The service, which will be available on desktop, Roku, Amazon Fire, Apple TV, iOS, and Android devices, is also offering exclusive benefits to “Charter Subscribers,” including reduced pricing ($9.99 per month as opposed to $10.99) and an exclusive movie of the week between sign-up and launch, beginning with the newly released Criterion edition of Elaine May’s Mikey and Nicky.

Sweet. Can't wait to see these classics again.

Hey sometimes they gotta issue the more mainstream fare to finance the more obscure/arty.  Speaking of, I'm looking forward to checking out their release of Jackie Chan's Police Story 1 and 2.

Used to be on Hulu for free... 😞

Hope the special features are included

There's still a decent number Criterion Collection movies on the (free-if-you-have-a-library-card) Kanopy app.

50% off of everything in stock for those of you who like physical media.  The Bergman collection is damn sure worth the price of admission at $150.

Most big city libraries have a good selection of physical copy criterions. I know Houston and San Antonio definitely do.

So one of their inaugural week features is motherfucking David Lynch’s movie catalog. Shut up and take my $.25 per day.

I just hope the iOS and Apple TV apps are functional.

FYI everybody with a membership to the Austin public library has access to Kanopy which has access to many Criterion movies and many other solid films. Just recently expanded it to five films a month.
