Do they count preorders?

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

No.

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

Negative. I have vivid memories of folks waiting around until 3am the last day of a sale, just to make sure they could sneak in an order for a new release Criterion. (Did this myself with Repulsion, I believe)

DVD Beaver on Stagecoach

Nice to see Bucking Broadway is in HD, as are all of the new video supplements.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

That is fucking gorgeous.

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

Oh its going to be so F'n hard to wait for that B&N sale.

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

hell i'd settle for $20 criterions again.

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

Amazon reveals August and/or September slate (?) -- Hold on to your wallets kids:

Antichrist
Videodrome
Seven Samurai

And I'm unaware of a Darjeeling Express, so this may be error on Amazon's part (in that case I think you know what this should be)...

The Darjeeling Express

(And the afore mentioned The Thin Red Line.)<br><BR>

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

:thumbsup:

i want them all....this is the first i'd heard of VIDEODROME coming this year.

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

I was hoping that The Thin Red Line would have a $59.95 retail price...then I would know it had to include a 4 hour plus director's cut.

I guess I will just have to wait a few more days to find out.

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

Woah. Even though Darjeeling is his worst (IMO), I'll be grabbing that Anderson film. Now where the hell is Rushmore?

Videodrome...maybe. I rented it for $.99 on VuDu and after I watch it I'll make my decision. Nice to see more mainstream titles from Criterion instead of artsy-fartsy stuff ;) .

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

Was it called "The Darjeeling Express" instead of "The Darjeeling Limited" in some other country, or is that another movie? I can't find it on IMDB.

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

Great news. I think The Darjeeling Limited is one of his best movies. Terrific news all around.

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

For those interested, Walkabout is $24.99 right now on Amazon. Found it when I put in a pre-order for Thin Red Line.

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

:banana: Absolutely loved The Darjeeling Limited. That'll also be quite a looker in HD.

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

The Playlist Nation seems to think all those previously mentioned Fall release titles are coming, as well.

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

^ that's another one i want! :thumbsup:

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

Excellent...I've had it pre-ordered for a while at $34.99 (using a gift cert). Hopefully they automatically dropped the price for me as they usually do.

Although most of the BD titles now up for order have been open secrets or confirmed as coming for a while, I could not be more pleased to see The Thin Red Line officially on the way. Scratch that...I'm thrilled beyond belief!

I've got Walkabout and the July Powell/Pressburgers on pre-order now...factor in the upcoming sale plus The Thin Red Line and Criterion will get at least as much of my BD dollars this year as they did DVD dollars last year...which is to say quite a bit.

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

I'm so relieved Walkabout is finally seeing release. It's been almost two years now when Criterion announced their initial list of Bd films, and I thought they would end up losing the license before they got it out.

That said, $25 is still too much for me knowing that a couple of major sales are right around the corner. Even if you don't wait for the 50% off one, the B2G1 will average it out to under $22.

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

I've been slow on writing my review (nasty time at work), but good God, this is a gorgeous Blu-ray disc. It's not the traditional HD eye candy, no, but it's such a beautiful, beautiful film. What I wouldn't give to have Don't Look Now on Blu-ray too...

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

I'm in for Charade, glad I didn't purchase either of the two previous releases. Seven Samurai and Videodrome would have to include new video extras in order to entice me to triple-dip.

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

+1.

Not for me. I'd pay so much more than $25, if I had to.

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

I think I may have to upgrade to Blu for Antichrist.

That prologue is just so...

And The Darjeeling Limited too!

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

Really incredible news.

Charade
The Darjeeling Limited
The Thin Red Line

Criterion has announced so many "dream" titles.

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

^^^ Technically Criterion didn't announce these recent batch of BD's, it only hinted (strongly) that "Thin Red Line" and "Antichrist" were coming. Amazon pre-orders leaked the info about these new-to-Blu titles, Criterion didn't announce them (just confirmed it after the cat was out of the bag).

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

They also said that they've been working on The Seven Samurai for a while and had hoped to release it around the same time as Yojimbo/Sanjuro, but it required too much additional work.

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

I'm definitely in for Seven Samurai and The Darjeeling Limited. I suspect Videodrome will be added to my collection as well. I'm not sure about the rest... I'll probably rent the others first (as I haven't seen them). I've heard nothing but great things about Charade.

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

Walkabout 22.99 right now

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

^ @ amazon.com

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

I'll buy Videodrome even if there's no new extras on the disc. Keeping my dvd too, it has a great packaging.

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

I totally forgot to order Walkabout, it was in my cart and everything and I thought I placed the order.

Anyway, too late now. They've pushed that one up to $32.49 now.

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

Whew, glad I nabbed it.

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

Yep. Me too. fucking Amazon.

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

Just a heads up. If you want the new M BD you can get it for $21, give or take a buck, using the same B&N deal that everyone has been getting Doctor Zhivago and other things with.

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

Or wait until July and get it for $13...

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

I didn't have any luck using those coupons at B&N last time and wasted hours going from store to store. I'm not the only one who had more issues than usual with it this last time. I'm done with that deal.

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
 

Haha, to be fair Brent, it's probably karma since you (I think it was you) successfully got Amazon to PAY YOU for taking Monsters Inc and Up off their hands. If that wasn't you, then I apologize.
