Big Mean Jerk posted:Just curious,did they ever give you an update on your set issues? My email has gone unanswered for nearly three weeks now. No. I've been so busy lately I haven't been able to follow up. I should send an email. But it's just movies. They do very well with everything else, so I'm willing to be forgiving. And I don't know what's going on.

It's certainly a film all to its own, it does an incredible job of world-building and Christopher Walken is just excellent in it.

Sweet just nabbed Fantastic Planet blu-ray. Can't wait to trip out to this movie. Also they always gently caress up and have coupon codes that shouldn't stack at the start of the sale. I noticed this 15% code worked for me and knocked a few bucks off the already low 50% off price: https://www.retailmenot.com/view/barnesandnoble.com?c=7846036 It's code: 9GLQ4E2UFU863 Worth a shot, no idea how long it will keep working.

Are there any region-free Criterion blus? I remember the DVDs could be but last I checked all their blus were US-only.

I'm probably going to head to barnes and noble late in the afternoon but I think I'm finally just going to get the Qatsi trilogy. I've put off buying it way too long at this point

!!! That gorgeous Strangelove set is coming out in the UK at the end of the month. That was like half the reason I was asking about region-free blus. The only other one released over here I definitely want is L'Avventura.

I picked up The Graduate and Dr. Strangelove. I have a huge soft spot for The Graduate and that Strangelove kit is just so well put-together that it's hard to pass up.

I know I'm going to get at least one Wes Anderson for this sale, just not sure which yet. I've narrowed it down to Darjeeling Limited, Moonrise Kingdom, or The Life Aquatic. The sale goes into the first week of August right? That would mean I can pick up The New World, gotta have everything Malick.

Its not quite as good as Moonrise Kingdom but I'll defend it all day. Visually its up there with anything he's ever done, and I love the chemistry that Brody, Schwartzman, and Wilson have in it.

Yeah Darjeeling is killer and I'm glad it's gone up in status since it came out.

I like The Darjeeling Unlimited though I can't help but think the Hotel Chevalier prequel short is a notch or two better.

I got Dr. Strangelove, Fantastic Planet, Mulholland Drive and The Apu Trilogy. All blind buys except Mulholland (I know I'll probably get crucified for not seeing Strangelove).

I think I'm gonna have to get Dr Strangelove this Friday once I get paid.

Fantastic Planet is an interesting watch but I found it a little too grating to watch regularly. Maybe a rental first.

Definitely rent Fantastic Planet rather than buy.

Sounds like I will give FP a watch before buying then. Really digging the synopsis so I will check it out very soon.

I really love fantastic planet because I love that era of animation, I can totally see how it wouldn't be for everyone though. I'd say rent before buying unless you know what you are getting for sure.

I'm a huge animation nerd and that movie is too pretty for me to not own. I'll definitely let y'all know what I think of it once I watch it.

gently caress I only bought 3 movies last year because of and now one of the only cheap sources of Criterion here no longer sells physical media (Cineplex store) so now I have a huge backlog. Already own dvd copies of Blood Simple, Dr. Strangelove and Fantastic Planet as well as a blu of The New World and I'm tempted to upgrade all of them but I don't want to spend my entire purchase on upgrades either

Last month I did a really fun(well, maybe fun isn't the word) double feature of Throne of Blood and that new Macbeth starring Fassbender. Highly recommended.
