Re: Criterion releases on Blu-Rays, Part II
While on the topic of price for Lynch flicks, Inland Empire is up for pre-order on Amazon.ca for $60...just the bluray. Not a 4k or anything.
That's probably the most expensive I've seen a single film Criterion bluray listed.

The Warriors is the only one in the last 2 years to get a Standard Edition, so it's unlikely that The Straight Story will get one at this point.

Still steep for any movie, but at least UV does Criterion flash sales (albeit at less of a discount, usually).

I guess The Fisher King is getting a UHD re-release:

Will get Fisher King. On the fence of Triangle. Seventh Seal was released by BFI in the UK and that edition was encoded by Fidelity in Motion (David M.), so I already know that edition is top tier and will most likely be better than CC's.

Very cool to see Small Axe get a physical release.
Seventh Seal... I may upgrade. But that'd be my third or fourth time buying it.
Triangle of Sadness... I wasn't a fan, though the third act was great. Would have preferred Force Majeure, but this makes sense given their partnership with Neon.
