Quarantined Monthly Guessing Thread

[rrenault]

For something out of left field, how about a Marco Ferreri Eclipse set at some point? Somehow I can’t see Criterion going UHD on Dillinger Is Dead and La Grande Bouffe (was released by Arrow but Janus have the rights to what’s presumably a newer master).

I’m also guessing some of those Carlos Saura films like Deprisa, Deprisa and La Prima Angelica will find their way into a Blu-ray Eclipse set at some point.

I hate the fact this is most likely true because I wanna see a 4K disc for Castaways of Turtle Island so badly.

lol. I could see this being realistic. I do think we will get a Fox license by a non living director just to keep us guessing how much of the vault opened....but I could also see Boy having some indispensable special feature like a Rayns commentary just to kick us in the teeth

Adieu Philippine solo release to close out a year that opened with The Mother and the Whore solo release feels comically fitting

Rozier screams Eclipse, no? Criterion is aware enough of their reputation to not just rescue one and leave the rest stranded on streaming. The Eustache precedent isn't much of one given the massive reputation of The Mother and the Whore.

I have a sneaky suspicion there will be no announcements today. I know it’s a bit early but I am getting that feeling.

They’re just waiting for Bressonaire’s picks

You kid but the fact that he hasn’t weighed in yet prob does mean they aren’t getting announced today because whatever list of releases he manages to see ahead of time isn’t finalized
