Criterion.



































Now I make no apologies for being a film geek, that I am. Over several years I've amassed a decent film collection between myself and my bro, I'm not about to get rid of them all again for the sake of Blu Ray as I did years ago when VHS was sent into the history books/charity shops, I look at my DVDs like people do with vinyl, it's a collection and one it's taken years to build up, most of my films are imports not bog standard three-ninety-nine jobbies from Tesco, though there are a few bargains in there too of course.
Part of this collection - which sits proudly on the top shelf, are the ones on the Criterion label, if you didn't know these are some of the best films you can get, some of the greatest classics, rare indie films and unseen gems are on this label, everything from the film transfer, loads of extras all down to the way it's packaged comes very considered each with their own serial number too.
There's loads more on there I'd like to get and loads still to be released I'm sure, yeah, it's nerdy but I started taking pics, so that's that. Come round, bring some popcorn...

  1. Looking at your posting on films, I was wondering if you'd actually post something on the CCs. I've got a quite a significant number of them and a few of those you have there I've got. Best way to know films. The other label being Eureka
