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

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.

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.

Art for Ozu's Autumn Afternoon not up yet, but the three Ophuls covers are fucking gorgeous.

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