I really want "Pandora's Box" in Blu-Ray too. The Silent Films somehow seem cooler in Blu-Ray. I loved watching "Modern Times" in HD....And Im dying for "Wings"(1927) to get a proper release.

I know what you mean. I still haven't watched my copy of Modern Times, but I had a blast watching The General. Pandora's Box would be great, but I really want Passion of Joan of Arc.

Not to get too off topic but Metallica's upcoming experimental album with Lou Reed is titled "Lulu" and is supposed to be inspired by German Expressionist films such as Pandora's Box and others. I'm not a huge Metallica fan but I will be checking out the album.

As the cinema component to the 2011 All Tomorrow's Parties U.S. Festival, the Criterion Collection has programmed theatrical screenings for seventeen films in its library.
From September 30th through October 2nd, films will be shown at the Berkeley Hotel on Ocean Avenue between Asbury and Sunset Avenues in Asbury Park, New Jersey 07712.
The following list details Criterion's full schedule for those dates. All showtimes are EST.
Friday, September 30th -
Zéro de conduite at 2:45 PM
Blow Out at 6:00 PM
Sweet Smell of Success at 8:15 PM
Island of Lost Souls at 10:30 PM
Quadrophenia at 12:00 AM
Saturday, October 1st -
Being John Malkovich at 12:00 PM
Putney Swope (Q&A with director Robert Downey, Sr., to follow) at 2:15 PM
The Times of Harvey Milk at 4:45 PM
The Rock at 7:00 PM
The Phantom Carriage at 9:45 PM
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas at 12:00 AM
Sunday, October 2nd -
Deconstructing Dad: The Music, Machines, and Mystery of Raymond Scott (Q&A with director Stan Warnow to follow) at 11:30 AM
Rushmore at 1:30 PM
The Killing at 4:15 PM
Belle de jour at 6:00 PM
12 Angry Men at 8:00 PM
TBA Film at 10:00 PM
During this long weekend, Criterion will screen all of the films free of charge. This link connects directly to Criterion's official festival rundown, which has further information on the individual films as well as on the rules and guidelines for attending the festival.
Of particular note are the Quadrophenia, Being John Malkovich, Putney Swope, The Rock, Deconstructing Dad: The Music, Machines, and Mystery of Raymond Scott, and Belle de jour screenings, which suggest that Criterion is planning future home entertainment releases for these titles (or, in The Rock's case, a Blu-ray upgrade from Criterion's 2001 DVD edition). Further corroborating Putney Swope on Criterion Blu-ray or DVD is the following video showing Robert Downey, Sr., selecting titles from the Criterion Collection's product office; similar clips with Guillermo Del Toro and Michael K. Williams precluded Criterion's Blu-ray announcements for Cronos and Life During Wartime, respectively.

I've already preordered the AUS Universal blu ray of BJM but it was only $13 so happy to get a criterion version when it comes.

Belle De Jour is available through Studio Canal in a decent release. It was also the answer of one of the simpler Criterion Newsletter hints. Now as for the Quadrophenia news, well that is fun. I only ever saw Being John Malkovich once but I did not care for it at all.

Adaptation's an Image title for the moment with a January release date. But it will be a bare bones release so maybe sometime into the future.
