Criterion Haul: Barnes & Noble 50% Off Sale!! (Blu Ray Haul) Round 2

[@xepfeon]

Watching this is great, it reminds me of when my friends an i would go filmshopping and recommending all kinds of fantastic movies to eachother

[@geddyleesquire]

Persona is my favorite film. And seeing it in the "maybe" list is like a slap to the face lol Edit: YOU PUT BLUE VELVET BACK?!!

[@TheMisfitPond]

Would you recommend it as my first Bergman film? I’m definitely getting it on the last and final haul. And yea... Dont Look Now beat it out. Im so sorry. That’s also one I have to get next time no excuses

[@geddyleesquire]

@@TheMisfitPond It was my first Bergman film. And I loved it the first time. It's not really super experimental, but it can't be a little bit confusing (kinda Lynchean imo, you can see how David Lynch was inspired by this to make Mulholland Drive) Also, Eraserhead was my first Lynch film, and I'm a super Lynch fan now. So Persona being my first Bergman film wasn't a problem for me.

[@TheMisfitPond]

Alonso Rojas interesting comparison to Lynch. I have to pick it up next time. How do you feel about his film Wld Strawberries? A patron told me that would be the best to start with

[@geddyleesquire]

@@TheMisfitPond Haven't seen it bro. Sorry :(

[@stimpy2695]

@@TheMisfitPond I'm pretty sure Wild Strawberries and The Virgin Spring are the 2 best starting points when it comes to Bergman. From there I would move onto Persona & Hour of the Wolf and so on.

[@bbeaup]

Ive never seen a crite video with such a large stack!

[@CineM1chael]

Great hauls! You guys are making me rethink what I got hahaha!

[@TheMisfitPond]

Thanks dude!! Glad you enjoyed it lol gonna hopefully make one more before the sale ends

[@CineM1chael]

@@TheMisfitPond get blood simple!!

[@TheMisfitPond]

Cinephilia 2.0 the thin red line, blood simple, persona and blue velvet are my must haves next haul

[@kevinswails615]

perry I love your reaction when carlos brought you punch drunk love

[@ralpholivares842]

Michael Powell the red shoes is a great movie 🎥 I recommend it. Plus the tin drum

[@midlevelmedia]

Awesome haul guys! I've grabbed way too many Criterions this month! Nice video and just subbed!

[@TheMisfitPond]

MidLevelMedia thank you so much! Couldn’t be happier that you enjoyed the video and subbed! I’ve an Irreversible analysis and 4 reviews coming out this week!

[@midlevelmedia]

@@TheMisfitPond Awesome! I really need to get into more Gaspar Noe. All I've seen is "Climax" and I loved it!

[@TheMisfitPond]

MidLevelMedia ah man Climax is the best Now film imo. But Irreversible is the most traumatizing due to its prolonged scene of sexual violence. But it’s still a brilliantly directed film with some of the most wild camera work I’ve ever seen.

[@Shah-of-the-Shinebox]

4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days is amazing, Breaking the Waves however disturbed me.

[@BirdofKino]

If Perry and Carlos ever get divorced, will Gen be the divorce lawyer?

[@Gregtilldeath]

Amazing video 🔥🔥🔥

[@bbattersby2345]

I'm so glad you ended up getting The New World. Straight up masterpiece! Some other films I noticed in the background that I totally recommend if you haven't seen The Red Shoes, Dressed to Kill and Young Girls of Rochefort are all fantastic!

[@TheMisfitPond]

I’m so excited to watch The New World. Especially now since you think so highly of it. And thanks for the recommendations. I’ve never heard of any of those !

[@modecom]

LOVE these haul videos.

[@TheMisfitPond]

modecom thanks dude! I love that you love them! Hopefully got one more coming

[@Alvaro-fh5dd]

Have you heard of Revanche 10:55? Its a really good film, if you liked 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days i would totally recommend it to you. Its a slow pace drama with a phenomenal cinematography. Its a very haunting movie

[@jesusperez7108]

I looked up Revanche. It sounds really interesting. I'm adding it to my watchlist.

