It should be noted that the two Fox titles are available in identical form on those four packs.

Fox's The Joan Collins Superstar Collection seems to be OOP as well.

I can wait until Criterion releases these.

Hope and Glory

I'd actually love to see Criterion release this along with:

The Butcher Boy
Europa, Europa
Prisoner Of The Mountains
Come and See

Maybe an 80s/90s Euro war themed box set?

I hate to break this to you, young man, but Criterion can't release everything and probably don't want to release most things.

They really should do Come and See though.

That's Kino who are planning on releasing a Blu. Hold your nose.

Quoting this here for those curious-- big news, indeed!

The first volume of these (with Tourneur's brilliant Canyon Passage) has been reissued as "4 Movie Marathon: Classic Western Collection".

Fair warning: some former Buena Vista titles have been popping back up on Amazon as "in stock," but with a 2012 release date and the small print warning that they're actually On Demand DVD-Rs. Great, like the OOP DVD Market wasn't hard enough to navigate right now

Really, someone giving legitimate love to The Butcher Boy? You do mean the Neil Jordan film correct?
I wouldn't mind Criterion doing their great and here's their first film for free and including Danny Boy.
But, alas I believe Butcher Boy is WB....

It seems that the Warners Paul Newman Collection with The Left Handed Gun and the Archer adaptations is gone.

This set includes Pocket Money, co-written by Criterion favorite Terrence Malick. The Pockey Money dvd seperate from this set is also OOP and there is no great picture quality improvement between the two or special features on either release. It may have a predictable plot and a climax that underwhelms after all the buildup, but there are some witty moments nonetheless.

Rocky and Bullwinkle (all sets)
Educating Rita

Universal's Creature From the Black Lagoon Legacy Collection

And another ton of MGM titles, including:
the Alamo (John Wayne version)
Bananas
Bio-Dome
Bound For Glory
Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia
Darling
Elmer Gantry
Great Balls of Fire
Hackers
Heart of Dixie
Hell in the Pacific
How to Murder Your Wife
the Indian Fighter
Junior Bonner
the Kentuckian
Kings Go Forth
Legend of the Lost
Lord Love a Duck
Mississippi Mermaid
Persona
the Pride and the Passion
Shadows and Fog
Since You Went Away
Space Camp
They Shoot Horses, Don't They?
What's New Pussycat?
Wild Orchid
Women in Love

Damn, hopefully Criterion can get some of these. The Women in Love DVD isn't even anamorphic... And it's not like Persona ever had a great transfer...

Bio-Dome is currently being prepped for a Criterion Blu-Ray release. Here are the specs so far:

STEPHEN BALDWIN-APPROVED SPECIAL EDITION:

New high-defintion digital transfer supervised by director of photography Phedon Papamichael, Jr., with 5.1 DTS-HD soundtrack on the Blu-Ray edition

Audio commentary featuring director Jason Bloom, star Pauly Shore, and producer Brad Krevoy

Pauly Shore's guest appearance on Futurama, with audio commentary by Shore

New interviews with actors/musicians Jack Black and Kyle Gass, who appeared for the first time as Tenacious D in the film

39 deleted scenes

Behind-the-scenes footage

Pauly Shore reads the reviews

Theatrical trailer and TV spots

PLUS: A booklet featuring rare production stills and an essay by Armond White

Man, I miss reading Armond White's reviews... I'm sure he liked Bio-Dome!

This is outrageous, I know for a fact that William Atherton would gladly have contributed an interview, commentary, or consented to have his home-made Bio-Dome graphic novel sequels included. I suggest we all email Criterion!!

Specs are still being updated. Criterion is currently negotiating for the release of Bloom's Director's Cut, which runs 3 hours and is all done in one take.

The fireplace scene with Belmondo and Deneuve in Mississippi Mermaid is a favorite of mine so it'd be great to see on a Criterion edition. I'd hope that they try to get Darling if they can.

They Shoot Horses, Don't They?, Elmer Gantry, and Lord Love a Duck are essentials for the upcoming 60s project-- I better not be the only one voting for TSHDT again this round!
