re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
I just finished watching Shallow Grave tonight after UPS delivered it this afternoon. Great film and wonderful presentation. If any of you are making lists for the impending B&N sale and haven't completely decided on what to get, I highly recommend this film.

I don't know Kino's release announce days, but here's hoping the early Kubrick set is announced. :fc:
|
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
the cover art and order button for Children of Paradise (1945) is gone from Criterion's website, so that seems to be a lock for announcement today (Blu upgrade).

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
The Game, finally.
And, more excitingly for me personally, another Marcel Carne film. |
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
Finally
|
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
Really excited for "The Game" despite the shitty cover art.
|
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
I gasped at The Game. Especially since I wasn't totally sure of what I just saw with that cover art.
|
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
Mother of pearl. The Game is finally happening. And I actually like the cover artwork a fair amount, though it's more in concept than overall execution.
Umberto D. and Children of Paradise are most welcome, too. |
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
I'm satisfied w/ the coverart for The Game as well
|
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
Not thrilled about anything this month, though I may pick up Umberto D. That cover on The Game is a nice stab at Bass.
Now... c'mon, Kino- smack a homer and bring the runners in! |
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
The Game is "director approved", but I think we knew that.

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
I am glad that The Game finally go announced so I wouldn't have to read people's posts complaining about it not being announced.
|
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
After having finally seen The Game recently, I'm looking forward to finally owning it.
I'll have to also grab Eating Raoul because I love Paul Bartel. |
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
I will be picking up The Game and Eating Raoul. I'm interested in seeing that alternate ending for The Game and hearing some of the audio commentary.
I might pick up the other Carne film as well. |
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
Umberto D and The Game. Yes. Oh...motherfucking yes.
|
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
Cover art for The Game looks awesome!
|
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
Just the magnificent Umberto D by itself would have made the month for me...I will be buying all of these!

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
I'll take all five!
|
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
Those Carne covers are just gorgeous! Nice to see some classics, it seems like it's been a while. I'm in for all except Eating Raoul, which will likely be a download candidate, as Netflix are essentially useless for new Criterions.
|
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
I just remembered I picked up Eating Raoul from Big Lots a few years ago - I guess it's about time to actually watch it.

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
I love the cover art for The Game. Glad to see they finally are getting that one out.
Where's Early Kubrick? Don't make me beg. |

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
Children of Paradise and Umberto D are nice - but I'm not sure need to upgrade the DVDs though.
I must be the only one who thinks The Game was just average. |

The correct procedure is to briefly lament having bought a title you didn't watch, then sell it back somewhere and upgrade to the BD... that you'll never watch.
|
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
I've never seen The Game but I'm willing to give it a chance since it's a Fincher film.
|
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
the extra Carne film is awesome news!

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
I'm most excited about Umberto D. It's my favorite De Sica. The cover art seems like a grab at The Artist but it's fitting.
