You guys can all forget about "Before Sunrise", "Before Sunset" and "A Scanner Darkly" being released by Criterion. Those are all Warner titles and Warner doesn't deal with Criterion. I wish they did, because they own the one Linklater film unreleased on DVD (Suburbia) and I'm sure Criterion would be happy to release it but the fact of the matter is this: it's not gonna happen. There's really only one other Linklater movie that could possibly get the Criterion treatment. Lion's Gate is currently trying to buy out Image Entertainment. Image just bought out Criterion. If that buyout occurs, Criterion would have access to Linklater's "Tape".

according to an interview with Linklater, this maybe happening sooner than later:
Criterion is going to do a really kick ass DVD of Dazed. It is something to look forward to in July. It is going to have commentary tracks, it’s going to have hours more of additional footage and interviews it is going to be so cool.

Have the original bare-bones release and glad that I had the sense to avoid that dopey Flashback release.

Sweet. Is there a link anywhere?

Yeah, I just searched for this thread to bump it.
Sounds like the June date that Linklater gave will hold up...and since he gave me the right information on that, I assume we can also trust that he's recording a new commentary and getting a handful of other goodies together for the disc. Should be a great release.

I'm kinda bummed the 'workprint' cut wasn't included but I'm sure all of the stolen Indian subplot and more will be found on the deleted scenes. The Universal ones were terrible.

Wow, I am bummed that the excellent 2-hour AMC documentary isn't on there. I can't imagine the 50-minute doc being quite as good. :-(
