This is great news since I found about Criterion just after these went OOP. It also seems to imply that we'll be getting new editions of Playtime and Jour de Fête. If so, finally a reward for being late to the game!

I hope the wait for Playtime means they're tracking down the newly restored full length version. Jour de Fete in color will also be great if they can get the color version.

This is why I never buy OOP titles on Ebay. Remember how much the old 400 Blows used to go for? $400 - that's a dollar a blow!
Now the new transfer and extras in the boxed set put the old disc to shame.
Glad I waited. VERY good news.
I've been looking forward to seeing these and just never got around to picking them up as they first went OOP.
I'm hoping they have the same spine #s and packaging.

And I thought 2003 was as great year. Ikiru, Jour de Fete, Bad Sleep Well and Stray Dog (rumored), Rules of the Game. I'm going to go broke.

Great, great news!
I really like Tati's work so this is something.
I never bought into the logic of DVD as a collectible/investment. Something always comes along eventually in a bigger and better release.
The Tati new or renewed releases will take the wind out of a lot of speculators (along with 400 Blows). Particularly since the Playtime release will be the recently restored version that played at Cannes.

Is it confirmed that the Playtime transfer will be different than the previous Criterion DVD?
