Not to mention Criterion has their own 50% off sale in late September/early October and mid/late February.

F for Fake and Tati are absolute must-haves, plus I've been meaning to see La Dolce Vita and My Darling Clementine for ages. I'm hoping they are upgrading the "trailer" instead of using the ratty B&W VHS dub again, especially since it's on the MoC edition. I might actually order the Tati set from Criterion since $100 is actually less than what the separate releases would have been, even at 50% discount prices. This is an enormous masterstroke on their part since Tati's estate intervened to ensure Criterion kept the rights instead of going over to Lionsgate.

Apparently, someone contacted Les Films de Mon Oncle and they confirmed the special deal. Most likely, they knew that Lionsgate would never release any of the Tati films, let alone a box set.

A Criterion release would be a dream come true. And then my second genie's wish would be for an uncut restoration of Plague Dogs.

It'd be really cool to see Criterion do some more animated films. Something like an Eclipse box of Soviet animation would rule.

Has there ever been talk of the Eclipse sets being upgraded to blu-ray? I've been weirdly hesitant to buy any of them in the hopes that they might (and also because of hulu). In any case I will re-buy F for Fake at MSRP with goddamned bells on; that movie is a joy.

The sell sheets for The Vanishing and the Tati set have StudioCanal logos, but nothing for Lionsgate. This might indicate that they ended the exclusivity.

I would also like to use my coupon on some samurai films, what's a better set: Samurai Trilogy or Yojimbo & Sanjuro? Haven't seen any of the films, just looking for opinions.

Gotta love mom and pop record stores. After cashing in some points and using a coupon, I just bought Scanners bluray for $11 with store credit I got for trading in a bunch of crappy Spider-Man comics from ten years ago!

There's so much diversity on a visual level just within Watership Down itself: the opening prologue, the hallucinations, the underground scenes vs. above ground, etc. I'm also seconding that it would be incredible to see an uncut release of The Plague Dogs stateside. It's one of my favorite films of all time.

I didn't get a 15% off coupon from B&N (I don't get B&N e-mails anymore, apparently), so if anyone wanted to be really nice and send me their coupon, I would think of them when I was watching my Cassavettes boxset. I realize this is a shot in the dark, but e-mail me here if you have no use for your coupon: jacobtanner0@gmail.com Also, are there any Eclipse boxsets that are considered "must own"?
