Anything in particular on the Criterion D&C that's really interesting, Cory? I might pick this one up.
Excellent transfer, for one. DTS track really pops for the soundtrack, and the extras are fantastic, especially the documentary. I've been told that the Linklater commentary was very informative and fun, as well. People are going nuts over the packaging as well. It has holes in the cardboard, with pictures on the digipak sleeve, then when you remove the digipak sleeve, there's pictures printed on the back/inside of the case. It also includes a VERY cool booklet (I read it all) as well as the original movie poster (art only).
Great package over all, and probably the last of the classic Criterion releases with the regular "Criterion Collection" bar at the top. After "Dazed and Confused", "Equinox", "Yi-Yi", and "Koko" I believe they're going with the new look they debuted.
I did fold and buy "Running Scared". I saw the first 8 minutes online, uncut and it sold me. I ended up renting it before it was released and really enjoyed it. Just so artsy and different, like a lighter, more coherent Tony Scott movie. I came to learn the DTS track on it is insane, especially during the apartment raid with Chazz Palmenteri. Each gun sounded like it had its own channel.
