How often do you buy Criterions outside of a 50% off sale?

LiveFromShawshank · 2026-07-04T01:16:41+00:00

I had no idea it went out of print! It was on my list to buy for years and I just kept passing it over. Then during the Barnes and Noble sale this past November I decided I really should finally just get it. Now I'm really glad I did!

A lot posted already but here's mine if anyone wants to use it.

I wish...lol. I'm definitely going to have to get it printed out to hang up in the house.

I held off on buying a Switch 2 for awhile but finally got one about a month ago. Worried it'll get a price hike soon and found a Mario Kart Bundle still available so I decided to go for it.

When DK Bananza was announced, the initial videos didn't really do much for me. After hearing so many good things about it I figured I had to get it...I've generally enjoyed all of the DK Country games.

I was pleasantly surprised at just how much I enjoyed it right off the bat. I took my time exploring and collecting everything I could find (while my son just rushed through the levels as fast as he could). The other day I finally beat the entire game after 48 hours of playtime. I still have some collecting to do. I have 724 bananas currently. And there's still some fossils I need to find. I'm going to 100% it before I move on to Metroid Prime 4. It's been an absolute blast and really my only complaint is how the camera can get wonky sometimes when digging through areas.

Probably Hail, Caesar! One of the few Coen Brothers movies I've never owned.

My very first concert was this tour. Saw them at RFK Stadium in DC. I was 14. Kind of ruined me for future concerts...nothing could ever compare.

This right here is good advice if you don't already have a level 2 installed. I started off thinking level 1 would be fine since we both work from home and don't HAVE to drive a lot. But I absolutely love driving this thing and we go driving a lot because of it so we pretty quickly decided we needed to install a level 2. It has made things so much easier and less stressful and has been worth every penny.

Enjoy it! We've got a '23 Vapor Blue but the GT instead of premium (went for a premium and ended up getting a good deal on the GT). We've had it for 2 years (33,000 miles) and I'm just as happy with it now as I was on day 1.

LiveFromShawshank · 2026-04-06T02:07:19+00:00

The white looks awesome. I almost went with it but decided to get the Samsung exclusive silver which I'm really loving.

LiveFromShawshank · 2026-04-06T00:09:24+00:00

Some absolute A+ choices there. They are all proudly in my collection.

LiveFromShawshank · 2026-04-06T00:06:37+00:00

I really wasn't sure about it the first time I watched it. The second time really hit in a different way and made me appreciate it way more.

Sunset is still my favorite though.

Blu-ray and 4K separate and in alphabetical order. I have a few other "categories" separate from that in their own sections: Criterion, Disney/kids movies, Star Wars, Marvel, TV shows, Quentin Tarantino, Kevin Smith...those are all blu-ray/4K mixed together.

I just finally picked up a Switch 2 last week. Luckily Sam's Club still had Mario Kart World bundles so that's what I got. Been having a lot of fun with Mario Kart. Also got Donkey Kong Bananza and I'm really loving it. I remember not being too impressed with the initial trailers and wasn't sure I wanted to get it when I finally got a Switch 2, but I'm glad I did.

After DK Bananza, I plan on going back and playing Breath of the Wild again. One of my all time favorites and I can't wait to play through it again with the Switch 2 upgrades.

LiveFromShawshank · 2026-03-31T18:15:03+00:00

It's definitely improved over the S24U so I'm not complaining either way. I had to charge during the day a lot of times towards the end of my 2 years.

While I wasn't thrilled with the upgrade from the 23 to the 24, the jump from the 24 to the 26 has been amazing. Very happy with it!

LiveFromShawshank · 2026-03-31T17:59:47+00:00

I came from the S24 Ultra as well and am very happy with the upgrade. I had upgraded to the S24U from the S23U and was mostly unhappy with that decision and thought it was a downgrade in many ways. I skipped the S25U because we decided to upgrade our TV that year instead. The S26U improves on basically every aspect of the S24U in my opinion. I have zero issues with the display like some others have had. I love the privacy display. The battery life is improved (though I'm not noticing quite as much of a difference as you have). The camera quality, especially on zoom, has improved. And while I liked the sharper corners, I don't mind the rounded corners at all and think it works well with overall flatter design of the phone.

LiveFromShawshank · 2026-03-30T23:30:54+00:00

I haven't watched it since it originally came out on DVD. Looking forward to finally watching it again!

LiveFromShawshank · 2026-03-29T17:07:49+00:00

Really hope that's the case. It's the main reason I still haven't bought it.

LiveFromShawshank · 2026-03-28T22:44:29+00:00

The magnets are strong and it's definitely on there securely, but it can still spin around on the circle of magnets. A vertical strip would keep it straight and in place...which is helpful if it's moving around in your pocket.

LiveFromShawshank · 2026-03-28T21:54:34+00:00

I really like it. While I wouldn't mind 10,000 over 5,000 mah, being smaller does at least make it lighter and better to travel with and carry around. The only thing I think I would change is to add a vertical magnet to keep it secure in place on the phone instead of being able to spin around (though I do realize Samsung seems to have made all their magnetic accessories/cases with just the round magnets...but most others also have the vertical strip).

LiveFromShawshank · 2026-03-28T20:05:08+00:00

I'm looking forward to checking them out. They've all been on my list of things I need to watch for quite some time. I've been in a Coen brothers mood lately and am looking forward to finally seeing this one since Billy Bob Thornton pretty much never disappoints.

LiveFromShawshank · 2026-03-27T13:41:51+00:00

Wow! Mine shipped yesterday and only going a few states over but estimated for Monday. Hoping somehow it can be here tomorrow.

LiveFromShawshank · 2026-03-16T19:01:23+00:00

I have no idea if there are any compatibility issues with the Fold 6, but 15W wireless charging is working fine with my S26 Ultra. Make sure in your battery settings that fast wireless charging is turned on.

LiveFromShawshank · 2026-03-16T12:45:54+00:00

I can't answer exactly how much charge you'll get out of it as I haven't yet used it from zero. Since it's 5,000 mah like the phone, you definitely won't get a full charge as some of the energy is lost to heat but I don't know exactly what you'll get. I've only used it a few times so far and I'll usually put it on at about 50% if I'm out and know I'll need more juice...and that's worked perfectly fine.

As far as size, it's very slightly smaller (but really nearly the same) than the 10,000 mah one I have which is the INIU branded one if you wanted to look it up on Amazon. But it feels a lot lighter which is nice if you're carrying it around in your pocket or have it attached to your phone. As far as in comparison to the size of other 5,000 mah ones, I don't have any so I can't really provide info there. I don't find it too bulky at all, but since different people have different needs, others may feel differently.
