That's absurd, Criterion would never produce any more than 399 hours of bonus features.

Cape Fear ('62) / Cape Fear ('91)
Deliverance
The English Patient
I Shot Any Warhol

Parasite (upgrade)
Wild at Heart

Plus, a large special edition box set for K-Pop Demon Hunters that does not get a spine number. Just a wild guess.

I can't find the post now so maybe I imagined it, but I thought I saw someone from Vinegar Syndrome saying they weren't able to get The Devils because Criterion had dibs if WB ever let it loose.

Is there an outside chance The Devils actually gets released on UHD by WB themselves under, say, the WAC banner, considering they're already making a show of the theatrical revival release?

The folks over at Blu-ray.com forum are convinced it’s coming from Warner and that George Feltenstein is playing a roll in it’s release

Its the extended cut of Children of the Corn 4 that pushes it over the 399 mark.

Going off of this hint image, my guesses are:
Jaws (1975)
Batman (1989)
Rascal (1969)

Not quite sure of the reliablity of that image as there is a over of Tim Buton's Dumbo in there as well..

Considering they got the Warner Kubrick titles, I wouldn't be surprised if they could get Batman as well.

Is the cat A Cat In Paris?

On closer inspection there's something else in front, so it's not a cat (on the shelf). Gremlins & Deadpool are the others on the bottom of the frame.

It seems Criterion is just reposting a cartoon from The New Yorker, and not something they produced themselves? I think I also see an Iron Man movie and I have no idea if this is The New Yorker's humor going over my head or just lazily barely following through on an idea ??

If the repost is a clue from Criterion, it’s pretty obviously for a Grey Gardens re-issue in 4K UHD. But mostly I think they’re just trying to coattail on Jimothy’s current mojo.

(It’s pretty obvious that the New Yorker cartoonist has no idea what’s in the Criterion Closet.)

Naomi Watts does give the 2nd best performance in the COTC franchise in COTC 4: The Gathering.
