Figured I'd drop a quick heads-up for anyone new to these Criterion Collection sales:

These movies cost more than your usual Blu-rays and 4Ks, even when discounted, but the restorations, packaging, and extras are what you're paying for.
You won't find many blockbusters here because Criterion focuses on classics, indies, and foreign films.
No digital copies come with the discs. They're really made for people who like collecting physical media.
If you prefer streaming, Criterion has its own service (The Criterion Channel) with a lot of overlap plus some exclusives.
This 50% off Barnes & Noble sale only happens twice a year (July and November), so it's a good time to stock up.

These sales have taken place around the same time every year for several years. Sure, maybe OP posted a bit early, but it's easy to believe a manager might have shared some upcoming details.

How do we know this sale is happening? It's not like OP shared an official press release from Criterion - they had a conversation with "a manager" that could have easily been fabricated.

I really like a history of violence. Great movie. But these prices are a bit much for my cheap ass. If you're looking for an intense thriller, check it out.

I loved Barry Lyndon. Found a grainy DVD on eBay. This would be stunning in the 4K UHD format.

I believe these are on sale at Amazon too. But I do prefer to support B&N for this sale instead of the behemoth Amazon

Do we think Do The Right Thing will ever be released on 4k?

Not saying it will happen to these, but the original Spinal Tap Criterion DVD went out of print a long time ago and became a collector's item.
