^^ That's what I've noticed as well. I just got back from Costco and the only two titles they have are Boyhood and Blood Simple.

My Costco had no Criterions at all this week. I doubt they sold out of the dozens of copies of Boyhood or the In-Laws that had been in the rack the past few weeks, so I imagine the store just pulled and returned them.

Could very well vary by location, but in following the Costco thread in the deals section it seems what I posted before is true in more locations than not. What they haven't had are the box sets, with a few exceptions.

So I guess I'm going to get that GdT set. Considering how the days of coupons are more than likely gone...

Question: How does B&N ship their stuff for products like this? I just don't want that set to get fucked up a bit in the shipping process.

I've ordered from them a few times before and don't recall having any issues of sets being damaged.

I ordered the GDT set. It came undamaged, in a box maybe about the size of a school binder, which was stuffed with brown paper for padding. I also had two other blus in that same package, and they were also fine. It's always a gamble, but that was my experience FWIW.

Looks like Coppola is getting added to the collection with Rumble Fish.

Good news, if I had to pick his fifth best film (we already know the top 4) it would be Rumble Fish.
Hopefully they will do a better job than Master of Cinema : http://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Rumble...Blu-ray/44010/

I loaned my DVD to a friend who hadn't seen it. He loved it. It did get me thinking about the movie again. It definitely deserves a Blu-ray release. It's a shame that I don't hear it mentioned too much anymore. It's a definite standout of its time.

Wasn't there one the those graphic teases for Ghost World like there recently was for Rumble Fish and the Before Trilogy?

It would be nice if some other Coppola got the Criterion treatment too, specifically The Rain People and One From the Heart.

I'd love to see them handle The Conversation. IMO, Coppolas best.

I love "The Conversation", but an excellent, comprehensive blu ray already exists for it (imo). Whereas a film like The Rain People only has a shitty barebones MOD dvd.

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

The movie or the disc?

The disc is pretty feature-loaded. The movie is pretty dated (as the name implies) and stage-y, but well-acted.

After watching it, you need to watch Amy Schumer's spoof in Season 3 of her show.

I wonder how well they could do that chronological TV cut of The Godfather?
