Just wanted to chime in again and say thank you for your work!

I hadn't noticed the texture on the Green for Danger cover on the Criterion site. It makes the already stand-out cover all the more interesting. As in the past, you've done some great work on this and the other forthcoming titles, hammock. Both my desktop and I thank you.

While going through some of our library's older DVDs, I came across a few older Criterion catalog inserts. I found two from around 2000-2001 (it announces The Night Porter and The Passion of Joan of Arc as coming soon as well as Tales of Hoffmann... oops!). The other I found is the 2002 catalog that infamously lists Ivan's Childhood and Howard's End as coming soon. If I keep looking, I just may find the holy grail of Criterion catalogs, the one that announced Cousin, Cousine, Shanghai Express and all that.

Anyway, to whom should I send these so they can get uploaded to the Criterion Dungeon? PM me an address.

I am not sure that it is the Holy Grail of Criterion catalogues, but I have several copies of a very luxurious booklet with details of all releases up to no. 103 including specs on Ivan's Childhood; Cousin, Cousine; and Cocktail Molotov. I will be happy to donate to the dungeon of course. Send me PM.

Is the Misc. section down?

Ashirg · #381 Post by **Ashirg** » Fri Jan 05, 2007 3:28 am

it's never been up

Thanks guys!

We have a lot of stuff ready for the misch section and above catalogues would be a fine add so please mail it to me (misch@criteriondungeon) remember to add .com - thanks!

I guess The Sonic Death Monkey will have to answer about when he expects the section to go online as he is the one setting it up. He returns from holiday this weekend if I remember correctly.

Looking forward to finally putting this section up!

Yeah, I've just been hella busy, AND on vacation.

I'll whip something up as soon as I can, but at this point I don't expect that to happen until late january. I'll let you guys know more when i figure out my college situation when I get back.

Welcome back! I hope you had a good vacation my friend and don't stress about the misch section we need you alive...

I was just going through the collection of wallpapers on your site (love the site by the way!) and I decided to get the Bicycle thieves wallpaper set as my wallpaper. Looks really good!

mrschroeder1982 · #388 Post by **mrschroeder1982** » Sat Jan 20, 2007 12:40 pm

Thanks a bunch for all your hard work with the wallpapers. I downloaded them all the other night and have them all as my desktop pictures, rotating every minute.

Thanks - highly appreciated. I'm off to Cannes in 1 hour and won't return until 29th, but hopefully SonicDeathMonkey has been able to look at the misch section by then and we'll supply you with even more cool stuff! Thanks to everyone who's been shipping/e-mailing in stuff. Cheers!

Cinesimilitude · #390 Post by **Cinesimilitude** » Sun Jan 21, 2007 2:30 am

I'll try to pencil in some hours for next week to get the Misc section up, I've been focusing on other things, but I should have time, possibly tomorrow evening.

they look great! Vengeance in particular!

I struggled with the monsters and madmen wp's last week, but I've got some time now, so I'm going to see what I can do with them.

Ives · #393 Post by **Ives** » Sat Feb 24, 2007 7:47 pm

LOVE Army of Shadows. Bravo.

balzer · #394 Post by **balzer** » Sat Feb 24, 2007 11:22 pm

Sansho = New Walpaper at home.

At Work, Army of Shadows.

I am so glad you all have this hobby, it makes me happy. Plus at work it gives me the opportunity to tell people about all the wonderful films I have been watching!

I'm so happy you guys still like the new additions as I'm spending a crazy amount of time maintaining the site.

Here are four new wallpapers:

Enjoy!

Hammock, If you don't mind.
Where are you getting the high res covers to work with?

Ashirg · #397 Post by **Ashirg** » Wed Mar 28, 2007 8:49 pm

Some distributors provide high-resolution covers on their website for retailers.

hammock · #398 Post by **hammock** » Thu Mar 29, 2007 2:17 am

Mbalson has been PM'ed! Ashirg, we still owe you big time for setting us up with the covers.

Cheers...
