It's true, I could have chosen a better target for vinyl hate, but I don't think Beiber vinyl exists..at least I hope not. Not going to google it, nope.
Third Man Blu might actually be worth it, there's always begging friends and family for a gift.

Brazil and Following for me

Have you actually seen Following before? Just sayin'.
Purple Noon is a cool flick, though.
me as well - 3rd CC brazil purchase for me (nonanamorphic collection, anamorphic main disc, and now this).
not up for amazon preorder yet.

Following's there for the Nolan bucks, I'd imagine, though the Qatsi trilogy is what I'm really after. It and the Brazil set are looking great, especially given how good their covers are.
Following is hardly great, but it's obviously a very important film as far as his career is concerned. That it also features Nolan's first commentary on a film since Insomnia is cause for some celebration, I think.

lol, I never proclaimed its greatness. But I can see why the title would help Criterion gain some fans. Outside of that awaited commentary, though, the special features feel the tiniest bit spare. One of Nolan's shorts is included, though, so that's pretty cool.
Qatsi's coming with Anima Mundi, which is quite neat.

For what it's worth, there's nothing indicating the commentary is a new one; it's likely the same track that he recorded for the original DVD release back in the day. The short film has been on Youtube for ages, too.

Yeah, this might just be the Criterion transfer then.

Never heard of Purple Noon, but I love the Talented Mr. Ripley from '99, with Damon, Law, PSH. Very Hitchcockian, if that's a word.

I've wanted to see Purple Noon for such a long time I almost forgot it existed.
This caps a year of Criterion playing it safe but I'm not complaining.

Had they played it safe, we would have had Le Samourai and Wild Strawberries by now
Here are the gorgeous covers for The Qatsi Trilogy.
Wish the box was as sharp as these.
Exciting month for me.

why do I come into this thread and look at movies I shouldn't be buying because $$$.
although I'm probably buying in the mood for love next month. Maybe a good bday present. Hmm..

My favorite film of all time.
Victory! I have been patiently waiting for Criterion to release the Qatsi trilogy for years now; Koyaanisqatsi in particular has been at the top of my Blu-ray want list. Also, along with Brazil, that's two of my personal top ten films getting Criterion Blu-ray releases in December. I...*sniff*...I may cry.

Holy shit, Kidnapped/Rabid Dogs on Blu? I am so there. I'll also be adding Baron Blood onto the pile of Bava Blu-rays I need to buy.

Purple Noon is great and blows any other Ripley adaptation out of the water.
Also, if you don't fall in love with either Alain Delon, Maurice Ronet or Marie Laforêt (or all three) you have no soul.
Seriously now. There are now words to describe how gorgeous Delon was at the time.

skidoo collection, letter from unknown woman, long day's journey into night, 3 sercets, that awesome noir box set, uptight, ramrod....

Yup, both films made the same year.
Forgot about the wenders swoon, my bad.
it is sadly forgotten. maybe the best dennis hopper role, one of my favorite wenders movies.
love how he casts all the heavies with noir directors like fuller and ray.

fake trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ARA0GPkt-zk&feature=related might do a better job selling it to ya'll who haven't seen it.
God no.
Someone had to say it.
Well, I'll get The Game then.
Oh really. I must get my hands on that.

Criterion will be screening three previously unannounced films at All Tomorrow's Parties between tonight and tomorrow.
Mystery Train, Kiss Me Deadly, Hunger, Quadrophenia, Being John Malkovich, and Putney Swope are among the ones that were "premiered" as Janus/Criterion properties at earlier ATP events.

Sweet, too bad I missed them all :'(
Chungking Express is listed as OOP on Criterion's site so if this is one you've been waiting to pick up, I wouldn't wait any longer to pick up this amazing film.

Oh should I pick up some extra copies?
Haha possibly. I don't think there's been an official announcement of what the deal is, so for all we know, they could rerelease it, but I highly doubt that.
Which, err, owner of Miramax licensed out Chungking Express? I know that Studio Canal got in on that action, which makes me think this might be related to them. I certainly can't imagine Lionsgate or Echo Bridge caring about a film like that.
