The latest Criterion newsletter seems to indicate that an update of Grey Gardens is coming.

Seemed like an unlikely candidate for Blu-ray. Where's Sirk and Mizoguchi already??

Yeah I figured it must have been near the bottom of the priority list. I'm guessing we'll see a single release of both Grey Garden and The Beales?

I'll be happy to purchase Grey Gardens. I never got around to buying the DVD. Blu-ray has been a great catch-up for a lot of titles I missed the first (and sometimes second as well) go around.

And I'm betting Grey Gardens is getting a release because it might be one of the better Criterion sellers. It has a pretty dedicated cult following, and there was of course the HBO movie, too.

I'm sorta new to the whole Criterion thing, but usually what kind of timeframe are we talking about for clues like these? I'm thinking of getting rid of my DVD copy while most people don't know the Blu-ray is coming, but I'd hold off if it won't be for a while.

The packaging for Godzilla is pretty great.

Good question. I think it's hard to say, probably 2-3 months announcement-wise from the time of the clue. Grey Gardens may be announced next month but I think typically, it's longer.

Grey Gardens has had an explosion of popularity partially due to its exposure by Criterion. It had a cult following to begin with, but after the DVD came out it inspired a broadway show and a movie adaptation. They released the second DVD to capitlize on that wave back in 2007 or 2008. It has to be one of their top sellers.

If you think the packaging is great, wait until you see the picture. The BluRay of Gojira is nothing short of remarkable considering how rough the prints have looked in the past. Amazing job by Criterion. Even the print of Godzilla - King of the Monsters looked good. After thinking that I would never see a Criterion version of these films after the Laserdiscs got cancelled, I'm happy that it actually came to fruition. Thank you Criterion and bring on the other Toho titles that had been announced back in the Laserdisc days.
