Anyone want to talk with me about Judex? I blind bought it because it looked cool, then spent half the movie trying to figure out when it was supposed to take place. (It's a 1963 movie remake of a 1916? serial). The bird head costumes are amazing, but other than that it seems pretty I dunno, standard? Admittedly I haven't watched any of the special features.

I got Throne of Blood, which I'd seen a long time ago, and Tokyo Drifter, which is a blind buy. Also I allllmost got Good Morning, I may have to get that in November in B&N's sale.

Picked up HOUSE and Videodrome from B&N. My wife likes "creepy" horror like American Horror Story, but hates jump scares, I get the feeling both of these are more in the former category?

Did they officially announce a Godzilla box set, or was it only announced that they got the rights?

I really liked House, I need to watch it again. I ended up with Asphalt Jungle and The Killers, I'm interested to see 3 takes on the same story. I was thinking of getting High and Low but it was sold out by the time I got home from work.

Figured it'd look better on the wall than folded up in the box.

Does Criterion charge for preorders when you order or when they ship?

When they ship.

They could always go back and replace #597 with something better.

I have all their Kieslowski films on Blu and every single one is a masterpiece.

Dekalog is especially rewarding. For those concerned about it being ten hours of heavy stuff, the tenth episode is a full-out comedy and hilarious.

I should go back then, the episodes (?) of Dekalog we watched for a European Cinema class were bummers.

For anyone enjoying the Godzilla set, I'd highly recommend the Japanese kaiju TV show form the 60's Ultra Q, released recently on blu-ray. It was shot on 35mm black-and-white and has received a Criterion-level restoration. The series was created by Eiji Tsuburaya, the genius behind the special effects of Godzilla, Mothra, and more. I am floored by how great this show looks, and by how thoroughly I am enjoying it. The episodes are concise and breezy and boast some of the best man-in-suit work I've ever seen.

Thanks for this recommendation, looks neat :)

I like that the comments for Zeferelli’s Romeo and Juliet is people comparing notes about watching it in HS and what their teachers did about the nudity.

After Hours is burned into my memory because of seeing the cover at the video store with his head being twisted as the stopwatch stem really bothered me as a kid.

Almost bought For All Mankind for the second time but I had already added it to my collection on Criterion. Should really get around to watching it.

Criterion can’t be the arbiter of taste because Tiny Furniture got a release.
