Criterion Blu-ray titles! (3 Viewers)

[ManW_TheUncool]

Reminder -- Criterion.com Flash Sale may be on for tomorrow Oct 17 starting Noon ET. No announcement yet, but 3rd Tuesday is common and Streaming people started getting their $10 Promo Codes so a good chance

Hmmm... in quickly checking my emails, they apparently also sent a $20(!) code to charter subscribers to celebrate TCC's birthday back in April (in addition to the usual semiannual $10 one that precedes a flash sale). Seems like they started sending the extra gift code for charter subscribers a year ago (though the previous one was $10, not $20).

So if anyone's a charter subscriber, should probably doublecheck your emails -- you might have the extra $20 code sitting there waiting to be used from early-April after the last flash sale...

Lucky you! I'm a charter subscriber and I only got a $10 gift certificate, plus another $10 certificate in anticipation of tomorrow's sale--that one for being a Criterion.com shopper.

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

Check/search your old emails again. The $20 GC Crawdaddy and I received was from early April (*after* the last flash sale... and different from the $10 GC they also sent just *before* that flash sale). And yes, there was also another $10 GC from the other day as David mentioned (and probably what you're referencing) -- I apparently received mine last Friday.

In all, makes me very glad to keep my TCC subscription going indefinitely...

Another month of UHD reissues and films I have seen and would never, ever want to own. However that's my own opinion.

And not mine. Other than the Chantal Akerman set (nothing against CA, just doesn't excite me overmuch) everything is a solid gem for me. Especially Mudbound, Lone Star (on UHD, to boot!), and the Apu Trilogy on UHD.

I updated the sticky thread in the DEALS section, but heads up that the Barnes & Noble 50% off MSRP Sale is due to start soon. Some confusing information being given by BN Employees, but the SALE will either start Friday Nov 3 or Monday Nov 6 and appears to run though Cybermonday December 4th

What happened to this company? The video compression is almost always poor and they also use additional low-pass filtering to ease the job. They use more noise reduction on the audio than any other boutique label. They are good for pretty product presentation/packaging and extras. That's it. I used to be a big fan, my favorite boutique label even, but nowadays I just get disappointment everytime they announce a title a want because I know the technical presentation will be subpar. I only buy Criterion when there's no other option available. They just don't care anymore. I hope someone will rescue Roeg's Walkabout. So sad.

I was just at my local Barnes & Noble store and the clerk at the front desk confirmed that the Criterion 50% Off sale will begin tomorrow, November 6th. Get your wish list ready!

Waited for the B & N sale to pick up the Tod Browning set but Amazon had it for exactly the same discounted price.

Finally!! Not only are they releasing a movie I want (The Roaring Twenties) for the first time since their late 2022 release of Arsenic And Old Lace, but they're releasing it on 4K to boot! I'm definitely getting that one!!

Not familiar with The Roaring Twenties, but it looks intriguing.

Same here.

 

[ahollis]

I'm in for All That Money Can Buy.

 

[TravisR]

The Devil and Daniel Webster (yeah I'm not calling it "All That Money Can Buy" even if it was the original title)

I'm definitely no authority but I've never even heard any other title for it than The Devil And Daniel Webster.

Anyway, I'll pick up Devil (or All That Money Can Buy) and To Die For.

Hoping for a decent month this time! There are so many great films out there whose only/best hope for a quality HD or 4k physical release is Criterion.

Typically, we should expect an announcement today. However, being a holiday I am not certain if Criterion will push announcement to tomorrow.
