The Criterion Collection is actually a prestige film publisher that mainly does historically significant and arthouse films. Usually they get English translated staff commentaries and interviews, they do some good restoration work, and occasionally restore new elements of the film (Romero's original cut for Night of the Living Dead comes to mind).

Should at least have Perfect Blue and the rest of Satoshi Kon's films

>>280744951 (OP)
They should delete their entire catalogue. Not just the anime either.

>The Criterion Collection is actually a prestige film publisher
Lol, no. They're just a distributor who offers things that usually come as a bonus features with premium prices, and that is supposed to make you feels better because their titles are "curated" carefully

Metropolis (2001) would fit pretty well on Criterion

Top Normalfag Anime Movies

1. our Name. (Kimi no Na wa)
2. Spirited Away
3. A Silent Voice (Koe no Katachi)
4. Weathering With You
