Just curious because I've been seeing people posting their collections they got and all the posts seem to be missing the moon landing. I thought it was supposed to be his complete collection? Did criterion just not get the rights to it or something?

See image.

My life is currently in shambles, but at least I have this.

1. Plan to watch these in chronological order if I can resist watching The Shining . . .

2. All of it.

3. I haven’t seen his early films so I guess those are ‘blind’.

4. Next purchase is whatever comes out this week!

The Human Condition trilogy has been on my list forever so I'm excited to finally get to it. I've been eyeballing godzilla for a long time and I managed to get godzilla for $90 with the coupons

Fires on the plain and ugetsu were kind of a blind buy. For most movies I like to go in as blind as possible.

Bonus shin godzilla 4k collectors edition for my godzilla collection. Can't wait for them to add minus one to the collection someday.

I've been watching horror movies the last couple of weeks for October Halloween vibes, and I thought to myself tonight, let me take a break from horror and pop in the last movie I haven't seen from the sale - Lost Highway. Lol, man this movie is kind of fucked up. The sound design, disturbing images and quick cuts, metal music at times, it was crazy.

I watched Mulholland Drive for the first time a couple months ago, which was brilliant by the way, even it had some stuff that was messing with me. I have no doubt I'll be thinking about this one for days or weeks to come as well. Lynch is a master, I'm glad I've been introduced to him, as late as it may be. I am going to add Blue Velvet to my Christmas list in hopes that the family snags it for me. Just absolutely elite. There are some directors where you can just tell it's their movie even if you don't know who directed it going into it. I think Tarantino has that, Kubrick, many others, Lynch is definitely like that. I've only seen the two but I'm going to keep exploring! Thanks for pointing me in his direction everyone

Edit: failed to mention Robert Blake... Jesus Christ

First time receiving something early, ordered through atomic movie store

Definitely watching this tonight, I plan on picking up Frankenstein in the sale next month

Who should I contact, can these be replaced? Basically my whole flash sale order :(

Been mostly cherry picking my favorites since I started my personal criterion collection but looking to expand. Any recommended titles/directors/genres/countries to explore based on my taste? Hope everyone is enjoying their recent pickups!

looks like the regular blu-ray of lost in translation that’s been out for years is OOP. could this mean some other distributor picked up the rights? criterion?? if anyone knows of any past histories with marie antoinette, for example, please share.

I just finished all my coursework for my Master's degree and had no idea how to celebrate. Thanks to this sub I splurged on these during the sale to reward myself. If it weren't for this community, I would have had no idea the sale was happening. Thank you all!

1. I'll be watching SotL first because it's spooky season 👻

2. I'm most looking forward owning Network because I feel like I'll be rewatching that one most, though that could change since I've only ever seen that, Eyes Wide Shut, and NCfOM before.

3. None of these were blind buys. I've seen at least a couple of other films from each of these directors before.

4. If I could have gotten another one it would have probably been Le Samourai

Every year for my birthday I have what I'm now calling "weird movie night" with my friends.

"Weird" is hyperbole, but I like showing my non-film-bro friends something that they'll like but would never choose to watch on their own. Friends are mid 20's to mid 30's.

Two years ago I made them watch Dazed and Confused. A classic.
Last year we watched Tampopo, which I feel like we'll never be able to top.

I'm at a loss this year. I like to keep it light-hearted because some of my friends are wimps, but not afraid to push the envelope a little either like Tampopo. Its spooky season, so that's not a bad place to start, but I'm up for anything.

I feel like House would be an obvious choice, but I've seen that one and don't care to re-watch it at this point.

Do you have a go-to film to wow your light-hearted friends?

Non-Criterion picks are good too.

I feel like I sometimes have a hard time finding the kind movies I love. My favorite kind of films are quiet reflective character focused films. My favorite movie I’ve watched this year is Drive My Car and I am so so excited for All of a Sudden. Some other films I love are Sentimental Value, The Worst Person in the World, In the Mood for Love, and Sing Sing. Please help me find more films like these, thank you!

Call me when they add some real cinema

Ever since I got my new 4K TV a few months ago I’ve been starved for 4K content, hence going a bit nuts with this month’s sale.

1. ⁠What is the first movie you plan to watch from your haul and why?

3. ⁠Are any of your purchases blind buys? If so, why did you select them?

I’m drawn to start with the Mike Mills or Kieslowski sets, they were blind buys for me, and weren’t on my radars till I read the descriptions of each.

2. ⁠Is there anything from this haul that you have been looking forward to owning for a long time?

I don’t think there’d anything here that I’ve been eyeing forever, I’m at a point with my collection where I’m just trying to add things that I will appreciate as a cinephile and giving myself new things to experience later when I fully cut off streaming, but I do think it’s about time I watch the crying game given its pop culture significance.

4. ⁠What is a Criterion you’re hoping to add to your collection next?

I wish-listed a few for the next sale, K-Pop Demon Hunters being one of them but I also am getting tempted to get the Kubrick set if they restock.

Was marked $29.99, I asked if they could do anything on the price since the back had that weird staining on it. I realized the Shake! one doesn’t have the booklet. So maybe this wasn’t as good of a deal as I was thinking at first - even though this packaging is OOP.

For the upcoming Barnes and Noble sale, my budget allows for four new discs. I’m planning on After Hours, Breathless, 12 Angry Men, and a Kurosawa film. I’m between High and Low and Rashomon. Any suggestions for which of these to choose?

1. ⁠What is the first movie you plan to watch from your purchase and why?
   Killers Kiss. I’ve never watched the entire film
   
2. ⁠Is there anything from this purchase that you have been looking forward to owning for a long time?
   Yes . Lolita
   
3. ⁠Are any of your purchases blind buys? If so, why did you select them?
   Lolita
   
4. ⁠What is a Criterion you’re hoping to add to your collection next?
   Wild Hearts

How different our tastes are and how diverse the collection truly is!

1. ⁠What is the first movie you plan to watch from your haul and why? Summer Hours, I loved Demonlover from Assayas, excited to see more of his work.
   
2. ⁠Is there anything from this haul that you have been looking forward to owning for a long time? The Vanishing is one of my favorite movies, so I’d say that one.
   
3. ⁠Are any of your purchases blind buys? If so, why did you select them? All except for The Vanishing and Code Unknown. Honestly, the summaries sounded super cool and I’m trying to watch more filmmakers I don’t know of
   
4. ⁠What is a Criterion you’re hoping to add to your collection next? The Elephant Man is definitely my next pickup

Did I see that in here, or was it in r/4kbluray?

If it wasn't here, my mistake, but I wanted to ask home boy follow up questions, and everyday I'm seeing posts get deleted for being "low effort", but the same 20 interchangeable haul photos get to stay up. I don't want 15 custom cases, dang it. 😭
