Some pretty good news from a couple of days ago. I can't imagine they wouldn't release this on Blu-ray eventually.

At this point I wouldn't rule out them adding something like BTTF to the collection.

I know Criterion’s hints are usually pretty crude pictures but that’s the shittiest drawing of a car I’ve ever seen.

When I've let my mind wander about Star Wars and Criterion, I've wondered if Criterion would be willing to license spine# 1977 to Disney/LFL for a Bluray release of the theatrical cuts of the Holy Trilogy.

I know they would sell like gangbusters even without it, but it would be a nice tip of the hat to the SW contribution to cinema.



But anyways, was thinking about the Silence of the Lambs release, it's really the only pending title on my wishlist of Criterions right now, are there any issues that would make one hesitate to get it?

Other than agreeing with you, I'll say hat I would also be happy if Disney put some real effort into their own restoration. I still hold out hope that when this new trilogy is complete, and if the Fox rumors become reality, they will put out a proper Complete Saga set

None at all. All around fantastic release. And FTR, I thought the NOLTD disc is just as good. Far surpasses the previous restorations.

Thanks for the thoughts on Lambs, I’ll get that and with my three different DVDs of Manhunter, my Hannibal collection will be complete.

I’m sure it is, but I can’t bring myself to part with my Anchor Bay 2 disc set. I got the Divimax remaster disc and then I found the theatrical cut from the box set by itself at a thrift store and I’m pretty proud of my little collection now.

Sorry for the sidetrack, back to spine numbers

“Terry doesn’t see this as a director’s cut,” says Criterion president Peter Becker, who insists that the 139-minute theatrical version is the official “director’s cut” and remains the centerpiece of the Blu-Ray edition. “It’s a fresh view of the film that has a different rhythm and a different balance.

Finally! When I met him a year and half ago he made it sound like it was almost done. Can’t wait to watch the new cut.

Maybe Jim Caviezel will now be the main character.
