@colliderfrosty what are you drinking? in reply to colliderfrosty #
@colliderfrosty its interesting, drinking always makes for more productive podcasting than blog writing. in reply to colliderfrosty #
@colliderfrosty I'm scared about heading to SXSW in a few weeks. I'll have so much writing to do, while at the same time, so much drinking. in reply to colliderfrosty #
@rejects I can definitely hold my liquor, but I'm anticipating many a drunken video review. in reply to rejects #

@kateyrich Are you just going for the end of the Film / the beginning of the music festival at SXSW? in reply to kateyrich #
@rogerthatprod thanks for sticking with us! I know those first dozen episodes aren't the greatest sound quality. (@CriterionCast) in reply to rogerthatprod #
@shwood and the Wire + Battlestar Galactica for TV. in reply to shwood #
Finally finishing my viewing of Lola Montes on Blu-ray. This movie is so gorgeous, but I feel like I need to read up on the real history. #
Also, Martine Carol is absolutely stunning in this movie. Which of her films should I watch next? #
Is there a service out there that helps unfollow those that don't follow me? #
Alright, for those interested, justunfollow.com seems to be the easiest of the sites I've found, to unfollow people. #
@audible_com if you're ever looking for a new podcast to sponsor, check out @CriterionCast #

@slashfilm is it one of the Star Trek / sci-fi ones? in reply to slashfilm #
Finally watched Precious tonight, in preparation for the pre-Oscar Podcast with @kevincarr. Absolutely heartbreaking. Secret of Kells next. #
Interesting, got a crap ton of March releases today, sans packaging. In envelopes. Hopefully this is a good sign? #
Listening to the Empire Strikes Back Score while I prepare tomorrows new release post. Make Way for Tomorrow! #
So, did I miss something, who was that white girl that showed up in Precious' class towards the end of the movie? #
@janessapk totally, and they all treated her as if she was there the whole time. in reply to janessapk #
@mattsinger Every year they talk about moving it. If that happens, I may stop going. in reply to mattsinger #
Check out our latest episode of @CriterionCast, where we discuss Whit Stillman's Metropolitan (@Criterion #326) http://bit.ly/9ostOy #
I wish @DisneyPictures would start up a DVD on demand service, like WB Archive, so I can order the rest of the Gargoyles episodes I need. #
Watched the Sanjuro trailer earlier, to prepare myself for the Blu-ray release. Had no idea it was a comedy. @Criterion #53 #
Hey @Criterion, your free movie festival page is stuck on October 09. Time to update? #

Aw, so nice of Chud to use my list of Criterion films on Hulu, oh wait, they didn't link to my post. Jerks. #
@fistfulofmedia they usually are, they've linked to our Netflix posts in the past. Hopefully it'll be fixed. in reply to fistfulofmedia #
@eveofdoom I know right? I'm sure it was just a momentary lapse in judgment. in reply to eveofdoom #
@eveofdoom yeah, they must have gone and searched through all the movies on Hulu and come up with the list in the exact same order as I did. in reply to eveofdoom #
@ilikescott Scott, are you still down for Friday? #
@alisonwillmore any chance there'll be vegan options? I'll be there every morning 🙂 in reply to alisonwillmore #

Wha happened? Did anyone elses #SXSW schedule lose stuff? #
@willschiff interesting, it looks like it was mostly the film screenings, and not the panels. in reply to willschiff #
A Small, Yet Awesome Library Haul For 2/24/10 http://flic.kr/p/7FD58G #
@moiseschiu yeah, I had a ton of screenings added to my schedule, and now they're gone. Ho hum. in reply to moiseschiu #
While we're talking about it, is anyone having issues with the my.SXSW iPhone app? I can't seem to get my schedule on there correctly. #
I have a feeling that this will come in handy while at SXSW. I'll be everyones best friend. http://flic.kr/p/7FDbcJ #
@RadioConelrad that's the one. I was reminded of it again and again while watching Death Proof the other night. in reply to RadioConelrad #
Check out this Fake @Criterion Fantastic Four Cover. Namor? I don't think the Sub-Mariner has the patience to direct. http://bit.ly/9Wo8i4 #
Does anyone know who did the illustration on the cover of the recent @Criterion: Make Way For Tomorrow? It seems like I should know this. #
Did any of you have one of these RCA Selectavision's? @AndrewRC was talking to me about them at work. RE: Dark Crystal http://bit.ly/cvErru #
Also, what's happening with the Dark Crystal sequel? Enquiring minds want to know. #
@willschiff I'm definitely going to that too! There is no such thing as too much hyperbole. in reply to willschiff #
@fistfulofmedia excellent! I have that book, but still haven't read it: http://twitpic.com/15769a #
Fake @Criterion covers are so much fun, they should be mandatory excercises in Art School: http://bit.ly/b2AThg #

