Criterion Collection coming to Blu-ray in October

The Criterion Collection's
long-awaited HD debut -- delayed by that annoying
format war -- finally has a date, as well as a list of the first movies getting a definitive release in 1080p. If that wasn't enough, try this bit on for size: They won't charge viewers extra for the privilege. That's right, according to the e-mail that went out to subscribers today, all Blu-ray releases will feature HD picture and sound (no word on what codecs, although we expect nothing but the best considering the company has been mastering and restoring all releases in HD for years now), all the supplemental content and a matching (unspecified) price to their standard DVD editions. The complete email and list of a dozen movies follows after the break, along with a note that
The Last Emperor will also be released in its original theatrical version on both formats for $39.95, while
Walkabout will be an all-new edition.
