I'll only believe that it is happening once titles have been announced - and released, more to the point.

God damn my pessimism. :|

Even if it's just vague details your going to have spill the beans a little about what you've heard....otherwise this seems a tad too much like trolling. :)

Asphalt (if that really is your name), you're not going to turn this into a guessing game are you?

In fairness, he kinda laid out his evidence already. He has a friend working there. Of course he isn't going to give us his friend's Social Security Number, and it's unlikely that he'll feel comfortable divulging launch dates, titles, etc. We should probably take this heartening if minimal and unconfirmed report at face value and leave it at that for the time being....

It's a pity Shriek Show have already picked up Pete Walker's truly wonderful House of Mortal Sin - it would have been a great film for Eclipse to work on. I hope we'll see some more of their samurai actioners (Hideo Gosha's in particular) through the label too.

I'd say more but I don't want to get my friend in trouble. Confidentiality agreements and all that. Does Criterion monitor this forum?

I've no idea whether they still read this forum, but it's probably best to err on the side of caution.

I would imagine they do. Best to be cautious, as narshty says.

They're most likely about to bust down your friend's (and your) door for saying too much already. It's blaze of glory time now, asphalt.

Go big or go home!

GABBO! GABBO! GABBO!!!!!


Really, if there is no news or if it is too confidential for somebody to post, please don't post. Every time I see this thread bumped, I get my hopes up that el Topo is going to be released, to then suddenly see someone posting telling everybody that he knows something but can't say. :roll: :x

Wasn't any hope or speculation on El Topo pretty much squashed a few pages back, or elsewhere on this site? I mean, I'd love to see Criterion put it out, but it ain't gonna happen...

Ok, I'm gonna reveal my ignorance here: who/what is Gabbo? (other than the Stroheim film)?