[@TheMisfitPond]

I have not seen it but it sounds right up my alley! I’ll make sure to keep an eye out on it. Maybe put it on a patron poll

[@andrearroyo1648]

Chaplin needs to get some love lol

[@jesusperez7108]

I have been meaning to watch some Chaplin films, but right now I'm working on a Michael Haneke film ranking and then I'm going to binge Ingmar Bergman films.

[@andrearroyo1648]

Jesus Perez Cool. “Modern Times” and “City Lights” are his best silent films. “Limelight” and “Monsieur Verdoux” are his best talkies.

[@samcohen99]

Yooo Persona is one of my 10 favorite films ever. Tis Lit 🔥👌

[@TheMisfitPond]

Dude I’m sure it is Lit! I have to check it out soon !

[@kevinswails615]

perry if you got the breakfast club in taking it !! you know that is like my favorite movie wvwr

[@jesusperez7108]

I didn't want to get Breakfast Club, because I shop criterion collection for indie and arthouse classics not classic films that I have seen a million times.

[@TheMisfitPond]

Haha i still need to see the breakfast club! It’s one of those classic films I still really need to see!

[@SpyKiFTW]

I wish they had all these Criterions in the UK. we have such a tiny selection.

[@moomcmoosson1992]

Yeah, although Arrow Academy released a good bit of those titles. Mostly 30s-60s classics though.

[@TheMisfitPond]

That’s a bummer. I thought they had UK versions or something. Yea at least Arrow is promising. I want that Jodorowsky set.

[@moomcmoosson1992]

@@TheMisfitPond Oh, Criterion has released lots of titles in the UK but not as many titles as they've released in the US. Mostly because they've been released by other UK labels like Arrow Academy and BFI. Lots of french and other european cinema that has american Criterion releases are being released by Studiocanal in Europe.

[@SpyKiFTW]

@@TheMisfitPond me too, I wish it had Santa Sangre in there though! Arrow has a lot of great stuff

[@TheMisfitPond]

Jakob Reidy oh I know I hate that it doesn’t have Santa Sangre. That’s really the only thing keeping me from buying it.

[@BirdofKino]

Ah, the wonder twins

[@mattyslicks]

Does perry have a channel?

[@jesusperez7108]

No, but I want to start my own channel one day. In the meantime I'm happy to keep appearing on Carlos's channel and supporting him anyway I can.

[@johnthevoice6270]

Carlos, you are among the non Romanians who love the films of Cristian Mungiu. They are not highly regarded in Romania as they are outside of it.

[@TheMisfitPond]

I’m truly honored. I’ve only seen 4 months 3 weeks and 2 days but just from that film alone, I know he has great things in store. Can’t wait to watch Beyond the Hills and Graduation.

[@violenciariba666]

I also really love his works and Graduation was my first romanian film that i ever saw and was in complete awe of how awseome it was.

[@SupraWes]

IF you want a good Terrence Malick film get the Thin Red Line. I did not like The New World when I saw it in the theater but I need to revisit it.

[@TheMisfitPond]

SupraWes at the very end of the video I revealed I actually picked it up on a preorder lol and Perry did the same for Stalker. I’m so excited to watch the thin red line

[@TheMisfitPond]

I just realized you commented on the second haul lol yea I bought the new world in this one. But in the third haul I got The Thin Red Line

[@violenciariba666]

Hi man!! Please make a review of Cinema Paradiso. If you do, make sure is the 2 hours cut, cause the director's and extended cut do harm the film

[@TheMisfitPond]

I’ve heard of that film for so long. I’ll definitely put it on a poll soon

[@MrWafflez26]

ah my favorite barnes n noble employees back at it again

[@cedriccinema4822]

Is you ever find Crash by David Cronenberg, get it. Also review it.

[@Tim_Raths]

That doesn't come out until January.

