All in for Blue Velvet and Underground Railroad, two masterpieces. Victims of Sin sounds really great too.

Hanging Rock and Werckmeister are both all-time top 100 for me.

I'll watch The Servant again, but probably as a rental rather than a purchase. No interest in seeing the other ones again.

They're not adding anything new.

Why?

Daisies cover is awesome, totally appropriate for the film. I'm 100% down for Malcolm X, and most likely Daisies. I've only seen the first Infernal Affairs movie, so I'll probably just get that one from the library. ITMFL or Power of the Dog are both very good, but I don't like them enough to...

Daisies is amazing, happy to see it get a separate release from the Eclipse set.

or Vinegar Syndrome. or New Line, who DID release Pink Flamingos on DVD back in the day.

What a surprise, the one non-English language title for the month gets branded as "pukey crap" on HTF :rolleyes: It's a pretty good movie.

Technically they've released two from Ghatak, since A RIVER CALLED TITAS is in one of the WCF boxes. But yes, I agree. As much as I love Ray (my favorite director), they could release a lot more Indian cinema. And what about Iran? There's a whole lot more besides Kiarostami, guys! Makhmalbaf...

If only there was some website you could visit to find that information....

Yeah, Claudine is not at all "blaxploitation".

I'm pretty sure the folks at Criterion don't give a damn about the Oscars.

Yes. It's a ridiculous way to stretch the clue. There would be a million better ways to hint at Eyes Wide Shut. Not to mention it breaks the consistent theme of box sets in the drawing.

No. Just no. As mentioned earlier, it's a Wong Kar-Wai (one car why) box.

Also Show Boat

Should I be shocked by how many people here can't recognize Beyonce?

That reviewer has a reputation for being, well, an idiot.

yep, one of their more obvious clues

The only Bette Davis movie I want (since we've already got a Blu of Baby Jane) is Beyond the Forest. Maybe someday....

Betty Blue Cold War The Daytrippers Now, Voyager All About Eve

It's usually between 3 and 6 eastern time, so if they're being consistent, could be any minute now. (of course, there's also no guarantee they will be posted today at all, but it's USUALLY the 15th or first business day after it)

Prince of Tides, obviously

An American Dream and King of the Beats

Do the Right Thing - One of my faves, definitely all over this for the proper color timing. The vague features listing does not make it entirely clear what's being carried over from the Universal Blu-Ray, but there's no sign of the 20th anniversary commentary, so I guess I'll keep both editions...

War and Peace is the big winner this month, one of my all-time favorites. At long last!

It HAS to be Cloud-Capped Star (Meghe Dhaka Tara)!!! So excited, one of my top 100 films! And if the three little clouds indicate it will be the whole partition trilogy, even better!

Nope

Did you really think Criterion was going to release ALL of those in one month? These were at least a dozen titles hinted at.

That guy who posts every month about Criterion not releasing Harold Lloyd is going to have to find something new to complain about.
