First Criterion you owned
 
In the spirit of the 'First 2disc S.E. you owned' I ask you, What was your first Criterion?

Me: Chasing Amy

I got Chasing Amy on DivX, does that count? :hscratch:

JamesBrian 08-27-03 09:27 PM

Salo - $29.95 at Borders.

paradicelost 08-27-03 09:29 PM

It was either Silence of the Lambs, Robocop, or Dead Ringers.

zekeburger1979 08-27-03 09:30 PM

Chasing Amy for me. It was on sale at Best Buy for $14.99. This was when it was still going for $35.

Get rid of this POS of a movie for some $$$$. And if you MUST have it get one of the non-R1 ones (which are superior)

Same as the first DVD I owned, and the first multidisk set I owned; also probably the first pre-recorded VHS tape I owned:

[i]Rushmore{/i]. It was infact the first DVD I owned. I thought it was priced terribly high but couldn't belief the amount of extra feature listed on the back. I also remember looking at the spine and thinking to myself 'Now why the hell is the number 65 printed on there?'

Picnic at Hanging Rock

In The Mood For Love

and I picked it up not even knowing what Criterion was till a little later.

Der Zorn Gottes 08-27-03 10:05 PM

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.

The Passion of Joan of Arc -- The very first disc I ever bought and one of the primary reasons why I converted from VHS to DVD.

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.
