| | Posted: | | | | Dear Criterion Collection Newsletter subscriber,
We’ve got some exciting news for this fall, and we wanted you to hear it first.
Our first Blu-ray discs are coming! We’ve picked a little over a dozen titles from the collection for Blu-ray treatment, and we’ll begin rolling them out in October. These new editions will feature glorious high-definition picture and sound, all the supplemental content of the DVD releases, and they will be priced to match our standard-def editions.
Here’s what’s in the pipeline:
The Third Man
Bottle Rocket
Chungking Express
The Man Who Fell to Earth
The Last Emperor
El Norte
The 400 Blows
Gimme Shelter
The Complete Monterey Pop
Contempt
Walkabout
For All Mankind
The Wages of Fear
Alongside our DVD and Blu-ray box sets of The Last Emperor, we’ll also be putting out the theatrical version as a stand-alone release in both formats, priced at $39.95. Our Blu-ray release of Walkabout will be an all-new edition, featuring new supplements as well as a new transfer; we will also release an updated anamorphic DVD of Nicolas Roeg’s outback masterpiece at the same time.
As a special thank you to our newsletter subscribers, we’d like to offer you all $10 off any order of $60 or more placed on on criterion.com through Monday, May 26. Just use the code ---- and you’ll also qualify for free shipping.

| | Posted: | | | | Still a lot of open questions (will all future releases be day and date?, will there be spine numbering?, etc.), but great news for all of us Criterion collectors (especially the bit about pricing)! |

Only missing Brazil on that list That's the same exact movie I was looking for on that list!  The one I'm glad I never got around to picking up is The Third Man. | | | Get the CSVExport and Database Query plug-ins here.

The one I'm glad I never got around to picking up is The Third Man. I too would love a BluRay copy of Brazil! It was the first DVD I bought back in 99! pdf | | | Paul Francis
