No updates on my DHL shipment.
It's taken a week to travel a 2 hour drive. DHL sucks!

Mine did the same exact thing. I believe this is DHL's equivalent of Fedex's "Smart" Post. Ridiculous.

Re: November Criterion Sale
Good for you. I did not have such luck and found the folks in the Clifton store on Rt. 3, for instance, to be a LOT friendlier and flexible about these things than the Livingston staff. I was able to use 2 at once in Clifton, but haven't tried again this sale.

Hope that dude likes it better than A.O. Scott of the NY Times:
"The scandal of 'Antichrist' is not that it is grisly or upsetting but that it is so ponderous, so conceptually thin and so dull."
Just brutal.

Re: November Criterion Sale
I liked it a lot. but I wouldn't buy it just because I couldn't watch it again. or not enough to merit buying it. mostly because of the "scene(s)"

Re: November Criterion Sale
I didn't necessarily hate it, but I've seen it once, I don't think I need to purchase it for repeat viewings - I'll more than likely rent the disc from Netflix to watch the supplments later on down the line.

i thought Antichrist was genuinely one of the finest pieces of work from last decade. may be just me! can't wait to get the blu-ray and load up on extras.

Used another $5 coupon today and bought Revanche BD. Probably just pick up one more BD and buy Night of the Hunter next week.

Re: November Criterion Sale
Just got House (Blu-Ray) and Black Orpheus (Blu-Ray). I'm waiting on the 2nd order I placed (Crumb, Paths Of Glory, and Thin Red Line, all on Blu), and will probably place at least one or two more orders before the sale ends.
I watched Revanche via Instant on Netflix some time ago. You reminding me about it has kinda moved it back to the forefront of the titles I planned to get...

I saw it in theaters and thought it was fantastic also. I hear the Von Trier commentary on the criterion is incredibly informative.

Went in and bought Antichrist this morning at the B&N a block from my house and they had 9 copies of blu & 9 copies on dvd.
Got denied on the coupon though. The manager told me because of the sale being 50% off corporate has decided to not allow coupons to be used on criterions while the sale is going on. He said they just got sent this info yesterday.

I'll probably get it, too. I suspect (at least for me) it may turn out a lot like my experience with Salo. I have to see it just to see what all the fuss is about, but then I may have to turn right around and sell it off afterwords.

Btw, if they say 'well the discounted price is under 20 dollars' ... ask them to get a calculator and display the math in dollars and cents (i.e. 2 digits past decimal). For example, 39.99 retail price discounted by 50 percent rounds to 20.00 not 19.99 on any calculator. Most should give up by that point and my guess is that most won't want to jerk a customer around for a penny difference anyway.

That's quite a stance from corporate if the manager was being truthful. Assuming it's true, no one should be surprised. This is how retailers react when consumers try to game their promotions and policies.

Re: November Criterion Sale
wait and see really. this could easily be bullsh!t from a manager. how many times have we seen people in this thread denied by managers saying that "corporate said this was fake" etc..

Re: November Criterion Sale
I agree. We've seen dozens of BS excuses created whole-cloth by various clerks and managers attempting to deny these coupons. Worst case, YMMV continues to reign.

Re: November Criterion Sale
I'll just be bummed out if they deny me when I'm trying to use the coupon with full respect to its stated terms. I'm not trying to game anyone.
