[@Idle_Wilder]

Thanks for this, really great and added to my watchlist/buylist. Would love to see a similar video for your Indicator, Arrow and Eureka collections. Unlike a lot of KZbin collectors you've actually watched a lot of these movies and it makes the videos even more interesting!

[@VanessaButtino]

That thumbnail is brilliant! (and so is your CC collection)

[@ElliotCoen]

Thanks Vanessa! I hope you’re doing well

[@danielsolano3520]

Greetings from Costa Rica. Thanks for showing your amazing collection, and the thing I appreciate the most, is that you have watched them, because it’s annoying watching a collection’s video and listening “I haven’t watched most of these”, because I have watched all of the movies I own, and read all the books I have. So this is a great way to find new movies to watch, because your insights about them were very informative and interesting. Thanks a lot!

[@JerrisonOracion]

This not only makes me like to watch more films in the collection. But also gave me more facts about the films that I saw already. Again, great video and I watched the entire thing.

[@babywithacrowbar]

Thanks so much for doing this Elliot. I really enjoyed it, particularly the fact that you took the time to say a few words about almost every single release. I’d love to see a similar video on your eureka or indicator collections. Cheers

[@zackjamesmitchell]

What an extraordinary collection. If I went to someone's house and saw that shelf, I'd never leave haha.

[@fv5681]

Masterpiece of a video Elliot almost as long as Yi Yi! 😆 Love how you spend a few minutes with each film. Criterion is getting lazy the digipak’s are MIA lately. You have an amazing collection. Thanks for sharing! Cheers.

Wow! What a collection it is so beautiful in all it's glory! I couldn't imagine owning all these wonderful films.Your collection took my breath away all 3 hours worth. I saw so many films I want to see and own. I live in Montana and obtaining these films in this region is scarse. I own Kwaidan, Onibaba and the Last temptation of Christ my first three! I love your content and your videos. Great job brother keep on keeping on. God bless my friend Elliot! Thank you so much for taking the time to do this.

Hi Cullin, thank you so much for the kind comment. It means a lot to me. Cheers for watching!

[@mattd501]

Heaven, I have my TV and limited series collection and I just realized the extraordinary Ingmar Bergman. Watched Fanny and Alexander last night and it is an astonishing realization of a life and how ones childhood sets the way for the choices we make going forward, Autumn Sonata another marvelous account of a dysfunctional family and done in the highest regard. Hope to start my Criterion collection soon, Richard Linklater is another remarkable film director/screenwriter in tune with our youth..Boyhood is basically my story give or take one or two scenes. Can't express my love for cinema and television enough. Thanks again!

[@lesterbronson2385]

Man, you have an absolutely phenomenal film collection. I just discovered Criterion collection at a time when my love for movies has been recently revived. Night of the living dead might be my first pickup. It releases on Halloween in case you’re unaware. I’ll be watching your video for the next couple of days. Thank you very much for sharing mate.

I have a focused collecting habit, as in I only collect Japanese cinema (for now) however, seeing that beautiful wall of spines makes me want to the entire collection. I find your videos very informative and satisfying. Although it must be said that not having them in spine or alphabetical order bothers me more than it should xD Thank you Elliot

I respect a focused collecting habit! And you can’t go wrong with Japanese cinema. I can think of many wonderful films from the country. Cheers for watching!

[@DamnFoolIdealisticCrusader]

I’ve been meaning to do a dvd and Blu-ray collection overview series. I always enjoy looser videos like this where the thoughts are honest and off the cuff. That’s partially why I do all of mine unscripted. Of course if it’s me talking three hours wouldn’t even get through the first shelf or two…😂

[@Shah-of-the-Shinebox]

Mine are arranged by spine. I have a mix of DVDs and Blu-rays (including some older editions on DVD). Only have two box sets. Great collection you got there!!!!

[@Jimmy1982Playlists]

I could spend thousands of dollars before I get to the end of this video lol... and I already own many of these. Criterion's packaging and artwork is so sublimely beautiful it hurts! 😍🥰😍🥰 Bless them just for what they've done to preserve and glorify the films of Fellini, Kurosawa, Bergman & Malick, alone! Praying for more Kubrick & PT Anderson from them. Can't wait for Lynch's _Lost Highway_ in October (superior to _Mulholland Dr._ - which _is_ slightly overrated, despite the fact I love it!). I've only just now been slowly upgrading my collection to blu-ray in recent years. How superior are these 4K releases, really?!?

