I had to return my Criterion of this title because it turned bronze and wouldn't play. But they never sent me a replacement despite two emails about it. So if it's not Criterion this time, I'll be interested, but the link doesn't show any pre-order version.
I wonder if I should sell my Criterion Bluray now, or keep it until I see some screenshots of the Cohen one, and decide what color palette I like best.
Do you think with the upcoming release, there will be still people interested in buying the Criterion one?
I can't imagine why anyone would contemplate offloading an existing disc 'on spec' this far out.
No offense intended but after getting burned getting rid of an older disc before I even have the new one in hand (to determine whether or not it's even an upgrade) I can't imagine why anyone would contemplate offloading an existing disc 'on spec' this far out.
This has been released... with an aspect ratio of 2.50:1 which seems to crop off the bottom. Anyone have any insight as to why this was done?

The one problem with keeping your Criterion is its one of the discs effected by the layer failure bronzing issue that affected many of their early disks and they aren't repressing that title.
I think it depends on the pressing. The problematic Criterion discs all seemed to be pressed sometime in the spring of 2010 or thereabouts, which would have been at least a second pressing of this title. To my knowledge, all of the "always a problem" titles all had their FIRST pressings during the trouble time. HE was a disc with problems only reported "some" of the time. Those who got the title when it first came out (late 2009) haven't reported any issues with the title that I'm aware of. I guess what I'm saying is (although I can certainly be wrong) that, if it was going to happen it should have happened by now. If it hasn't happened yet then I don't think you got a bad one.
I just pulled mine out the other night (to help me decide whether or not to pop for the Cohen) and it still isn't showing any signs of damage. I'm going to stick with the Criterion (for as long as I can, anyway) because I haven't been overwhelmed by any of the Cohen caps I've seen thus far.
