I never thought I would say this but I freaking love Twitter! About an hour ago, Ben Lim, one of the fine fellows who work for The Criterion Collection tweeted a photo with the note “Screening the HD master of an upcoming release…“. That image appears to be from Terrence Malick‘s brilliant The Thin Red Line providing evidence that my favourite home video label is preparing to release the 1998 film!
“Screening the HD master of an upcoming release…” – Ben Lim
Criterion is providing a lot of hints about their upcoming line-up of films via their Twitter account lately – last week they revealed that they’re actively working on the twisted Japanese horror film House (Hausu) and now they drop hints about Malick’s Line! The only real burning question remaining is whether or not either of these films will see a high-def release on Blu-ray or be relegated to old, SD DVD. Let’s pray for the former…




oh yes baby!!
YES !!!!!! One of my favorite all time movies. There is no way this is not going to see a Blu release !
Blu-Ray is a shoo-in.
This was the #1 film I wanted on Blu
Amazing …I have been waitin forever to see this emerge on Blu ray …I wonder when it’s going to drop…probably before Malick’s next release later in the year.
[...] PS: See, I told you Criterion was preparing The Thin Red Line for Blu-ray disc! [...]
