- ctrlp 3y agoThe Criterion Collection has new films? What I see on their site is only classics. Is there a list of newer movies?
- OO000oo 3y agoI didn't realize the question was about newer films. My mistake.
- not_the_fda 3y agoYes, they have new films under "premieres" and "20th century cinema".

- mcpackieh 3y agoHaven't they been botching a lot of color grading recently? I've heard they've fallen for the "it's on bluray so it needs to be tinted blue" meme.
- OO000oo 3y agoWhat? That sounds so ridiculous, but I would not be a bit surprised.
- mst 3y agoModern film colour palettes is why when I saw That Dress breaking the internet my first thought as "you're both wrong, it's teal and orange" and -lolsob-
- OfSanguineFire 3y agoTwo recent Criterion releases that have got criticized for colour grading were the Wong Kar-Wai boxset, and the Kieślowski “Three Colours” 4K re-release. But the Wong Kar-Wai colour grading was the director’s own choice and simply handed over to Criterion, while crew on the Kieślowski pictures claim that the 4K re-release colour grading is more faithful to the original celluloid than the earlier Blu-Ray release.
- detourdog 3y agoThe problem with Criterion is that they have no idea how to catalog things or like everyone else they make a Byzantine system for good engagement/enragement. I believe media should be arranged by at least the following categories. Year Studio Director Genre Country of Origin After that they can do whatever they want. I hope I"m wrong but I can't do this with iTunes, Netflix, HBO whatever, Criterion, TCM. Criterion has newer films once they are released to the home market. Also Criterion just edited "The French Connection" to make it more appropriate for viewers.
