The DVD transfer sucks.
>>
>>71675785
No movie needs a Criterion release because the question might as well be "what movie needs a horde of 12 year old redditors sucking its dick and horribly misinterpreting it whilst grouping it in with Tarantino and Nolan shit"
>>
>>71675785
Inception
Gravity
Birdman
Raimi Spiderman (as a landmark as the true start of modern superhero movies)
>>
What's special about Criterion?

>>71676428
Too soon
>>71676470

>>71676479
It's basically just a list of highly influential movies. Not all of them are spectacular, but most have influenced other films in some way.
>>
>all these people wanting newer shit in criterion form

No fuck that. Give me more Tarkovsky and Herzog.
>>
>>71676428
Projecting things too much, and a insanely fallacious equivalency.

>Raimi Spiderman (as a landmark as the true start of modern superhero movies)

That would be either Batman Begins or Batman 89. But it doesn't warrant a Criterion release just by being that.
>>
>>71676479
great transfers (usually) along with brand-new bonus features, a booklet and a case that's actually durable.

Kinda like Arrow Video except they tend to go for pretentious film student-core movies instead of cult and exploitation films.

What are you even trying to say, autist?

there are tons of other distribution companies that also do/acquire good restorations of films (while not fucking up the colour grading, contrast and 'BLUE-ray' the shit out everything) and provide good extras
this dick riding needs to end

Thanks. I thought that they might have something to do with remastering old movies, cause I've got Seven Samurai and The Seventh Seal in like Blu-Ray quality or something, and they're both from Criterion.

No need to be so rude.

This. The whole idea of Criteron Collection is a wet dream for the most prentenous of hipsters. Why do you need someone to literally spoonfeed you what you should consider classics?
>>
>people still falling for the Criterion is a museum meme

They're a distribution company. They release whatever the fuck they want.
>>
>>71676870
That's not what Criterion does. It's just your projecting. Stay obsessed with the 'prentenous hipsters' out to get you

I can't believe they're releasing a Russ Meyer film, I hope there are more to follow. I realize they can do what they want and they probably enjoy their status as licensors of "important" films, but it'd be nice to see more variety in the collection

The Grand Budapest is gonna get a criterion like all of Wes' other films, just wait a couple of years, they'll announce it

>>71677036
Quite so. But in this case, if it weren't for Ebert, I doubt they would put it in.

Since they're doing Pan's Labyrinth I want Crimson Peak too. Get Dame Darcy or Emily Carroll to do the art.

That is literally what they do. go talk to anyone who's a self-proclaimed Criterion fan and their taste is the most boring cookie-cutter garbage ever. or just talk to yourself.

Definitely Burn! and ideally the english version

Cockfighter
The If.../O Lucky Man/ Britannica Hospital trilogy
Fassbinder's Jailbait if only out of curiosity

Reminder that if you actually need DVD collections to tell you what's patrician and what's not then you are a fucking pleb.
One has to discover film by himself.
