I've got my cart down from $400-$300. I still can't afford it all though.

Probably a dumb question, but are the spine numbers based on the count when the film was added? Like M has spine #30, so was it the 30th film added to the collection?

Criminal Minded posted:I'm definitely grabbing Mulholland Drive, and probably also Repo Man which I've never seen. I showed Repo Man to movie group friends about a month ago and some of them will randomly text me about how it was awesome. Key and Peele did a visual reference to Repo Man before their show ended and it made me smile that my friends understood the reference because I showed them Repo Man.

Yeah I've shown Seven Samurai to a few "non-movie" people and they enjoyed way more than I expected. Trying to talk them into Lawrence of Arabia now and that's not working so well.

Wasn't the December sale this year by B&N and not Criterion? I think B&N honors sales for out of stock and pre-orders, while the main site does not.* *Or it didn't during the summer sale last year.

Egbert Souse posted:Tokyo Story, The Hidden Fortress, and City Lights are getting Blu-only releases in March to replace the existing dual format editions. Interesting, I got the Zatoichi set as a gift on Christmas a year or two ago. If they do a Bluray only set I'll be interested to see the artwork and price. Love the box art on the current set.

Cemetry Gator posted:Has anyone else had problems with the quality of the discs on the Zatoichi set? So far, of the 3 discs I've gotten around to watching, 3 have issues with skipping and not playing properly. I've never had this issue before with any other Blu-ray I have. I haven't made it through all of them but I've had no probs thus far with the set.

The second movie is completely unplayable, it always stutters and eventually freezes for good 31 minutes in.

Thanks for letting us know the Flash sale started. Finally got to use my $10 credit! Picked up Rashomon, 8 1/2, The Brood, Picnic at Hanging Rock. Was bummed I couldn't get Lone Wolf and Cub at a discounted price, but oh well.

Spatulater bro! posted:How do you know that for sure? Could it just be slow? It was supposed to get delivered the 20th, and the tracking says it has been delivered. But I definitely don't have a copy of Rashomon so it hasn't arrived. I filed a missing mail request with USPS and notified Criterion. I just didn't realize it was missing until last night because I thought it was coming slow due to the flash sale demand or something.

I haven't heard from Criterion yet, but kind of hoping for this because I have no faith that USPS will be able to find my package. on that note, the site told me to email orders@criterion, is that what you did?

blue squares posted:What is everyone's favorite type of supplement? Mine is hands down commentary tracks by film scholars or really good critics like Bogdanovich. Maybe other folks are more into the video interviews or video essays? The books are usually my favorite supplementals. I read almost all of them. Then spout the info back to my friends when we pop one in for movie night. Repo Man was particularly fun that way.

Disharmony posted:That's actually not bad at all. Thinking of probably just waiting for the flash sale rather than buy some of the second hand ones I'm seeing in Reddit. In my experience the site always runs fine during the sales, but really popular titles* (it took me 3 sales before catching Brazil in stock for some reason) and new releases tend to go really quickly and the sale price is not honored on out of stock movies and pre-orders (unless that's changed). e: *might not be the case for popular titles anymore as well since they've been sales for several years regularly now.
