format war!
Three pack box set:
1. Goodburger: Special Edition
2. Harriet the Spy
3. Snow Day
What better way to inaugurate Criterion's transition to HD-DVD (no way Criterion would go blue ray with all those compression problems!!)

Awesome cover bunnydojo. It reminds me of one of the first Good Burger mock-ups, based on the CC Silence of the Lambs.

Of course you saw Goodburger CC here years ago. I dont know what you find so funny. Also, thats not a mockup- that was the original design on its initial release. I cant be surprised that Criterion would adapt it for its GLORIOUS HD debut.
Ketsup packet scratch and sniff inserts. Mustard color disc art. The possibilities are wonderous.
I consider the Nickelodeon Trilogy to be up there with the Orphic Trilogy in importance for one. Criterion never apologized for the public debacle surrounding the original Goodburger CC. Now its out of print and, due to not even having the rights the first time, its been stripped completely from its catalog. Even SALO didnt get it that bad.
I guess maybe we should be hoping for a Hitchcock Criterion type box set for the Nick series of classics down the road. That would make sense from Criterion- they usually relish releasing films one at a time unless they come from a single auteur

This film could actually make for some interesting theme packaging. How about a hamburger bun looking outer case with a lettuce insert, a tomato coupon book, a cheese disc one, and a meat patty disc two?
I'm actually curious. If Paramount were to actually give the rights to Criterion, maybe even pay them, would Criterion release this film?

"The Criterion Collection, a continuing series of important classic and contemporary films, is dedicated to gathering the greatest films from around the world and publishing them in editions that offer the highest technical quality and award-winning, original supplements."
The glaring absence of Good Burger in their catalog is just shameful.
