And for my fun guess:

Eclipse Series Peter Bogdanovich: Behind The Curtain - At Long Last Love / Noises Off / That Thing Called Love / Hollywood Confidential: The Cat’s Meow

[Mr.DarjeelingLimited]

Eleven titles. My dude, what is this

All interchangeable to me lol. I just think we’ll see some of these not all.

[FrauBlucher]

I think what Domino is suggesting is this really necessary

[domino harvey]

I feel like once you start guessing more than six titles, even if you guess correctly, you get points taken off because you are casting too wide a net. Where's Minkin when we need her?

[soundchaser]

Lolita
Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore
They All Laughed
Girl Shy
Atlantics
So This is Paris

(Part of the fun, such as it may be, is using one of your limited guesses on wild picks. Do I think Criterion is going to release some of these? Not really. Will they be in my six slots every month? You bet. It’s not as enjoyable if I do six sure guesses and only then add the impossible asks.)

[therewillbeblus]

And it's more gratifying if you guess as many titles as Criterion releases per month and they happen to pick one or two of yours. Why post in here other than for that gratification when we can always speculate in the other thread

[Lowry_Sam]

even if you guess correctly, you get points taken off

So has anyone actually accumulated more than 2 or 3 points over the years (besides Bressionaire)?

I think most people only throw in one or two actual possibilites, with the rest being longer term hopefuls (otherwise people would have the
exact same list every month). Also, since boxsets have become a rarity & there's the perennial complaint about Criterion sitting on titles, there's also the hope that Criterion steps up the number of individual titles per month.
