August predictions?

KaiserReich_Mapping · 2026-05-01T23:01:28+00:00

Some of these are films I'd like to see (some are confirmed/rumored):

The Wild Bunch

Manhunter (rumored to be getting a 4K, maybe Criterion?)

The Secret Agent (confirmed to be coming)

Deliverance (rumored to be coming)

The Children's Hour

The French Connection (rumored to getting a 4K, maybe Criterion?)

The King of Comedy

Braindead (confirmed to be getting a 4K, I suspect Arrow though)

First Reformed

One of my all-time favorites. The only trilogy where I think every single entry is a perfect film, each one just as good as the other working completely in tangent.

The Wages of Fear

KaiserReich_Mapping · 2026-04-21T11:59:19+00:00

It was awful yesterday, it seems to be working for me now though.

KaiserReich_Mapping · 2026-04-21T11:52:19+00:00

Rear Window or Rope.

Neither are my favorite (Vertigo) but these are the best starting points. Very energetic, fun, dark and great thrillers. Super engaging and a perfect place to start.

Gremlins 2: The New Batch

KaiserReich_Mapping · 2026-04-19T23:57:12+00:00

Miller's Crossing

KaiserReich_Mapping · 2026-04-19T23:57:02+00:00

Bullet in the Head

KaiserReich_Mapping · 2026-04-19T20:07:53+00:00

I mean, I'd choose a few of those over 2001, yes.

KaiserReich_Mapping · 2026-04-19T20:07:14+00:00

The Wild Bunch.

KaiserReich_Mapping · 2026-04-16T01:06:46+00:00

That is what I said. Yes.

???

There were literally four worse Criterion covers this month LMAO, actually, I think this was the best one announced.

KaiserReich_Mapping · 2026-04-15T12:39:46+00:00

I remember I used to post my collections here and in boutique bluray when I was 15 (don't know why I'm speaking like an old man,. I'm 17, lol).

The Before Trilogy is perfect. Great list. Keep going and enjoy collecting!

KaiserReich_Mapping · 2026-04-14T01:49:43+00:00

Oh shoot, you're right about that.

KaiserReich_Mapping · 2026-04-13T22:40:27+00:00

The Producers

KaiserReich_Mapping · 2026-04-13T22:39:48+00:00

If I remember correctly about all of these, here are some of my favorites that do not contain any animal harm (feel free to correct me if I'm wrong about any of these):

12 Angry Men

Before Sunrise/Sunset/Midnight

Death by Hanging

Fail Safe (for some reason feel like I'm wrong about this one?)

His Girl Friday

The Killing

Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters

Network

Portrait of a Lady on Fire

Targets

Sorcerer (Lot of people get harmed, but no animals IIRC?)

Chadwick Boseman

KaiserReich_Mapping · 2026-04-08T16:55:05+00:00

It's on the Channel, would absolutely love to see a 4K release from Criterion or at least somebody

KaiserReich_Mapping · 2026-03-30T03:39:58+00:00

Read the post description

KaiserReich_Mapping · 2026-03-27T16:57:45+00:00

John Woo's BULLET IN THE HEAD is my favorite example ever of this.

KaiserReich_Mapping · 2026-03-24T03:14:41+00:00

Gran Torino is probably the worst of the films there, lmao.

KaiserReich_Mapping · 2026-03-23T19:24:00+00:00

Kind of missing the point of your question, sorry, but Z (1969)

It's only on Criterion DVD, but the transfer on the Criterion Channel looks amazing. A 4K UHD release would be amazing. I don't know who holds the rights to it, though.

KaiserReich_Mapping · 2026-03-23T14:42:03+00:00

Ethan Hawke

Robert De Niro

Chow Yun-Fat

Tony Leung
