ITT: Movies that need a Criterion release

The Witch
Lost In Translation
Dogtooth
Something by Takashi Ito

L'Ascension du Chevalier Noir

The assassination of Jesse James with the longer cut and some other extras.

A Tale Of Love And Darkness

More Kiarostami

>tfw the pie fight scene will never be released.

...

All of PTA's films except for Hard 8
The Grand Budapest Hotel
Upstream Color
Goodbye Lenin!

...

The DVD transfer sucks.

No movie needs a Criterion release because the question might as well be "what movie needs a horde of 12 year old redditors sucking its dick and horribly misinterpreting it whilst grouping it in with Tarantino and Nolan shit"

Inception
Gravity
Birdman
Raimi Spiderman (as a landmark as the true start of modern superhero movies)

What's special about Criterion?

Too soon

It's basically just a list of highly influential movies. Not all of them are spectacular, but most have influenced other films in some way.

>all these people wanting newer shit in criterion form

No fuck that. Give me more Tarkovsky and Herzog.

Projecting things too much, and a insanely fallacious equivalency.
>"Let's not do things because damn teenagers might like them in a 'wrong' way"

Here is one of the redditors I was talking about.

Plague Dogs
They already have Watership Down

Fuck off, retard

>Raimi Spiderman (as a landmark as the true start of modern superhero movies)

That would be either Batman Begins or Batman 89. But it doesn't warrant a Criterion release just by being that.

great transfers (usually) along with brand-new bonus features, a booklet and a case that's actually durable.

Kinda like Arrow Video except they tend to go for pretentious film student-core movies instead of cult and exploitation films.

Freddie Got Fingered

Repo Men (2010)

Around the World in 80 Days
Stalker

What are you even trying to say, autist?

there are tons of other distribution companies that also do/acquire good restorations of films (while not fucking up the colour grading, contrast and 'BLUE-ray' the shit out everything) and provide good extras
this dick riding needs to end

>you will never see the 4 hour cut before the studio execs made dominik cut it down

Thanks. I thought that they might have something to do with remastering old movies, cause I've got Seven Samurai and The Seventh Seal in like Blu-Ray quality or something, and they're both from Criterion.

No need to be so rude.

this. still waiting on a Stalker blu ray

I misquoted you, friendo :)

"Here is one of the redditors I was talking about."

Pretty Baby

2046
in the mood for love was great, needs more wong kar wai

And what the fuck are you on about, autist?

they uh release uh movies in like umm japanese and uh swedish and like uhhh if my favorite movie gets released in the company of ummm japanese and swedish films that uhhh means that um im really cultured so like yeah

>the witch
this is the most overrated garbage I've seen in years

I "am on about" you being one of the redditors I mentioned.

fucking this

What fucking redditors? Stop trying to fit your stupid boogeyman narrative to everything

>What fucking redditors?
the redditors that suck the cock of Criterion.

>le shitposting

This. The whole idea of Criteron Collection is a wet dream for the most prentenous of hipsters. Why do you need someone to literally spoonfeed you what you should consider classics?

>people still falling for the Criterion is a museum meme

They're a distribution company. They release whatever the fuck they want.

That's not what Criterion does. It's just your projecting. Stay obsessed with the 'prentenous hipsters' out to get you

True Stores

>25th hour

love that movie

>inb4 DUDE

I can't believe they're releasing a Russ Meyer film, I hope there are more to follow. I realize they can do what they want and they probably enjoy their status as licensors of "important" films, but it'd be nice to see more variety in the collection

>tfw your dream release is finally coming out next month

The Grand Budapest is gonna get a criterion like all of Wes' other films, just wait a couple of years, they'll announce it

Quite so. But in this case, if it weren't for Ebert, I doubt they would put it in.

more edward yang
more lee-chang dong

Since they're doing Pan's Labyrinth I want Crimson Peak too. Get Dame Darcy or Emily Carroll to do the art.

They're also releasing a John Waters film.

dong lol:^)

>That's not what Criterion does
That is literally what they do. go talk to anyone who's a self-proclaimed Criterion fan and their taste is the most boring cookie-cutter garbage ever. or just talk to yourself.

What exactly is so great about this shit?

see

:(

Definitely Burn! and ideally the english version
Takeshi Kitano's Dolls
Cockfighter
The If.../O Lucky Man/ Britannica Hospital trilogy
Fassbinder's Jailbait if only out of curiosity

Reminder that if you actually need DVD collections to tell you what's patrician and what's not then you are a fucking pleb.
One has to discover film by himself.

Its the best horror movie in at least a decade

Keep projecting, imbecile

no that would be inland empire

why do redditors love spouting this "projection" meme

Not a Waters fan but good on them for expanding their scope

>keep projecting
I hope you realize you were talking to two different people

Belladonna of Sadness
End of Evangelion
The Texas Chain Saw Massacre
The Lost World (1925)

Barber Shop 2
Soul Plane
Friday

Excellent list. But TTCSM hasn't really any shortness of extras with the existent blu-rays, and a 4k remaster too

you arn't wrong, I just really love TTCSM

My love for it is likewise giant. One of the few horror masterpieces, and top 5 in the genre at least

I'm seeing Belladonna in a theater tomorrow. I'm freaking pumped.
