So I keep seeing the first batch of Criterion Blu-Rays at the store, and I'm pretty tempted to give them a try to further feed the beasts (speakers, HUNGRY!). Anyone picked up any of them yet? I'm wondering how their transfers and mixes stack up to other BRDs.

So far it looks there's The Third Man, Bottle Rocket, The Man Who Fell to Earth and Chungking Express.

I bought Bottle Rocket, but I haven't watched it yet, except for the first minute or so. I wanted to wait to make some friends watch it with me.

So we're going to have to wait until you "make some friends?"

Yeah, even imaginary friends are hard to conjure.

Maybe we could chip in and get you a new air pump?

We'll help get your "friends" inflated, so we can hurry along the impressions.

Hey I'm not here to judge. You can watch Bottle Rocket with your goat if you like.

I think the really critical question is why Fred wants pics of CV and his inflatable friends.

How are friends coming? I might get back from my trip and buy them myself before this happens!

I'll probably get around to watching it this weekend, friends or not. I have to at least wait until I get my replacement amp.

Time to pay the fiddler, CV! What's the verdict on Criterion on BRD so far? \:\)

Oh, I didn't actually watch Bottle Rocket, since I'm waiting for my replacement amplifier.
