I may have to wait till the sale is back. However, I hope I don't get dinged duty charges as that can really negate any savings.

No, but I think it's a reasonable assumption.

Criterion made a comment on Facebook about the "mythical 4 hour cut"... so maybe all it ever was was just a rumor.

There may be a ton of deleted scenes that we may never see (which may include a bunch of actors/characters we never got to see in the film), but that doesn't mean Malick actually put together a 4 hour cut.

Billy Bob Thornton apparently did confirm recording a narration for a long cut of the film (~3.5hrs) that was ultimately discarded.

He did. There were plenty of interviews with different cast members I read back when the movie came out. Essentially, Adrian Brody, who wasn't a name at the time, was the lead and he was completely cut out. They kept every single "major" cameo at the behest of Fox and Malick somehow made it all work in the shorter edit.

See that's what I remember. Everyone talking about the longer cut.

Ha! Billy Bob Thornton and his myths!

I read somewhere that he claimed he was married to Angelina Jolie!

I ordered a bunch of titles. Not during the most recent sale, but the one before that.

Didn't get dinged with duty, but they did take longer than expected to arrive.

That's good to hear.

When they have their sales, what kind of prices are we looking at for Criterion BD titles?

Anywhere from $13-$20 for the $40 titles. It depends on whether or not you have a membership and if you do, if the cashier allows you to use a $5 coupon on each title. $40 - $20 (sale) - $2 (membership discount) - $5 (coupon) = $13. Use the same formula for the higher priced titles to get the final discounted price.

I think Coral meant for Canadians who have to order online.

I got them for $18.99 shipped to Australia if that's any help for Canada buyers, I expect it would be slightly cheaper to Canada for shipping.

I pre-ordered The Thin Red Line through Amazon. Could not wait until the next B&N sale.

Why not just Netflix it in the interim?

I heard they weren't good with getting Criterions on time? I got a decent deal on it through Amazon using a gift card so it's not terrible.

That had completely slipped my mind, and I was the one who originally voiced the complaint! Carry on.
