These were with Sony previously, so I wonder if their rights to the Heisei-era films have lapsed as well.
Sony's rights to
Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah (1991) and
Godzilla vs. Mothra (1992) expired in 2019 and their rights to
Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla II(1993),
Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla (1994), and
Godzilla vs. Destoroyah (1995) expire(d) this year.

Of course my copy of the Second Run blu arrived today. At least this means it'll be easier for friends and family to watch it when the home video release eventually happens here.

It’s like a new announcement every other day. Who is showing all these? Who is going to see all these? How are all these going to be distributed for home viewing?
Not my business, I suppose!

I would think the Wender's will be a Criterion (not a Janus Contemporaries) release due to the 3D and 6k resolution. Has there been a UHD of a 3D releases of any kind?

Is 3D compatible with the UHD spec? I think the closest we've gotten are dual 2D UHD/3D Blu-ray packages like for
Alita: Battle Angel and
Hugo

Awesome. Really looking forward to this one!
The
L'amour fou news is great too – dare we dream of a Criterion release?

I'm hoping that Janus/Sideshow pick up the new Erice film as well. Insane that it hasn't been scooped up yet.

According to the listing for the retrospective being held at Lincoln Center, Janus have picked up Edward Yang's A Confucian Confusion and Mahjong!!!! I was hoping they would have also picked up Terrorizers but this is still very exciting!

It's great news that they've got Mahjong and A Confucian Confusion. I wonder what the deal is with rights to The Terrorizers as it seems unlikely that they'd pass over it.

It’s distributed already in the US by another company.

Roscoe is hooting and hollering as we speak. In all seriousness though this is great news. I can't wait to see what Criterion does with this.
