Re: Criterion releases on Blu-Rays
The planned standardization is proceeding as scheduled. Please outfit yourselves in the gray coveralls you were issued at orientation and form a straight line beginning at Window "C". When it is your turn at the counter, the facilitator will request any non-standard, previously issued packaging materials that you have in your possession, and will exchange them for properly retro-fitted, completely standardized, molded plastic containment vehicles for storing your digital media. That is all.

Re: Criterion releases on Blu-Rays
Weirdly enough I've only seen Repulsion on the big screen when it was rereleased like 10 years ago. I'll buy it.
I want all of Krystof Kieslowski's films to get Criterion Blu Ray releases Darn It!!! Anyone know about that - I know that is a pretty random thing to know about :-)

Re: Criterion releases on Blu-Rays
A Blu-ray of Double Life of Veronique would be wonderful, but unfortunately Kino owns the rights to the rest of his films (other than the Three Colors trilogy, which is Miramax), so I wouldn't hold my breath. Their much ballyhooed Wong Kar-Wai Blu-rays seem to have been indefinitely postponed. Also, Kino's track record in general is pretty spotty.
