I'm still waiting for the proposed Ghost World Criterion BD.

With that said, I hope it happens. Ghost World was actually one of the first DVDs I ever bought, and a Criterion Blu-Ray (not to mention one that could potentially include all the deleted scenes, either separate or recut back into the film) would be fantastic.

Is it me or does A Face in the Crowd sound like the kind of movie that Criterion would put out?

Not licensed from Warner, WB handled the DVD distribution, but the Caidin Trust/Caidin Film Company owns the film, I believe. Home video rights are with the UCLA Film and Television archive, theatrical rights are with Fox (from their 1960s remake), so the Criterion is licensed from those sources.
New Line (Warner subsidiary) licensed a few films to Criterion. I wouldn't be shocked if Warners proper did this at some point, although I'm just speculating.

Sort of off topic but I wonder why it is that Criterion have released all of Wes Anderson's films aside from the release of Fantastic Mr. Fox. Not a big deal I guess just sort of curious. I assume that maybe in this case the studio released their version first and maybe Criterion will license it later or something.

Last year I had a list of 20 titles, I placed an online reservation for all of them and managed to get them all. I'm hoping to repeat the experience.

I read on another forum that the B&N sale is starting on July 10th. Really looking forward to picking up La Haine, Certified Copy and The Gold Rush.
