Re: Quarantined Monthly Guessing Thread
Peeping Tom is with Lionsgate, so unless there's been something solid to the contrary I wouldn't assume it's in the pipeline. But of the actual P&P collaborations there are certainly enough that Criterion either already has or don't seem to be spoken for in the U.S.bottlesofsmoke wrote: ↑Tue Jul 13, 2021 7:38 pmMy guess is a Powell and Pressburger boxset, given they still have Thief of Bagdad, 49th Parallel, A Canterbury Tale, I Know Where I’m Going, The Small Back Room, Tales of Hoffman, and Peeping Tom to upgrade, plus whatever else they can get their hands on.
Why stop here? If they really want to launch their UHD line with a bang, they should release this alongside Festen. Maybe get Unknown Pleasures out there as well.

Re: Quarantined Monthly Guessing Thread
An upgrade of a sci-fi, supernatural, or horror film, like Onibaba or The Devil and Daniel Webster
A title new to Criterion but also in the sci-fi, supernatural, or horror genre; I won’t pick because I’m hopeless with titles in those genres
The Sea Hawk (When was the last Warner’s Golden Age title with one of their big stars? I think it was Bette Davis in Now, Voyager two years ago. Feels like something’s due, and Flynn is not yet in the collection.)
Nine Queens
Devi

Given that Warner Archive just released The Sea Hawk on Blu in December 2018, I’d be surprised.Bressonaire wrote: ↑Wed Jul 14, 2021 11:24 amAn upgrade of a sci-fi, supernatural, or horror film, like Onibaba or The Devil and Daniel Webster

OTOH, given that I just finally acquired an inexpensive used DVD of the otherwise-unavailable and fabulously expensive Nine Queens, I wouldn’t be surprised at all.

Re: Quarantined Monthly Guessing Thread
Would they throw Thief of Bagdad and Peeping Tom into a P&P boxset? That seems clumsy to me. That said, either way I'd buy it just for all the upgrades.bottlesofsmoke wrote: ↑Tue Jul 13, 2021 7:38 pmMy guess is a Powell and Pressburger boxset, given they still have Thief of Bagdad, 49th Parallel, A Canterbury Tale, I Know Where I’m Going, The Small Back Room, Tales of Hoffman, and Peeping Tom to upgrade, plus whatever else they can get their hands on. It seems like several of these have been rumored to be getting upgraded, so why not do them all at once?

Re: Quarantined Monthly Guessing Thread
Atlanics fits into the supernatural genre. It’s been confirmed as coming and it’s new to Criterion.

Re: Quarantined Monthly Guessing Thread
I agree, especially in the case Thief of Bagdad, but it doesn't seem impossible, so it seemed worth mentioning. I could see them doing non-chronological sequencing, like the Bergman and Varda sets, in order to tell the story of their collaboration by theme or subject (war films, musicals), and have a section of "Powell without Pressburger" or something like that.willoneill wrote: ↑Wed Jul 14, 2021 12:27 pmWould they throw Thief of Bagdad and Peeping Tom into a P&P boxset?

Re: Quarantined Monthly Guessing Thread
My monthly PANDORA'S BOX wish goes right here.
UHDs of CITIZEN KANE etc. would be nice, but I suspect they'd be released in November, which as I recall is usually their month for Big Releases.
