Their site is burping like a mofucka. Titles go up and come back down...

I just saw THE LAST METRO, after the Shimzu appear..

Where are you getting these? I've been typing in some URLs, so far all I've found is a broken page for Shimizu's Mr. Thank You

Probably the result of every member of this forum simultaneously opening up empty pages for every random number imaginable.

It seems like four solid titles in SD on top of the eclipse set, and The Last Metro on blu-ray.

Not a bad month at all, as far as I'm concerned. I'm anxiously awaiting word on supplements, though.

Was Last Metro on the blu-ray line up that was revealed earlier this year?

Fingers crossed for a Last Metro commentary by Insdorf or Toubiana.

Well, good job Criterion on your first release day on your new website being just as much a disaster as the redesign. =D>

It's 7:30 in Criterionville, and all the little elves have likely gone home for the night after not being able to figure out their website. I don't imagine that we will hear any details on specs until tomorrow, so I'll unlock the nascent threads and allow folks to discuss the films.