Heres a fake @Criterion cover for @thepretension and @morelessons: Battleship Potemkin http://bit.ly/cmSyjt #
Actually, I think I like this Fake @Criterion Cover for Battleship Potemkin a little more: http://bit.ly/cJWEOt #

@slashfilm we're watching him right now, revisiting the Royal Tenenbaums for @CriterionCast this week. in reply to slashfilm #
@rejects @ColeAbaius not to be a back-seat editor, but you're missing an "of" in there. Third paragraph. in reply to rejects #
Well said. RT @kyle_newman: CAPTAIN EO is BACK at DISNEYLAND! F@CK YES N'SHIT! http://starwars.com/movies/other/news20091219/index.html #
The Royal Tenenbaums is just like I remember it. I cannot wait to get a Blu-ray release of this movie. Get on that @Criterion, ASAP. #
@Devindra we need video footage! in reply to Devindra #
@ColeAbaius I guess in an article about cavemen, that is acceptable. in reply to ColeAbaius #
@ColeAbaius I think you meant to write: "Using OF is out style." in reply to ColeAbaius #
@ColeAbaius I think this makes me your honorary Twitter editor. in reply to ColeAbaius #
@ColeAbaius some may call it consistency, others, a self-fulfilling prophecy. in reply to ColeAbaius #
I just realized that if I had done my Hulu + C the other way around, it would have spelled Cthulu! http://bit.ly/ddeIpY #
Hmm, maybe this @Criterion / @hulu deal is really a Lovecraftian sign of things to come: http://twitpic.com/157qs1 #
@kevincarr are you watching the Classic Chases Vol 4? I talked about that on the podcast a few weeks back. (@Wb_Home_Ent) in reply to kevincarr #

Another incredible dinner from Charmaine: boca burger and fries, all vegan! http://flic.kr/p/7FLiGv #
@FyodorFish yep, I've been vegan for almost ten years now. in reply to FyodorFish #
Secret of Kells made me want to rewatch all of Samurai Jack. I love this animation style. It fills out the Best Animated category perfectly. #
It would be an interesting experiment, trying to describe the plot of Secret of Kells, vaguely, and try to make it sound like Avatar. #
I would love to see @Criterion pick up The Secret of Kells as their first animated release. #
Continuing our Oscar marathon with In the Loop. Bring on this awesome swearing I've heard so much about. #
Hey iPhone friends, have any of you shelled out for the Final Fantasy iPhone game that was just released? Is it worth the hefty price? #
You know, there are quite a few people in In the Loop that I wouldn't mind to see pop up in The Hobbit. Maybe even as Bilbo… #
@kevincarr which city are you headed to? in reply to kevincarr #
@kevincarr thats awesome dude, you should hit up Rudie to grab coffee while you're in the area. in reply to kevincarr #
Are there any iPhone apps I should get for SXSW? (Besides the official my.SXSW app of course) #
Just realized I had a $15 iTunes Gift Card leftover from Xmas from my awesome relatives. First iPhone App purchase: Plants vs Zombies. #

@Jason with your new enthusiasm towards animal rights, will you go vegetarian/vegan next? Every choice in life can be an ethical one. in reply to Jason #
I wonder how many movie bloggers would take down a bad review for $400k? Probably more than would like to admit. #

@moiseschiu haha, well for that, I'd keep the review up. in reply to moiseschiu #
