Any idea on the release date?

 

[Kelley_B]

date??? I can't wait, I love this movie.

 

[LukeB]

July 9, from what I have read. That's the Criterion/BV release. There is just one.

 

[Adam Lenhardt]

So, are the supplements the same or what? How can there only be one release?

 

[Marc Colella]

How can there only be one release?

Same idea as Chasing Amy... where the disc is a joint venture between BV and Criterion.

 

[JohnS]

Glad to see they got rid of that pinkish hue color from the front cover

 

[Sam E. Torres]

please tell me the other rumored bottle rocket criterion is on the way...

 

[Sam E. Torres]

i am pretty disapointed that owen wilson will not be participating in the commentary, however.

 

[Steve_Knutzen]

Did Owen co-write Tenebaums with Wes like Rushmore and Bottle Rocket?

Yes.

Oh, I didn't know that. Thanks for the info

 

[Joe Vidal]

Does this mean there will be a "deluxe box-set compilation" of Wes Anderson criterion's?
Think of it : Bottle Rocket, Rushmore and Tennabaum's in one tidy package!

 

[Jussi Tarvainen]

I heard that the SMRP is $29.95. Since this is a BVE/Criterion collobration, it's not hard to believe.

 

[Dan Brecher]

Oooh look at that!

It's fantastic to see so much new cinema in The Criterion Collection (In The Mood for Love, Traffic, George Washington...)

Since I fell head over heels in love with The Royal Tenenbaums I await this feverishly. My most anticipated DVD of the year except for Brass Eye, released tomorrow in the UK!

 

[Greg_Y]

Not to be rude, but does anyone else think that the cover is pretty "non-Criterion looking"? Even though the discs have that Rushmore type look, this is the busiest Criterion DVD cover I've seen. Maybe they didn't have a say in the packaging (?). Regardless, it sounds like it's true, it's Criterion + Wes Anderson + 2 discs, and that adds up to must-have for me.

 

[Jon Robertson]

It's made up to look like a hardback book (note the wear and tear on the spine and corners), but BV probably just wanted it to look as much like the posters as possible.

The inside looks to be done by Eric Chase-Anderson, which is great news!

 

[Kenneth Vestergaard]

Please OH please let this be true.

 

[Sam E. Torres]

just out of curiousity, does anyone know what the words are on that first disc that end in -ram and -shore?