[@poissonmechant]

I tend to find it suspicious when someone loves everything. There must be some movies in the Criterion collection that you don't like, or are ashamed to say you don't like.

[@ElliotCoen]

I find that suspicious too. There are folks with every film released by Criterion that say they like everything. I talk about quite a few in this video that I don’t like but I still keep around. The films I really do not like, I sell on or gift to someone. Thanks for watching!

[@superninjapirate19]

I think the “ashamed to say you don’t like” is a bit of a toxic trait of this hobby. The minute someone says they don’t like “insert film” they are ostracized. Not at all talking about Elliot here, just how some members of the community can be.

[@poissonmechant]

@@superninjapirate19 That's exactly what I meant but I think Elliot knows too well about it, given how cautious he is when he expresses even the tiniest reservations about some movies.

[@artirony410]

Yeah I don't get the mentality of buying every single release from a label

[@djstarsign]

@@superninjapirate19 the CC community is extremely pretentious and insufferable. I was part of an online group and they were so smug about their superiority and dismissiveness over everything from not having your collection in numerical order (an unforgivable sin), fake CC fan covers (again, the utter contempt they had for them was extreme) and talking about some of the duds in the collection. Then I got it. Their entire identity relied on collecting all of the titles, not the actual enjoyment of the films. It was the statement of how they came across to other CC fans. It’s the nerd equivalent of bros working out and showing off how much they can bench press to other bros. There was no joy in the community, just straight up judgement. Basically people you’d never want to hang out with in real life.

[@ericgeneric135]

I'm glad to see I'm not the only person with a large Criterion collection not in any particular order! I keep meaning to order it by spine number but I'm too lazy. During this recent Criterion sale I accidentally bought two blu-rays I already owned, so maybe there's something to be said for organization!

[@frankgetz6743]

WoW! So much to consume. Nice collection. I have so much to say but ill keep it short. Betty Blue is magnificent but I'd also watch Beineix's Diva as a double feature if you've not already seen it.

Nice collection, Elliot. You've got me beat by a factor of ten, easily. I would recommend you watch "My Life as a Dog" next. I am surprised that you don't have "Kes". It is a great movie; sad, but great. I, too, have "War and Peace" on my to-watch list.

[@nachoamb1]

Elliot you should do a new updated one

Good idea! I’ll start planning

The 4K Colors Trilogy has been rumored by The Discfather just last week. He didn’t have a release date, but yes it should be soon!

[@nachoamb1]

Great collection bro.

[@RyanDudziak]

Really enjoyed this! Things definitely started to speed up about halfway through though lol

[@ElliotCoen]

Haha yes, I must have noticed the time and thought to hurry it up a bit 😁

[@hugomorales632]

Thanks, Elliot. I would love to know what percentage of your films you have actually watched. I get the impression that many people are more into collecting than actually watching.

[@ElliotCoen]

Hi Hugo. I’m at somewhere between 90-95% watched on my collection, which is much better than it was at one point! It was as low as 50~% once - I’ve increased my watching since then and downsized by collection quite a bit. It’s much better now. Thanks for watching!

[@PINKmyyFLOYD]

Awesome collection. I am also annoyed by the size of the Citizen Kane box size

[@maciek8159]

You got quite the collection. I didn't watch the full video but I enjoyed what I saw. Do you have last year at Marienbad? That's the one I want but it's out of print.

[@ElliotCoen]

Hi Maciek! I do have Last Year at Marienbad but not on a Criterion disc. I have the Studiocanal Blu-ray. A great enigmatic film! Cheers

[@Lightraymuse]

Cheers Dude. Great effort and helpful.

[@Ticket4OneReview]

Credit to you for having the patience to go through all those films, and then edit all the footage together! This is the video I needed to unwind this weekend! Now...How about doing the same with Arrow Video? (JK...Unless you actually want to do it!)

