And (goddamnit) Godzilla is included! Which might be all I buy. My wallet thanks you, B&N. Sincerely.

Got the Koker trilogy from the flash sale, so I think I'm limiting myself to one or two random pickups/upgrades.

An Unmarried Woman is the best guess I've seen for that.
― WmC, Friday, 1 November 2019 16:41 (four years ago) link
Diva seems as plausible.

Diva is certainly plausible, but since it's the "Single Ladies" Bey, and Unmarried Woman has been OOP for several years.

anyone seen The Baker's Wife? worth checking out a screening?

Definitely worth seeing at a screening.

Apparently another reason Criterion released The Daytrippers is that Janus Films now holds the rights.

Love the cover art. Also, that cast.
OUT TODAY! @Criterion release of my first indie movie, THE DAYTRIPPERS, starring Anne Meara, @RealHopeDavis, @parkerposey, @LievSchreiber, Campbell Scott and @tucci_stanley pic.twitter.com/6zvUlmtLgF— greg mottola (@gregmottola) November 12, 2019

What, were Catherine Keener and James Le Gros busy simultaneously filming four other '90s indie flicks? (I kid, I kid)

is that Jaime on the cover art?
― Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Wednesday, 13 November 2019 19:01 (four years ago) link
my first thought was Adrian Tomine but i haven't checked.
― koogs, Wednesday, 13 November 2019 20:04 (four years ago) link
"New cover by R. Kikuo Johnson"

ah, the new yorker guy.
― Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Wednesday, 13 November 2019 20:07 (four years ago) link
as opposed to new yorker guy Jaime and new yorker guy Tomine :)

im gonna go out on a limb here and guess that.......... Mother Kusters' Goes to Heaven or Chinese Roulette will be announced on Friday.
― flappy bird, Wednesday, 13 November 2019 20:40 (four years ago) link
weirdly i don't think of Jaime as "the new yorker guy"fair play on tomine tho

FEBRUARY: Paris Is Burning; Three Fantastic Journeys By Karel Zemen; Roma (Cuaron); Teorema; and a Blu upgrade of Antonio Gaudi.
― a bevy of supermodels, musicians and Lena Dunham (C. Grisso/McCain), Friday, 15 November 2019 19:09 (four years ago) link
As noted by literally every person I follow on Twitter, Roma means that maybe Criterion will put out The Other Side of the Wind.

Sure, but there's clearly one Netflix title that's hanging out there like a big overripe Criterion target.
― temporarily embarrassed thousandaire (Eric H.), Friday, 15 November 2019 20:51 (four years ago) link
Yeah, but it's part of the game to speculate about what'll come out the floodgates after only one title from a new partner gets announced.

Second Run just announced they are releasing zeman’s ‘journey to the beginning of time’. And yes, he is lots of fun!

Second Run have done a great job on Zemen so far.

Come and See (1985) rumored, as Janus Films is releasing the restoration theatrically in 2020.

I didn't know The Cranes Are Flying wasn't already on BR, great movie, + really glad Bamboozled has finally been announced.

Both The Rock and Armageddon have Criterion spine numbers. Film restoration funding has to come from somewhere.
Still not a perplexing as Jellyfish Eyes.

Not to mention releasing every Wes Anderson movie. I like the guy but there's no way he has that many films that deserve to be in the collection, but as you said, it's what funds their more esoteric work, no complaints.
