Yikes, 3 items in my cart already sold out before I could order them. Can I expect those to replenish during the sale or am I out of luck for now?

edit: and they're back. All is right with the world.

Seems like Arrow and Indicator still put in a lot of effort into new video pieces, plus adding archival materials. Kino includes commentaries on almost everything these days - for that matter, the extras on their upcoming 4K of Fear and Desire actually make it a must-have despite it being a pretty mediocre film (two cuts, each with a commentary, all three of Kubrick's short films newly restored and presented in 4K, plus a trailer gallery).

Fear and Desire has the shorts too??? Ah drat, I was gonna pass but might as well catch ‘em all now.

I’m not sure why Criterion Collection decided to include as the last movie in their Jackie Chan collection a movie that has ten minutes of Jackie Chan in the beginning an then becomes a boner comedy starring five guys who aren’t Jackie Chan.

Not just that, but it’s the middle of a trilogy to which they don’t own the rights to the other two! Very bizarre. You can watch the other ones in Shout’s Vol 2 Jackie collection.

I had been slacking on keeping with with Criterion releases, especially their 4Ks. In addition to what I already have I think this mostly catches me up finally.

40% off sale on Eclipse discs is a fun gimmick, although I wish Travel with Hiroshi and other sets weren't still out of stock.

Does Eclipse not go on sale with the regular sales?

Love Criterion Channel but their bitrate and compression is kind of poo poo and this live channel is way worse than usual. Just murdering the grain, macro blocking everywhere.
