Right. It came out when they were releasing Blu-rays. Seems odd.

There are a few titles like that, including Z and L'enfance nue, though the former was supposed to be receiving an HD upgrade at one point and the latter was (I believe) their last DVD-only mainline title other than Louie Bluie, which was inexplicably given its own release instead of being included as an extra on Crumb.

I wonder if the DVD that Netflix carries is even the Criterion disc. I have a DVD of The War Room that's more than 10 years old. I wouldn't be surprised if that's the one Netflix has or another earlier release.

I wish it could be real. I'd get it.

on a serious note....Criterion does know they'd have a cash cow out of Good Burger right? Just release it, CC. Just make it true.

Why is it that April Fool's Day stuff like this ends up being cooler than any of the "real" stuff?

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
Has anyone heard of anyone having problems with the new A Night to Remember Blu-ray? My father said it stopped playing right as the iceberg arrived. I directed him to Mulvaney's email to get a replacement disc. I was just wondering if anyone else has had this issue or if this is an isolated incident. No one on Amazon was complaining about any glitches.

Thanks.
