As long as there are casual film fans it won't.

Also : this is from TF1, who pretty much don't release catalogue BDs themselves anymore, and sadly, not many people are picking those up in France (and the ones who do don't release tons of discs per year). In the US, it would require Criterion upgrading a title from an Eclipse set, which IIRC still remains yet unheard of. That leaves the UK as the best shot, with either Arrow Academy or Eureka, and Japan with IVC (who release quite a hefty amount of newly restored French movies). This isn't much.

Except for the Early Bergman titles that ended up in the box set.tenia wrote: Tue Feb 25, 2020 5:02 pm In the US, it would require Criterion upgrading a title from an Eclipse set, which IIRC still remains yet unheard of.

Didn’t one of the Ozu early films end up as a Blu-Ray extra?

Re: Eclipse Series 44: Julien Duvivier in the Thirties
Oh right, I forgot about that. It's inside a boxset though, and not an individual release, so that probably was a different thought process for Criterion.The Pachyderminator wrote: Tue Feb 25, 2020 6:17 pmExcept for the Early Bergman titles that ended up in the box set.tenia wrote: Tue Feb 25, 2020 5:02 pmIn the US, it would require Criterion upgrading a title from an Eclipse set, which IIRC still remains yet unheard of.
This one however was more of an upscaled extra than a real upgrade (unlike the Bergmans).
This being written, some Eclipse movies WERE included elsewhere, so my bad.

Criterion is 100% going to upgrade Daisies at some point, bet money on it, so you’ll get a better example one of these days
