Received the set today. Not much chance of reviewing it before Monday though...
That's true. I guess I don't think of it that way because they always fill up a widescreen TV.
Correction: At the very least it will be nice to have the image properly scaled to a widescreen television

BDs aren't anamorphic

Interesting. Not sure how I feel about that. Shot composition is a huge part of Barry Lyndon. At the very least it will be nice to have an anamorphic, higher resolution image of it. Thanks for the info.

Just noticed you guys aren't getting Spartacus and Dr.Strangelove in this set, and the US is. WB doesn't own the distribution on those.. guess they had trouble getting the rights in the UK.

I'm hoping we can review this, but at the moment the PR company doesn't have check discs for all of the titles. They are working on it though.

I read "O' Lucky Man" the first time and about died of excitement.

Despite what the press release indicates, having got my hands on a finished copy of the UK boxset last week, it does include the second Clockwork Orange disc including A Life in Pictures and O' Lucky Malclom. However it's positioned at the back of the over-sized Amary case, almost as a bonus disc for the entire set, rather than as a bonus disc for A Clockwork Orange.
If Clockwork Orange is any indication, it doesn't look like they're putting out new transfers. I already have everything in this set except for Lolita and Barry Lyndon, so I'll just order them on Amazon and save a lot of money.
Looking forward to Criterion's release of The Killing (http://www.criterion.com/films/27751-the-killing), with Killer's Kiss as a special feature. They did a great job on Paths of Glory.

They didn't even include the contents of the new two-disc Clockwork Orange edition, with the feature documentary "A Life in Pictures"?
This is definitely a hackneyed job.
