I love it when someone bumps this thread in the middle of the month without posting pics of new titles \:D/

Why? Look at all the writing extras on
Criteron's site .
PLUS: A booklet featuring new essays by Mark Le Fanu and Kim Newman, Koerber on the restoration, and a 1964 interview with producer and star Nicolas de Gunzburg, as well as a book featuring Dreyer and Christen Jul's original screenplay and Sheridan Le Fanu 1872 story "Carmilla," a source for the film

Gosh, there's been a lot of digipacks slated for release recently.

Digipaks look better than regular cases, imo. They have a nice feel and the flat spine looks a lot better on a shelf.
Vampyr looks awesome.

Not to mention the bigger books. I wonder if soon all Criterion releases will be digipacks.

No chance. Most releases don't warrant it.

Looking at the list of unreleased titles, there aren't many that would warrant a digipack. Max Ophuls and Bottle Rocket would likely be digipacks. Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence and The Human Condition probably will be too.

White Dog will come packed in a collectible ceramic Doggie Treat Cookie Jar.

As long as it does not attack non-caucasian customers upon delivery...

I'd like to think that if White Dog were released by Milestone it would come in a box of chocolates.
Like five people will get that, but it would totally make sense.

This looks like the most attractive package since the BRD Trilogy...but, is it really a package?
