I just got my gift certificate so the flash sale must be imminent in the near future.

I'm a Criterion Channel charter subscriber and my April email contained a $20 gift card.

I think the delay is because of Criterion. They're slow when it comes to releasing titles.

Actually, I think it's going on 2-3 years since Scott MacQueen finished that restoration before his retirement from UCLA Film and Television Archive in 2021.

Yeah, but I can understand their rationale. Two movies on a single 4K/UHD disc will still be at most 2.5 hours.

Not really considering the extra cost of producing 4K/UHD discs and the runtime of each of the five films. 78 Minutes 77 Minutes 79 Minutes 73 Minutes 73 Minutes

Looks like I'm buying those five films again on home video.:laugh:

That layoff news was posted in this same thread on Thursday. Post in thread 'Criterion Blu-ray titles!' https://www.hometheaterforum.com/community/threads/criterion-blu-ray-titles.268475/post-5170917

Maybe not!

Yup, I might not buy this Blu-ray.

Raging Bull or Rocky are about as different boxing movies as you can find. Rocky is a boxing fantasy while The Raging Bull is much more realistic (boxing-wise) as it's a true story about a real boxer that was a despicable human being.

Criterion’s offices are in NYC.:)

I don’t think they would be releasing it again if it’s not too correct the aspect ratio error.

Do the March titles qualify for this Flash Sale?

Calling Josh Zyber.:)

Also, a film scholar with a sense of humor that points out some things that might not work in the film, but does so with some humor. Eddie Muller is a master of such commentary. His Film Noir Foundation collegues Alan Rode is good in that regard while Imogen Sara Smith is excellent and does...

If you're talking about the actors/directors that were involved in the making of the movies, such commentaries are impossible to do now, when it comes to films like "Love Affair" (1939) and (Written on the Wind" (1956).:)

I think it depends on who’s doing the commentary!

Yeah, that kind of sucks.

They did for me too.

What a surprise, one poster names it that, and you brand the entire forum for being that way.:rolleyes: That's not fair either.

It was Image in 2014.

To be fair, you don't think the following post from you could be interpreted as a little snarky too? Furthermore, let's be honest that many of our members are also posters on that other forum. We try our best to keep things civil here.

That isn't fair!

That 4K disc would be a huge seller for them.

Gotcha! I know some will disagree with the following because they're satisfied with 1080p. I guess those of us that want the best that home video can offer audio and video presentations-wise is screwed then when it's a Criterion release derived from a 4K scan/transfer. :(

That's not what I wanted to read as I find that unfortunate for those of us that want to watch these movies on the best looking and sounding home video formats. If I had my way, I would drop DVD for 4K disc.

I was just talking about releases in the States.

Actually, you can use the DVD Profiler database to find out such information.

Mona Lisa was a 2001 DVD release from Criterion. It was released by Image on Blu-ray back in 2010.
