Wonder if #1000 will be some big studio classic, like Citizen Kane or something, what with the major studios being less reluctant to give out distribution rights now than they used to be in the heydays of dvd.

If they aren't going to have Godzilla have a spine number like the other box sets but still plan on releasing it then I would be happy with 1000 being Pink Flamingos.

Spine 1000 could be a montage of every time Donald Trump took a dump in the White House, but if it were UHD 4K, I'd still be over the moon.

I guessed that they could announce #1,000 to be a UHD-BD title (whether a title they've done before, or a new title on all 3 formats). Criterion released their first BD title 2.5 years after the first BD title was released on the market, and it's been almost 3.5 years since the first UHD-BD title was released. If figure if Criterion doesn't announce support for the format at this point, then it'll never come. The format is just too niche for an already niche collection. |

According to this post, Mo' Better Blues is coming to Blu-ray, but no idea if Criterion is handling it.

I’m really bad at the picture clues, mostly because I’m stupid. It would be cool if it was Spoiler:
|
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
I think it is Old Joy.
|
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
Never heard of that one. That’s probably it. |
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
Old Joy.. .ugh.
I found it incredibly boring and monotonous. |
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
Is this the antithesis of my namesake? Though not Criterion looking so forward to new UK edition of OldBoy. Sounds freaking amazing!!
Edit...of course this is Arrow release so packed to gills. I got chills... |

(not really, but... what if it was??? Nah, it'll probably go to Kino like LH, if anything...) Not sure what else Criterion could add, unless they could do a high def transfer of the extended cut with *all* the deleted footage restored. |
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
total blue skying. :)
I would imagine that if Criterion managed to work out a deal and have Lynch involved, he'd demand that the extended cut and most/all deleted footage be kept OFF the release. He had no fondness for all that, as I recall. |

FYI: Spike is selling signed copies of DTRT off his store for retail + tax and shipping. Link is on his Instagram. |
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
That would be cool, but DHL shipping at $42 isn't going to cut it.

Upcoming releases I plan to purchase:
Matewan All About Eve Now, Voyager |
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
Recently watched Cold War on Amazon. It was in 4K and looked fantastic. I thought the movie was great, but knowing I can watch it in 4K means I'll probably skip the Criterion BD. |

Don't think I need anything else from this batch |

Sometimes I see this riddle drawings, and then somebody posts the answer, and I think the events in the drawings would be more fun to watch.
A duck in a temple? It almost writes itself. |

Happy to see that Greg Mottola's The Daytrippers is getting the Criterion treatment!

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
Looks like we Canadians may finally see some less-ridiculous prices on Criterion releases, as Criterion will now have a Canadian distributor.
Toronto: Criterion Collection Lands Canadian Distributor It'll still be overpriced, but maybe we could see more Criterion BDs for less than $40 now. |

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
Unless they are cheaper than when Barnes and Noble run their sale, not much changes for me.

re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
Just received my email with the December titles listed.
Really looking forward to checking out the 287 minute (wow!) director's cut of Wim Wenders' "Until the End of the World." https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/dvdtalk...1569307875.jpg |
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
Wow.
Can't believe it's finally coming out... |
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
That's a big-ass release in terms of minutes.
To be honest, I was somewhat underwhelmed with it. It was ambitious and was decent - but there were just many boring parts. It could've easily been trimmed by an hour or more. Speaking of boring, I see "Old Joy" is a December title. I almost slipped into a coma watching that. |
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
The one film by Wim Wenders I’ve seen, which was Paris, Texas I really liked a lot. His filmography doesn’t seem accessible to my taste generally though. |
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
Never seen Until The End Of The World but it seems fascinating so I will give it a blind buy.
|
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
Oh my goodness. Finally after much teasing, one of my top 10 all time is coming. Thank you Criterion!!!
|
re: The Criterion Collection 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread
I bought the Dvd of Until The End Of The World back in March......really should have waited. Im both excited and annoyed with myself