[@SuperExige]

Thanks for sharing your remarkable collection Elliot. Whatever you do do not total what you have spent on these!!! I have a collection of some 418 4K titles and I made the mistake of hitting the stats button in the app that I use to log them, which also shows £££🤒🤒😂 The question I have for you is, if Criterion or another distributor were to rerelease any of these titles in 4K, would you replace them, or are you happy with the Blurays, as quiet a few are from 4K restorations to start with. Which begs the question is the film a viable future 4K release?? I’ve purchased the 4K Criterion releases to kickstart my Criterion collection, I know Most of the titles will probably not see the light of day in 4K even though they were restored in 4K for the Blu-ray releases…shame really.

[@URBONED]

You said take a shot every time you repeated a certain word... I figured it must be "criterion" and I wiped out real quick... I came to and there was still an hour of the video remaining! Phew, time flies!

Wow that's really nice. I also don't keep my collection in any specific order. Chronological by purchase if anything

[@Ax18NY]

Great collection, good man

[@1165mac]

I’ll dispute Do the Right Thing as Spike Lee’s best film. The 25th Hour is far more off-the-nose, commendably so. It’s themes are also more universal and politically indirect, again to its advantage. DTRT is a fine film, but its attitude wears thin on multiple viewings. The 25th Hour enlightens increasingly more on each viewing. Thanks for taking the time to do this video, Elliot. It’s great!

[@cinnefilo5547]

Hi bro, do you think it is important to keep the blue stickers with the directors' signatures that come in some Criterion?

[@Rubioproductions1996]

As a fellow Briton, I just have to inquire, do you use a specific retailer that sells Criteron, do you mainly purchase them online and awaiting shipping, I’m a collector myself but other than using HMV and Amazon, I struggle to acquire and locate a lot of Criterion movies.

[@scotthajney4127]

That was awesome to listen to while slaving away at work. 😃 I have one criterion disc that you didn't mention. The Wages of Fear. Any interest in picking up that title?

[@ElliotCoen]

Thanks for listening, Scott! Yes I love Clouzot and The Wages of Fear! I currently have the UK Blu-ray from BFI. I suspect it will get a 4K from Criterion in the near future, which I will upgrade to! Cheers

[@user-sh6in4of1u]

Hi Elliot. What is your preferred way of importing Criterion’s from across the pond, I recently had a good experience with Amazon US importing Raging Bull 4k and got it for a good price. 😀

I'm not a man who falls easily into the traps of envy.....but goddamn, I want your collection! You should send it to me! Now! 😁

[@minimundoguy]

Why don't you order them by release-date, Criterion is so kind to put them on the front cover. In the meantime you will get a great traing in movie history, it's great to see what films were released in the same year ...

[@samuelstephens6163]

That's how I organize mine too

I only own 5 or 6 Criterion releases (not entirely sure how many) but every one I own I absolutely love. Any more I should grab? (I own Silence Of The Lambs, Throne Of Blood, the Yojimbo Sanjuro set and the cases for House Cronos and The Devil's Backbone (saw TDB without working subtitles, fun)

[@TitanicHorseRacingLover]

Great collection. I can't help but notice that you don't have "A Night to Remember," (1958) directed by Roy Baker which is also in the Criterion Collection. Outstanding film, based up the Walter Lord book of the same name published in 1955 about the last hours of the RMS Titanic. I highly recommend it and in lots of respects, it is better than the Cameron film.

[@gavinotoole2864]

Hey Elliot. What are some Criterion releases that you wish had a 4k release? I hope grand budapest hotel gets a 4K release but not sure if it ever will.

Hi Elliot, I have recently starting watching your channel. Thank you for your great uploads. May I ask what Blu-ray player you use please and if you recommend it? (my current player just plays reg B). Also do you have any tips please on the best ways to purchase US Blu-rays from the UK without incurring additional charges? Thanks Elliot

[@danielwood7716]

hi do you replace the blu ray for 4k when their come out or keep both doubles like arrow been doing

Hi Daniel, yes I do replace. I don’t see any need to keep the same disc across formats. Cheers!

@@ElliotCoen I recently watched it for the first time and loved it. Immediately bought the Criterion and Studiocanal 4k. Although they have the same transfer, the Studiocanal one is slightly better due to better encoding

[@pierre_hawes]

When talking about The French New Wave, the first two directors that pop up are Truffaut and Godard. But what I find interesting is that the better FNW directors are the more underrated ones in my opinion. My personal favourites are Agnes Varda and Louis Malle.
