Have watched hundreds of movies in a theater but fallen asleep only once …. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire was the movie. Utterly boring and stupid movie.

Criterion too pricey for you? over 3 years ago

Once a while there are deals at Deepdiscount, DVDPlanet, Amazon for Criterion releases. I own more tha 100 Crtirerion titles and never paid more than $21-22 for a title which has $40 MRP and for the one having $30 MRP, i usually pay not more than $17-18 . Just need to be patient and on the lookout for deals.

Worst Criterion DVDs over 3 years ago

I’m not sure but i think i did not like the story of Brazil that much. In the same genre, compare it with Blade Runner. Well…two separate ends of the spectrum. Yet to see a better sci-fi flick than Blade Runner. Fifth Element and Aliens were good too.

Anybody seen films from India? over 3 years ago

I’m from India and i must say i’m really impressed with the knowledge of you guys about Indian cinema. It’s bit unfortunate that Indian movies are not popular as much as Japanese/French titles. I feel this is mainly due to the fact that no major studio has released Indian titles abroad and given the respect that they deserve. I keep hearing that Criterion is in talks to buy the copyrights for Satyajit Ray’s movies but there has been no news since. I eagerly await for that day !

The Auteurs' Fake Criterion Covers about 3 years ago

I’m really impressed by some of the cover designs. Is there are a chance that these movies and even cover designs will make it to the Criterion release?

Sincere Thanks from an Indian Sikh and a true Punjabi almost 3 years ago

Burrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrraaaaaaaaaaaaah !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can’t tell you how much thankful i am Criterion for releasing this title. This is the one of the best movies to come out of India at a World Cinema level. It highlights Delhi and Punjabi culture with which i can relate my own identity.

Please do justice with this movie and make it the best possible transfer out there. Waiting eagerly for October 13th.

Thank You
