The Pierrot Le Fou poster is back up on the website.

Just a heads up - the discount code AFS will take 25% off of all titles, not just the Kurosawa set.

Thanks a lot for that. Didn't know it was around, and I just used it to take advantage of my blu-ray pre-orders.

Thanks! It takes 25% off everything in your cart, not just one item. This includes the already discounted OOP StudioCanal titles - making the upper tier titles about $20 and lower tier $14.

Edit: OOP Essential Arthouse titles are just over 8 bucks!

Thanks for the 25% off tip! To order with that discount for one DVD shipped to Canada plus handling charges is still a poor deal but I made a bulk order decreasing the average costs per DVD which works in my favor with the current exchange rates and compared to other online retailers.

thanks for the tip on that 25% off.
i backordered the orphic trilogy and added a mug on to get free shipping.

let's hope it goes through.

And another thanks for the tip. I had been waiting for a B&N/Amazon sale to buy some recently released titles, but I figure a 40% discount is good enough if the extra few % I'm paying goes directly to Criterion rather than a middleman.

Anyone know if it's multi-use? I'd like to do an order of preorders too...

It looks reusable; I ordered some Canal OOPs this morning, and I just tested the code on a preorder and it took the discount off in my cart.

Pretty sweet, domino -- you can get that Ang Lee preorder you've been jonesing for at like 23 bucks.

I used it on two separate pre-orders, domino. I think you'll be good for what you need.

How long will this code be active?

I was lying before, seeing Skeet Ulrich in hi-def was the real reason I upgraded

How did you get 40% off? You just mean off of list price?

Thanks Cash Flagg! I was able to get the Flamenco Trilogy, 2 EAH, and Port of Shadows for $50.

Yes, 40% off list. I know I could probably get them cheaper if I wait for another sale from B&N or Amazon, but I figure the extra few bucks is going to a good cause (namely, Criterion). (Now I'm also putting in a pre-order, which combined will get me 2/5 of the way toward the $50 gift certificate they give you if you spend $500.)

They must have someone working in the office on Sundays because my order from last nite has already shipped

Mine has also shipped...and I think I'll place another order. I had forgotten about a couple of Studio Canal titles, and now I think I should go ahead and get my Chantal Akerman on.

Amazon is out of Akerman Eclipse for a while, are they just out of stock?

Same here. Then again, it could mean they dropped it off in a box and once UPS/FedEx/whomever picks it up then the tracking number will show actual progress.

do they charge immediately for pre-orders or wait until they ship like other etailers?

the order says they don't charge until they're sent

they seem to have fixed the glitch. Code doesn't work for me.

ETA: It only takes 6% off?? that's SIX. bizarre. The remaining titles I wanted were three EHS...but I still can't bring myself to pay more than $10 for them - damned you B&N!! *shakes fist*

The code only seems to take off 6% now... Ugh!

And I had just spoken to the Barnes and Noble music manager tonight- who said he doesn't believe there's a chance for a 50% off sale this month- so I was going to order the rest of the OOP when I got back... Awful.
