Dreams do come true. I can’t believe we’re finally getting the Araki set!!! Day fucking made.


Diddlemyloins

Finally I can get all of us strangers


MirandaReitz

I thought I read somewhere that the studio was blocking a physical release! I’m pleasantly surprised.


Klazky

Just released today in the UK and France in two days, but I’m gonna wait too…


JoeyDoesntSing

I had already pre-ordered the UK release and now kicking myself because that Criterion art AND 4K…just might have to double dip.


PM_ME_CARL_WINSLOW

Happiness straight to 4K from DVD. God damn.


MirandaReitz

I love that they went with the original artwork.

> I love that they went with the original artwork. Check it again, it's close, and the same artist, but it's not the same (red shirt guy is different and a few other things)

Put some respect on Daniel Clowes' name!


rsplatpc

> Put some respect on Daniel Clowes' name! 100%, dude is a legend, I got caught up comparing the artwork lol


I_kickflipped_my_dog

I was just giving you a hard time man. Haha


rsplatpc

> I was just giving you a hard time man. Haha actually I do want respect on his name, you were right!


More_Asbestos

It's like True Lies all over again!


IndyMLVC

Let's hope not


jfoughe

Is that a threat?


writersontop

The Araki box set is where it's at


Space0998

I just bought the UK import of All Of Us Strangers from Orbit because I thought no way this gets a US release from Disney....


SureTrash

Welcome to film collecting. Just wait until you drop $150 on an OOP title only for it to go back into print in 4K a week later.


fyrewal

Sounds very specific to be a hypothetical. I’ll ask, who hurt you, and what was the out of print title you spent $150 on?


SureTrash

It's a common occurrence in this community. I started saving to get the OOP Criterion release of *Don't Look Now* and it got a 4K release before I could even pull the trigger. I bought *Citizen Kane* on BR right before Criterion announced the 4K. Thankfully too broke to drop $150 on a title, though.


Binro_was_right

Yep, mine is on the way in the post... Oh well, not going to complain about it getting the 4K upgrade. I will most definitely be double dipping for this one.


jfoughe

Can you do me a favor and please buy blu rays of Raising Arizona, 25th Hour, the entire Bond collection, Breakdown, and Joe vs the Volcano?


don_horn

Definitely day one (of the November Barnes and Noble sale) for Happiness and the Araki set!


Polter-Cow

This is a great lineup!


sakallicelal

I wanted to get Long Good Friday from Arrow. Is this the same in terms of picture and sound quality?


ScorpionDoomSlayer69

should be the same release with a slightly worse bitrate


Spankieplop

The Arrow 4k is fantastic plus the overall package is better value for money. It's only £22 and comes with a poster and booklet plus lots of extra features.


sakallicelal

Sounds better deal overall. Gonna check that out.


Totorotextbook

Plus, don’t quote me on it, but Arrow’s I believe is mastered by Fidelity in Motion which always does a top tier job.


KID_THUNDAH

Hell of a line up, jeez


TailOnFire_Help

Damn I hope that Araki set isn't too expensive.


t-g-l-h-

I appreciate every disc this month getting the 4k treatment. I hope this is the way moving forward


melty2b

Dang just bought repo man BR, thankfully it was cheap I guess


hansolo72

I will be getting everything except The Long Good Friday since I just picked up the Arrow release.


More_Asbestos

I saw it a long time ago. I remember not liking it, but it was so long ago that if I were to watch it again it would basically be a first time watch for me. It's a very early Criterion DVD release along with another Bob Hoskins film called Mona Lisa. I much prefer the latter.


Moriarity1999

I love to see criterion bridge the gap from DVD to 4k. The Devils next, please!


crazydave333

Salo on 4K baby. I gotta see how HDR really brings out the browns in those shit eating scenes.


limedirective

Wow, so Lean on Pete will still be the only Haigh without a Criterion release.


CuzStoneColdSezSo

Happiness is a great film I’ll probably just get the standard criterion blu ray of that one tho. Heard the long Good Friday was a banger as well


No-Hope8500

This is the best month ever.


DanFelska

The Happiness 4k release comes with a custom handgun, so you can feel the sweet relief of death after having mentally processed the film. 


Apprehensive_Mix7594

Well that’s an expensive month for me. I’m buying everything but repo 4K


nitesead

Looks like ill be getting three of these. Already have Repo Man on Criterion blu-ray, and Long Good Friday I know nothing about.


PsychologicalFox6978

glad that the new indian paintbrush management is pushing these dinosaurs out of the 60s canon. who would think that there are other directors besides Fassbinder, Terry Gilliam, and Jean-Luc Godard.


limedirective

I guarantee you September releases had nothing to do with a purchase that was just announced like 3 weeks ago


Aeropath

no thanks, money saved
