Criterion sale

>buy useless objects to put on otherwise useless shelves so that you can occupy otherwise useless space in your needlessly big house that you will spend the rest of your life paying for
*sips* now that's life

Can you substantiate your seemingly arbitrary judgments?

Yes. You can download those movies for free and they will not take up physical space. If you're not doing this, means you want them specifically so that they can take up physical space. Means you don't know what to do with the space you have

so what are you saying dipshit
please, tell us all what to fill our houses with. kids? toys for kids? exercise equipment? sell the house and live out of a van? some people like to display this stuff and some people prefer physical media in case of hard drive failure.

>tell us all what to fill our houses with
Nothing. Have as much space as you need. If you have space you don't know what to do with, sell that house and buy something smaller. You're paying for it with your literal life. I don't have space for useless shit. I do have money though. That's both because I don't buy useless shit and because I don't own the space for useless shit.

I see.
So the desire to "fill space" is the root of Consumerism? Can you elaborate?
Personally I like to buy Criterions because:
>very appealing to look at
>fantastic bonus materials that are rarely available with torrents
>support the existence of Criterion through my purchase (like the weebs on Yea Forums who pay ridiculous prices for blurays because the studios would literally die if they didn't)
I torrent everything else, but Criterions are nice to get once in a while even though I could get the films in decent, often excellent quality on public trackers.

I have them all except from cronos

Completely serious question: do you believe yourself to be a better human being for having different/superior convictions than most people? Do you live a moral life? I often look at people and all I feel is contempt

Criterion is for entry level "cinephile" poseurs.
>Look at all this imdbcore shit I have on bluray. Tarkovsky, Kurosawa, I'm such a cinephile!

The Criterion Collection is very well curated for the most part. It covers many essentials. Don't be silly, every relevant filmmaker, critic and industry professional out there has seen their Kurosawa and Tarkovsky and Criterion provides the best edition for many such essentials. Your elitist attitude is just as annoying as the posers' you describe.

Mignola did that cover. Either that or someone at Criterion is ripping him off seamlessly.

Mishima is fucking amazing. I've posted about it a few times, but I've never seen any discussion or have gotten any (You)s.

Picked up Fantastic Planet, Seven Samurai, and The Seventh Seal last sale. What should I get next bros?
