Criterion Blu-ray titles! (1 Viewer)

[Robert Crawford]

Nothing for me either.

 

[TravisR]

I'll probably get Boyhood and Pan's Labyrinth.

 

[Ruz-El]

Boyhood, Pan's and Short Cuts for me eventually on a sale.

Nothing for me either.

Nope, Criterion saving me $ in October. Was hoping for His Girl Friday.

 

[Mike2001]

I'm in for Tree.

 

[dpippel]

Pan's Labyrinth for me.

 

[Adam Lenhardt]

Pan's Labyrinth for me.

Me too. I'm glad it's coming out before the usually reliable November B&N 50% Off Criterion sale.

I really enjoyed Boyhood, but I can't see it getting repeat viewings.

I don't know if i'll buy Boyhood again; probably. and definitely Pan's Labrynth. The Movie was amazing, and was robbed of the Best Foreign Film Oscar.

Gene Siskel said that Tree of the Wooden Clogs was one of the best films of the 70's and i agree with him. A great film and happy Criterion is releasing a Blu-ray.

I'll get Pan's Labyrinth in the next B&N sale, as I already have Cronos and The Devil's Backbone, and much as I like the idea of the box set, I have no desire to double dip for it.

It's a great film. The problem that year was that The Lives of Others is also a great film. If I had to choose one, I'd personally go with The Lives of Others.

I agree that THE LIVES OF OTHERS would be a better choice.. PAN'S LABYRYNITH bored me to death

Why even bother? I dumped my Pan's Labyrinth DVD years ago. One tortuous viewing was enough for me, just too ugly and violent. Why no classics, Criterion? You used to be somewhat democratic with your releases.

 

[Mark VH]

Pan's Labyrinth is magnificent and I'm grateful to Criterion for releasing it, as it's one of the great theatrical viewing experiences I've had. Also thankful we're getting Boyhood. The rest sound wonderful too. This really has been a banner year for Criterion, who never seem to run out of amazing films to release. Can't wait to see what November has in store.

El laberinto del fauno and Boyhood are great movie experiences. Of course, as other posters can attest, tastes vary wildly. Pan's Labyrinth is a magical film grounded on a horrific time that is still a gaping wound in Spanish history. Boyhood is about growing up, and well, we all go through that, don't we?

Criterion UK's October releases:
10th - The Emigrants/The New Land
24th - Day for Night

 

[Derrick King]

Criterion Cast tweeted that McCabe & Mrs. Miller has been pushed back to October, with no firm release date.

Why no classics, Criterion? You used to be somewhat democratic with your releases.

Just because Tree of Wooden Clogs and The Executioner are foreign doesn't mean they're not classics.

NEVERMIND THE FACT THEY RELEASED GILDA, THE KID, ONLY ANGELS HAVE WINGS, DR. STRANGELOVE, THE GRADUATE, THE MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE, HERE COMES MR. JORDAN, DR. STRANGELOVE, CAT PEOPLE, AND NIGHT TRAIN TO MUNICH THIS YEAR! MY FEE FEES ARE HURT!!!! BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" Oh for chrisssake....

Careful, "Cat People" is cheap horror genre garbage that is beneath Criterion...
