I'd rather read one post with 11 guesses than 11 posts complaining about it :lol:

Okay, on topic:

The Secret Agent

Hud
Chocolat (Denis)

The Small Back Room (the restoration screened 2 years ago) This could very well be the next P&P
There Will Be Blood …to coincide with PT’s Oscar win, wishful thinking on my part

I'm usually terrible at these, but I'm like 93% sure KPop Demon Hunters will be announced this round, since the news broke last month, and I see Frankenstein being a November/December kinda title.

All I got.

Edit: it's also up for pre order https://www.amazon.com/KPop-Demon-Hunte ... B0GSC8QHZB

It says the preorder is for December 31st, 2026, though so I assume that probably means it won't be announced this round.

Didn't know that, apparently though they did do this for Flow too (a title announced officially a couple months after the Amazon link opened) and given the fact that the Artwork isn't even confirmed yet, I think it's best to assume this probably isn't coming today.

Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore
Cape Fear (1962) / Cape Fear (1991)
Dog Day Afternoon
The Elephant Man
(upgrade)
The Great Escape (upgrade)
The Secret Agent

If the rumors are true and Criterion does have both Cape Fear films, I really hope they split the films into individual releases.

Bluray.com has the link on their front page under pre-orders and it connects to Amazon

Interesting that it works through there but not the reddit post it was linked in. I was getting a sorry page, now I’m not.

They changed their ASIN code a some point, so the old link I posted broke I guess.

At any rate, I forgot they did the same thing with Flow, but it makes sense (at least to me) they'd get this out sooner rather than later, and in time for the sale in July.

EDIT: Actually, my original one went to a 4K (now gone), but now they only list a Blu-ray and DVD. It would be INSANE not to release this on 4K.

Given a December 31 release date, there's plenty of time for that to change.

The Films of Leos Carax (Possibly complete, but more likely just Boy Meets Girl, Mauvais Sang, Lovers on the Bridge, It's Not Me)
The English Patient
Lolita
Hud
An Autumn's Tale
Empire of the Sun

Long shot, replace the Leos Carax set with a Complete Stanley Kubrick collection (minus Fear and Desire.)
