Picked up the Collected Shorts of Jan Svankmajer. Nice!
Considered the two Harold Lloyd sets, but there was a little too much overlap with the New Line releases for my liking; also might go back for the three Lubitsch silents.

Now I haven't seen many Kino titles, but even I know that such movies are the foundation of todays cinema. Go buy all the early Italian cinema and you'll be blown away.

As for the company...
From Kino's website:
http://www.kino.com/about/index.html
Unable to find existing video distributors interested in purchasing small art films, Kino established its own label, Kino On Video, in 1987. Our first release, Mark Whitney's tapestry-like documentary on C.J. Jung, Matter Of Heart, was an immediate success, and set our new venture into video distribution off and running.
Kino on Video has grown substantially since that first release. It not only disseminates contemporary world cinema to communities and institutions which might not otherwise have access to those films, but also provides new life to many classic films which were not previously available to the public outside of a few big cities. Kino on Video has contributed significantly to the resurrection and distribution of films from the silent era, which are often prohibitively expensive to restore on film, but can be economically and beautifully preserved with new video and digital technologies.
Kino on Video issued its first series of silent films, "They Had Faces Then", in 1989. This ten title series included Erich Von Stroheim's Queen Kelly, The Cabinet Of Dr. Caligari and The Phantom Of The Opera. It was a smashing success, and filled a void by providing quality restorations of films from the silent period to the home and institutional collector. Since then we have released over 130 silent films on video, many through our rewarding association with Film Preservation Associates, headed by film historian David Shepard.
Among the highlights of Kino's silent catalogue are the five-part series "The Movies Begin", consisting of 122 films made between 1894 and 1914, the ten-part series "The Art Of Buster Keaton", released in 1995 and winner of Entertainment Weekly Magazine's "Best Video of the Year" award, "The Slapstick Encyclopedia", and more recently, the 1924 version of Peter Pan.
In 1999, Kino issued its first DVD release and today has more than two hundred and fifty titles available in that popular format. Some notable Kino DVD releases include: "The Art of Buster Keaton" collection, the restored version of METROPOLIS, and the complete 14-film "American Film Theatre" series. One hundred additional titles are available on VHS only.
Kino now boasts a catalog of one of the most important libraries of classic and contemporary world cinema titles available to the home video collector -- and the critics agree! In 2002 and in 2003 Kino on Video won the prestigious Heritage Award from the National Society of Film Critics for its work in film preservation.

I've always liked Kino, they really try to find things no one else is releasing, and do a good job on the transfers too.

Last year's Kino 50% off thread has a lot of recommendations and some words of caution that are still very applicable:

The Keaton set is a steal at under $100. Also "Staker" is a fantastic film if you enjoy slow contiplative movies with interesting images.

Yes, because as everyone knows, Michael Haneke is the famed auter of German expressionist cinema.
I really want to go in for the Haneke titles, but I can't help but feel like they will be in a box soon with a price point closer to the Film Noir set...

even some of the fukasaku are not your thing I wouldn't think many would consider them slow or boring. or the miike stuff for that matter.
I will be picking up "I was an S+M writer" "Tokyo Trash Baby" and "Brother" I would have picked up "Vibrator" if it wasn't for the superb Korean import with the soundtrack. I have to wait until the 9th probably.
