Re: Criterion releases on Blu-Rays
I've never gotten around to seeing The Last Metro. What would you compare it to? Would it be a good blind buy?

Re: Criterion releases on Blu-Rays
Love that new Seventh Seal cover. Definite buy from me.
I hope Criterion puts out a few Melville titles on BD. I'd love Le Samourai or Le Cercle Rouge. |
Re: Criterion releases on Blu-Rays
I could probably survive with only the Bunuel titles, personally.

Re: Criterion releases on Blu-Rays
Anybody know if the picture in HDD's Marienbad news story is the actual cover for the BD? Looks pretty generic.

Re: Criterion releases on Blu-Rays
^ personally I like it, since the film is so utterly visual, for the DVD/bluray to look like that seems restrained and purposeful

It's somewhat similar Rappeneau's Bon Voyage or Tavernier's Safe Conduct.
I think I'm going to pick it up. I'll give it a spin after 400 Blows, which I'm incredibly excited for. |
Re: Criterion releases on Blu-Rays
According to this Reuters report, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button is being released by Criterion in May on DVD and Blu-Ray.
"Benjamin Button" DVD will be in stores May 5 (Reuters) : Reuters Wed Mar 18, 2009, 11:15 pm EDT LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - " The Curious Case of Benjamin Button " will keep retailers curious no longer: "Button" DVDs will hit stores May 5. The "Button" plans were sewed up during the weekend, and Paramount will announce the home-entertainment release date Thursday. The Brad Pitt / Cate Blanchett -starring film won three Academy Awards and is among the last of the high-profile Oscar pictures to set a debut on home video. Fox Home Entertainment will release Oscar best picture winner "Slumdog Millionaire" on March 31. Universal Studios Home Entertainment 's "Milk," for which Sean Penn copped a best actor statuette, hit retail shelves March 10. USHE has set an April 21 street date for its political drama "Frost/Nixon," which, like "Button" and "Milk," was a nominee for best picture. The fifth nominee -- the Weinstein Co.'s Nazi-themed drama " The Reader ," for which Kate Winslet was voted best actress -- will be released by Genius Products on DVD. No date has been set. Paramount Home Entertainment also set a June 2 release date for DVDs of two other Oscar-nominated pics: " Revolutionary Road ," starring Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio , and the Daniel Craig -toplined "Defiance." In addition to its single-disc packaging, "Button" will be available on DVD and Blu-ray Disc in two-disc Criterion Edition sets featuring more than three hours of special features. A documentary on the second disc follows the creative development of the literary adaptation and its many production challenges, including the elaborate, Oscar-winning visual effects. Single-disc "Button" DVDs will sell for $29.99 in the U.S. and $36.99 in Canada. Two-disc DVD and Blu-ray sets will be priced at $39.99 in the U.S. and $45.99 in Canada.

Re: Criterion releases on Blu-Rays
Weird. If true, I find that pretty surprising.

Re: Criterion releases on Blu-Rays
If I read that correctly, the Criterion will be the only Blu-ray edition available. That could be big for Criterion.

Re: Criterion releases on Blu-Rays
wish I liked 'Benjamin Button' more than I did, to actually support and purchase the Criterion blu-ray edition.
so...wait, is the first Criterion/Warner corelease? (psst, I want 'The New World' on blu Criterion) |
