Criterion in April
Though far from an official announcement, one should take note of these Canadian pre-orders, complete with release dates. Full credit for the first two goes to empyrium from the Criterion forum.
F For Fake
Divorce Italian Style
We also have a new April 5 release date for the Wajda set, according to the same...
Three War Films by Andrzej Wajda
And this mystery Wajda thing, given the same date.
Wajda Classic...?

Great news if it's true - it does seem really odd that Amazon - Canada would have the information before anyone else...
I've wanted "F for Fake" on DVD for quite some time.

Heck, he didn't even know who Park Chan-Wook was, before giving OLD BOY the Grand Prix at Cannes. Never mind that the guy is one of the biggest directors in Korea.

While I consider The Rock and Armageddon to be slightly above excrement, at the very least, they are not pretentious. This is more than I can say for other titles in the CC... some are insufferably boring and overindulgent, but that doesn't mean I can't love them. Where else could you see Robocop in the same collection as Ikiru? Criterion, I salute you!

As usual a Criterion announcement has the normal zombies ripping the Rock and Armegeddon. Aren't you all tired of it yet? If I mention Star Wars will Rivero pop out of the woodwork in this thread as well?
