Laut dem Criterion-Newsletter veröffentlicht das Label mit dem C ab Oktober 2008 auch Blu-Ray-Editionen ihrer Filme. Im Newslettertext konnte man auch etwas über die zu scheinenden Titel erfahren:
| Zitat: | We've got some exciting news for this fall, and we wanted you to hear it first.
Our first Blu-ray discs are coming! We've picked a little over a dozen titles from the collection for Blu-ray treatment, and we'll begin rolling them out in October. These new editions will feature glorious high-definition picture and sound, all the supplemental content of the DVD releases, and they will be priced to match our standard-def editions.
Here's what's in the pipeline:
The Third Man
Bottle Rocket
Chungking Express
The Man Who Fell to Earth
The Last Emperor
El Norte
The 400 Blows
Gimme Shelter
The Complete Monterey Pop
Contempt
Walkabout
For All Mankind
The Wages of Fear
Alongside our DVD and Blu-ray box sets of The Last Emperor, we'll also be putting out the theatrical version as a stand-alone release in both formats, priced at $39.95. Our Blu-ray release of Walkabout will be an all-new edition, featuring new supplements as well as a new transfer; we will also release an updated anamorphic DVD of Nicolas Roeg's outback masterpiece at the same time. |
Es gibt sogar schon ein Logo:

Heißt das jetzt, daß die Blu-rays genauso viel kosten werden, wie die DVDs?  |

| Der Gedanke, daß es "Le mepris" in einer höher aufgelösten Version zu kaufen gibt, lässt mich auf jedenfall gespannt weitere Blu-Ray News verfolgen... Außerdem bin ich gespannt, wie Criterion ihre neuen Scheiben designtechnisch vermarktet. Kann mir nicht vorstellen, daß die in den aufdringlichen Standard Blu-Ray kommen, denke aber schon, daß es eine neue Reihe wird. |

Seit der Nummer 306 “Le Samurai” der Criterion Collection besitzen die DVDs des New Yorker Labels ausschließlich den Regionalcode 1. Nur bei zuvor veröffentlichten DVDs gab es auch eine Reihe an codefreien Scheiben. Somit war abzusehen, daß die kommenden Criterion Blu-ray Discs ebenfalls mit einem Regionalcode ausgestattet werden. Und genau so ist es, wie nun im FAQ-Bereich auf der Label-WebSite zu erfahren ist:
| Zitat: | Are Criterion’s Blu-ray discs region-encoded?
Yes. Criterion is licensed to sell most of its editions only in North America. |
Weitere FAQ-Einträge rund um die Blu-ray:
| Zitat: | Why should I buy regular DVDs when I don’t know if Criterion will release a Blu-ray version six months from now?
If you love these films, keep buying DVDs. It is going to be quite a while before the Blu-ray marketplace can support many of the titles Criterion releases on DVD. For new releases, if we think a title has a shot of succeeding on Blu-ray, we aim to put out both editions at the same time, so you can make an informed choice. Where classics from our catalog are concerned, to give you a little extra comfort we’ll be offering a $20 Blu-ray upgrade program for customers who have already bought the equivalent edition on DVD.
You send us the movie disc from your DVD edition, and for $20 (plus tax and shipping) we’ll exchange it for the Blu-ray version, simple as that.
How will the Blu-ray upgrade program work?
Just mail your disc to:
The Criterion Collection
Attn: Jon Mulvaney
215 Park Avenue South, 5th Floor
New York, NY 10003
Be sure to include your U.S. or Canadian mailing address inside the package, as we cannot ship outside of North America. Please also include your e-mail address in case we need to contact you. You can send in your disc for exchange anytime, but we won’t be sending out the Blu-ray discs until their release dates.
You can pay the $20 plus tax (New York State only) and $5 shipping and handling by a check or money order made payable to the Criterion Collection. You can also pay by PayPal by making a payment to store@criterion.com (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover welcome). If your shipping address is in New York State, the total is $26.50 for the upgrade of one DVD. If your shipping address is in any other state or in Canada, the total is $25.
We’ll mail the Blu-ray disc in a sleeve, and you’ll be able to place the new disc in your existing packaging. This doesn’t give you the new Blu-ray packaging, but it does give you an option if you want the Blu-ray version but don’t want to buy the entire set again. This offer only applies to “like” editions. For example, you can return disc 1 of the rerelease of The Third Man but not the earlier, out-of-print edition.
If you have any questions about the Blu-ray upgrade offer please e-mail Jon Mulvaney at mulvaney@criterion.com. We reserve the right to change or discontinue this program at any time.
What is the Blu-ray packaging going to look like?
Our Blu-ray packaging will be similar to our DVD packaging, only in the smaller Blu-ray size. As with DVDs, we’ll use a range of paper and plastic packaging, and we’ll bring the same care and attention to the design. Where we’re upgrading an existing release, the design will match right down to the disc labels, so if you want to take advantage of the $20 Blu-ray upgrade program, your replacement disc will fit right into the design of your existing Criterion DVD edition. In the store, if you want to be sure you’re buying the Blu-ray edition and not the standard-def DVD version, you’ll know it by the smaller size and the blue Blu-ray sticker on the front.
Will Criterion’s Blu-ray discs have spine numbers?
Spine numbers on our Blu-ray discs will match the existing DVD editions. Our Blu-ray releases represent a significant upgrade when it comes to audiovisual quality, and many of our customers will want to take advantage of that, but we’re not starting over at number 1, and we’re not expecting our longstanding DVD collectors to do so either. Where content is concerned, we aren’t planning on publishing anything on our Blu-ray editions that won’t also be available on DVD. Whether you collect only DVDs or only Blu-ray discs or a mix, it’s all part of your Criterion collection—and they’ll all line up in spine-number order.
What will Criterion Blu-ray discs cost?
Criterion’s Blu-ray editions will generally be priced to match our DVDs. It makes sense to us: High-definition mastering and restoration has been a part of our DVD production standard for years. And for our customers who might be on the fence about whether to buy DVD or Blu-ray, we thought the best thing we could do was take price out of the equation. |