[@stimpy2695]

@@Tim_Raths Crash will be out December 1st, a week from this Tuesday. I'm hoping they extend the sale as it's one of my most anticipated releases of the year. Either way I'll be grabbing it, it's one of Cronenberg's absolute best.

[@Tim_Raths]

@@stimpy2695 There is probably going to be another flash sale in February, could get it then.

[@stimpy2695]

@@Tim_Raths That's true, even though I still own that old New Line DVD, I may pick up the Crash Criterion in December. I'm thinking of getting the Arrow UHD too, they just added more features, not sure though. Most Criterion films I wait to get during the sale but there are a few I get day 1. Comfort of Strangers was the last title I bought on release day, Paul Schrader is one of the most underrated Directors ever and that's one of his best and one of the best Blu-ray releases this yr imho. I'm hoping Light Sleeper and Affliction come out on Blu-ray soon.

[@michaelcaringi5583]

Perry, just so you know the '97 Funny Games and the '07 one are shot-for-shot the same movie - just different languages. Trust me, the original is perfection. Get it next time, you've put it down twice now.

[@jesusperez7108]

I have seen the 97 version of Funny Games. I love the 97 version, but I strongly prefer the remake of Funny Games. I just like the American actors in those roles more.

[@jesusperez7108]

I will buy the 97 Funny Games next time anyway.

[@jesusperez7108]

@Randy White I completely disagree, but you're entitled to your opinion.

[@SlaughterCinema1]

This is my first time watching one of your videos. I don't know why I bothered me that your friend picked up $1,000 worth of movies when he had $150 budget. That was definitely a good Barnes & Noble though mine don't have anywhere near this selection

[@TheMisfitPond]

SlaughterCinema1 haha I think he just likes to hold them lol but I think he also likes to make final decisions. There’s a lot of maybes he wants to sort out and make final decisions at the end of the haul. We have to drive an hour out just to find a decent B&N.

[@_BASIC_INSTINCT]

11:31 put it on a plate son you'll enjoy it more

[@_BASIC_INSTINCT]

for xmas get him the autobio X Films: True Confessions of a Radical Filmmaker

[@ethanedwards7557]

Why has no one told Perry about shopping baskets?

[@aidanpedroza8723]

he sounds literally exactly like Alex leyba

[@jesusperez7108]

I just looked up Alex Leyba. I do sound just like him.

[@Empty_Robot]

11:46 hey, election is a fun cult comedy movie.

[@jesusperez7108]

I watched it. I thought it was fine. 6/10. Granted I'm not the biggest fan of Reese Witherspoon or Matthew Broderick.

[@divyenjoshi1168]

Yeah haha DVD's look so bad. I have a top end 4K Blu-ray player and it makes them look so much better due to high precision upscaling but even then I wish they would go away so 4Ks and regular Blu-rays go down in price.

[@TheMisfitPond]

Dude same here. I know some people say shaming DVDs is class shaming but it’s not really that much more expensive to buy a Blu ray. And cheap blu ray players exist so lol

[@divyenjoshi1168]

@@TheMisfitPond Yeah they're almost the same price for regular Blu-Rays for a lot of films. Obviously things like out of print and Criterions are always more expensive. But DVDs in 2020 with the technology we have now it's just ridiculous considering the quality of TV's now.

[@kimiwari]

🤣🤣🤣🤣brahhhh

[@fizzlebomber674]

blood simple is far from great. I wouldnt use the word underrated. It's brutal to sit through, probably their only bad film. why buy a $20 criterion without having even seen the film? watch the film first, then buy.

[@jesusperez7108]

Yeah. I'm going to watch Blood Simple eventually. All the criterion films I bought are films I have seen. I don't want to blind buy.

[@davel2858]

Man, I was impressed with your boy but he put everything back ....lol and walked out with two cheap ass . Lol

[@jesusperez7108]

I bought 9 criterion films. After taxes it was like 200 hundred dollars. How am I cheap ass? In the previous video I bought 15 criterion films.
