It says Newsletter and June 2015, though.

Yes, but the newsletter generally focuses on all releases. This is more of a compendium of the Gregory/Shawn material they've been putting out all month.Ribs wrote:It says Newsletter and June 2015, though.
Plus, we're still a few days away from the usual Newsletter release day.

Should I feel embarrassed by guessing Only Lovers Left Alive? I hope not, as I would love to see it in the collection.

Gotta be. I haven't seen the movie, but apparently there's a scene involving a blood popsicleRSTooley wrote:Should I feel embarrassed by guessing Only Lovers Left Alive? I hope not, as I would love to see it in the collection.

How does the neon hotel sign fit Only Lovers Left Alive? I guess they went to a hotel in northern Africa, but it doesn't stand out as a key part of the movie. Byzantium would be more fitting, but that didn't have popsicles.

Assuming Only Lovers Left Alive is correct (and I believe it is), it's yet another very recent Sony owned film that they released on Blu-ray only to be given to Criterion (the other being the New Years clue for Inside Llewyn Davis)

Mystery Train?
Re: Criterion Newsletter: Clues and More, Volume Four
The first title that popped into my head is Schlessinger's "Honky-tonk Freeway." I really hope that isn't it!

Re: Criterion Newsletter: Clues and More, Volume Four
There's no way that's a clue for Only Lovers Left Alive. Is there even a single neon sign anywhere in that film? Anyone who's seen the film could think of a better way to hint at it than that. I think we're missing a visual pun/play on words here (cue keyword searches on IMDB of neon, blood, pop, &c)

Good call.

Only Lovers Left Alive and Before Midnight were released just a few months apart. I don't know why people think Only Lovers Left Alive is too recent but also think Criterion is releasing the Before trilogy soon.

Re: Criterion Newsletter: Clues and More, Volume Four
the popsicle does seem to hint pretty strongly towards Only Lovers Left Alive... but the rest is just baffling for that film.
Does the fact that the "NO" seemingly isn't lit up spark anything for anyone? Grasping at straws here...

Body Double? Would go well with the upcoming Dressed to Kill release.

OK, really grasping at straws here, but Coffee and Cigarettes? Basing this on Steve Buscemi's evil twin Elvis theory and Steven Wright's mention of caffeine popsicles. I have no idea what to make of the "No Vacancy" lights.swo17 wrote:Well there's a vacancy because there are none of them left alive.domino harvey wrote:There's no way that's a clue for Only Lovers Left Alive.

Enormous, probably embarrassing stretch: In Cold Blood? It's an inn, there's a vampire eating a popsicle (cold blood)?
Eh, I have no idea
