Would Nashville be another "entry level" Altman worth seeing? The only others I've seen are The Long Goodbye (perfection), The Player (meh) and Popeye (excellent).

Nashville is the best Altman. I'm not sure about entry-level, but it was my second one after MASH, which is also basically perfect. Also watch Short Cuts.

Nashville is essential viewing in general, as are Short Cuts, McCabe & Mrs. Miller, 3 Women, MASH, and Secret Honor.

The only people I know who dislike Nashville are those who have an incredibly stupid and myopic view of country music. Nashville is one of the essential American films.

Like the rest of the free world I'm pumped about Nashville, but I'm surprised there's no deleted footage on the disc. Is that all lost now?

According to Altman there actually was very little deleted footage:A/V Club posted:O: The new DVD version, I noticed, didn't have any deleted scenes. There's said to be hours of footage from Nashville that weren't included. Did you want any of that to see the light?

It's funny because I actually first heard of Investigation from a fake Criterion cover: which I prefer to the real cover:  But yeah. Hype for that as well.

Ehhhh, of all the Errol Morris I've seen, it's the one I'd like on Criterion the least. Surely MGM isn't clinging on to the rights of Gates of Heaven or his other earlier films.

I went ahead and grabbed Naked Lunch, Safety Last and Shoah. I missed out on the last Criterion sale due to furloughs so I definitely wanted to get myself a little something-something this time around.

I decided to pick up the following: Autumn Sonata The Red Shoes El Norte (w/replacement case) Last Emperor (w/replacement case) Two-Lane Blacktop Close-up Charulata The Night of the Hunter Band of Outsiders I've been a really bad boy lately with Criterions, so I've told myself that I'm going to skip out on November's B&N sale and just make the Zatoichi set my #1 birthday wish forever and ever (since my b-day is the week before it comes out).

Can anyone confirm if the 50% code works for preorders? Edit: Never mind just tried and it didn't work. Jeff Wiiver fucked around with this message at 23:36 on Oct 1, 2013 |

City Lights is the only "must have" left on my list after getting Safety Last! and Wild Strawberries in the B&N sale, but alas...Jeff Wiiver posted:Can anyone confirm if the 50% code works for preorders? Pre-orders are always exempt from Criterion sales. B&N does mark down pre-orders for anything released within the sale period, though.

I don't see another StudioCanal apocalyptic mess coming. That was more Lionsgate's fault since they demanded exclusive rights. When Anchor Bay had the rights to the library, they let Criterion editions co-exist. Major studios are moving away from licensing from other studios anyways.

A question I know has probably been asked before: what are the odds of the Tati films coming back into print? Figured I should ask before overpaying for Playtime on Bluray.....

StudioCanal got the rights last July according to google, so the Criterion is probably never coming back, but there will definitely be a SC version at some point if you don't mind waiting. Their releases are usually solid.

Wow are OOP Criterion blurays really in the $100+ range? I have really lucked out with some blind buy Criterion blurays--got both Man Who Fell to Earth and Playtime blus when they were in print.

I bought The Third Man on blu-ray once I heard it was going OOP even though I still have the DVD (and I had the version before that too, but sold it very cheaply to a friend). Been meaning to offload the second DVD but have been lazy.

Their releases are usually solid. Is this really true? LionsGate hasn't released a whole lot in the US of the catalog that falls under the "StudioCanal Collection" and they have a ton of great stuff. A lot of it is available for rental on Amazon. e: At least I think some of the stuff I saw poking around on Amazon is through that big rights acquisition, might be from elsewhere but that catalog is so big I get confused

Every time I see the prices on The Man Who Fell to Earth blu-ray, I am so happy I bought it (and Frost/Nixon) for like $50 on SA Mart. It became my favorite movie, and it's really cool to say I have.
