How'd you get a $50 gift certificate from them?

Can someone explain to a complete noob what the criterion collection is all about ?. Where do they announce there new releases ,etc ?.

I don't know much about it myself but I guess they're having a 50% sale right now for all In Stock movies to celebrate their 75,000th Facebook fan. The sale will last 75,000 seconds and they're down to about 58,000 seconds left

Or you can beat up IronFingaz and get it for free.

Good plan!!!
I should have thought of that instead of waiting for B&N sales!!
By the way, all Criterion Blu-rays are now 50% off at the criterion website.

They're like the US version of Studio Canal, BFI and Masters Of Cinema. They release overseas films, silent films, cult films, art house movies and so on.

Since 1984, the Criterion Collection, a continuing series of important classic and contemporary films, has been dedicated to gathering the greatest films from around the world and publishing them in editions that offer the highest technical quality and award-winning, original supplements. Over the years, as we moved from laserdisc to DVD, Blu-ray disc, and online streaming, we’ve seen a lot of things change, but one thing has remained constant: our commitment to publishing the defining moments of cinema for a wider and wider audience. The foundation of the collection is the work of such masters of cinema as Renoir, Godard, Kurosawa, Cocteau, Fellini, Bergman, Tarkovsky, Hitchcock, Fuller, Lean, Kubrick, Lang, Sturges, Dreyer, Eisenstein, Ozu, Sirk, Buñuel, Powell and Pressburger. Each film is presented uncut, in its original aspect ratio, as its maker intended it to be seen. Every time we start work on a film, we track down the best available film elements in the world, use state-of-the-art telecine equipment and a select few colorists capable of meeting our rigorous standards, then take time during the film-to-video digital transfer to create the most pristine possible image and sound. Whenever possible, we work with directors and cinematographers to ensure that the look of our releases does justice to their intentions. Our supplements enable viewers to appreciate Criterion films in context, through audio commentaries by filmmakers and scholars, restored director’s cuts, deleted scenes, documentaries, shooting scripts, early shorts, and storyboards. To date, more than 150 filmmakers have made our library of Director Approved DVDs, Blu-ray discs, and laserdiscs the most significant archive of contemporary filmmaking available to the home viewer.

Next week they will announce what they will release in December and they do that around the 15th of each month.

Hi IronFingooz

hey do you happen to know what that one war film is that has the big eyeball on the cover? I think it's about a British soldier going through training and then being rushed off to battle where he learns about the horrors of war. I saw it one time at Borders but I forget the name of it.

Thanks in advance

Black Swan and my bf got Sups I and II.
