Are you guys having much luck with the coupons online? I've tried using the new 25% off one and it won't work with just one item it seems claims that it doesn't qualify.

If you look on the product page for the Criterion items, it states that coupons won't work. This started during the last Criterion sale.

Mine too. There is some interesting thematic parallels between the two films (modern society's ability to corrupt), but Walkabout is far more accessible- not to mention gorgeous to look at. Even when Jenny Agutter isn't in frame.
I still can't wrap my head around the fact that Days Of Heaven and Walkabout are sitting on my shelf in high definition. A lot of significant titles are still a long way off, but this format definitely turned a corner in 2010 for me.



Haven't seen SOTG or RD yet, but I would agree with DOH and BN probably being the two most accessible in the list. Your mileage is always going to vary, but both films are exquisitely photographed and the Bds show off the visuals well.
After hearing for years about BTL, I had the same reaction that you did. Was excited to hear Criterion was going to release it, but ultimately a rental would have sufficed.

Ok I understand that but I had Bigger Than Life and Curious Case of Benjamin Button both in the cart and it took almost $4 off Benjamin Button but when I removed it then it said the coupon was not valid. Both of those are Criterion.

Yes, coupons and membership discount do not work online. Best online method is to use the library link and get an extra 10% (really just 5% of course).

Weird. I just placed an order for A Christmas Tale and the 25% off coupon worked ($5 discount). I didn't get the 10% member's discount though. I placed an order with the 15% off coupon yesterday and that also worked (but didn't get the 10% off membership discount either).

Quick question--Red Shoes or Thin Red Line. Haven't seen either but have seen Black Narcissus and Days of Heaven and enjoyed both. Leaning toward Red Shoes but could be swayed toward Thin Red Line.

Good find! You're right coupons are working on a Christmas Tale. That's a good one to get online since it doesn't seem available at stores. If you order online you're not going to get the 10% member discount. That is only available for purchases made at B&N stores.

Saw one copy of Christmas Tale at the local B&N, so they're out there if you're lucky. Of course, I can't find A Thin Red Line anywhere...

I thought I was done buying during this sale, but I a little voice inside my head keeps telling me to go back and buy Breathless and Vivre Sa Vie on blu-ray.

I was on the fence about Breathless on blu-ray, but last night I popped the Breathless DVD from the library into the player and realized I really did like Breathless.

Denied on the 25% coupon today for a pre-order.

Yesterday, I pre-ordered America Lost & Found & Videodrome with it. Today was to be Cronos.

The price on Videodrome & Cronos isn't really all that great, but I want them right away when they're released and with this coupon, it is the absolute best price for them. I'm going to try at a different store tonight.

Which LA store were you able to pre-order BBS story with, and which store were you denied Cronos? Thanks.
