I wouldn't be angry, per se, but I'm 1,000% with you on this, otherwise.

Well be angry... Adaptation is a Sony product. They don't work with Criterion.

I could've sworn it was Region free. I'll have to check.

My understanding is that Sony have some ownership/distribution rights to Repulsion and provided Criterion with the master that they used for their DVD and BD release. I think there are some other collaborations, for example the Criterion laserdisc commentary from Taxi Driver is now on the Sony BD.

Also the America Lost and Found set. Actually, Sony and Criterion work together a lot

now if Sony and Criterion could get their acts together and release 'The Fisher King' 'Adventures of Baron Munchausen' 'Bram Stoker's Dracula' that had all the extra goodies on the laserdisc editions.

wait...i didn't AoBM was on LD for CC. Wtf did that have on there?

My brother and I spent 12 hours going through the 'Baron Munchhausen' laser disc back in the early 1990s. Still holding out a candle that Criterion gets to press that out someday.

Dracula in its original colors would be nice too.

HD upgrades for Stray Dog and Drunken Angel. Have Criterion ever hinted at two titles in the same clue before?

Sweet! Stray Dog is one of the Kurosawa's I've most been wanting to upgrade, but both are welcome. Let's keep them coming so I can get The Hidden Fortress blu soon.

plus the inclusion of the original subtitles

A poster on the Criterion Forum noted that all previous clues referring to Blu-ray upgrades had a blue tint, so it's not necessarily the Kurosawas. Also, a double-clue would I believe be a first.

Plus "Bottle Rocket". Sony only started licensing to other distributors in the past few years but off the top of my head they licensed "Bottle Rocket" to Criterion, "The Larry Sanders Show" to Shout! Factory, "The Real Ghostbusters" to Time-Life and "Fright Night" to Twilight Time. Then there are all those Image titles like "Adaptation" and "The People Vs. Larry Flynt".

... and Ikiru!
... ... and Red Beard!

There's too many Kurosawa classics for them to be released timely! Box set time.

... ... ... and Rashomon!

good. he knows what a good film is, now it's time to make one.

...how dare you.

You, sir, are dead to me.

He already made three. Get you eyes checked.

And a great TV show to boot...

off topic: What was that filmed on? I'd like to see that on BD if it'd benefit...which...I would assume but it is UK TV w/ that...look.

if it is the Kurosawas, I'll be purchasing ASAP. Especially Stray Dog.

Bring on any Kurosawa films. As already said, there are just so many great ones.

I'm not sure what it was filmed on, but I would LOVE to see that show get a nice Blu-ray release. One of my all-time favorites.
