Chasing Amy... three days after I bought my first 2-disc SE. :D

In The Mood For Love
and I picked it up not even knowing what Criterion was till a little later. |
Life of Brian for me.
I can probably recite each and every Criterion I owned, and name the month (and year, of course) when each was purchased. Life of Brian was September 2001. |

Hopscotch

The Third Man.

Robocop

Chasing Amy again... more as a Kevin Smith fan than a DVD fan. But it really opened my eyes to the versatility of DVD, not just Criterion.
|
Silence of the Lambs for me, which was the 3rd DVD I purchased (after pre-ordering the Army of Darkness 2-disc set and ordering the A Nightmare on Elm Street box). I think I ordered it from reel.com, but I'm not sure.

Do Criterion laserdiscs count?
That is going back many years. First one I bought full retail was Picnic at Hanging Rock. |
Still don't own one.
Probably get Chasing Amy one day. |
Silence of the Lambs - one of my first DVD's even. I had never watched the film, didn't know what a Criterion was and the list goes on and on...
Bought the movie, loved it and found out about two months later that they was no longer makin' them - and I had no idea why. |
Hard Boiled. And a few days later I got This Is Spinal Tap. Good thing too since both DVDs were OOP a few months later.
|
I bought three at the same time:
Grand Illusion (Renoir/1937) The Passion of Joan of Arc (Dreyer/1928) The Unbearable Lightness of Being (Kaufman/1988) My count currently stands at 100 (with 10 on order, and 9 on my Wish List). |
The Seven Samurai
|
1st: Robocop
2nd: Chasing Amy The only two Criterions in my collection I remember wanting Robocop CC because of the uncut version, but the Best Buy i worked at only ever got 1 at a time in. I also remember saving a good $10 on it with employee discount...which is odd for a DVD that was only $35. |
Another Chasing Amy here. Followed by Royal Tenenbaums.
