films unworthy of the criterion collection that somehow made it in (a post inspired by beth's comment about armageddon)
so ms. beth corrected me in my rash statement about the critterion collection's library all being fine and important pieces of cinema. so to set the record straight, here are the films that are not worthy of the criterion treatment but somehow received it nonetheless:
robocopooohhh, beth , it looks embossed!
chasing amy
i don't think i will ever get or like kevin smith...
and jay and silent bob should not be on a criterion cover. ever.
beastie boys video anthology
i think the beastie boys are fun and all, but criterion?
the rock
by what criterion are they judging films here?
traffic
a good flick, but again, probably not a classic or important film.
and of course...
armageddon
i'm sure there are probably others, but from what i've seen, films chosen for criterion are great 90% of the time.

And don't forget "Earnest Goes to Shit" starring Earnest.
As stated before, I stand behind Chasing Amy, Traffic, and the Beastie Boys. All the rest can burn in hell...
I also agree the beastie boy anthology is a solid and impressive choice. they did some of the most creative video shooting when other artists of the day were filming something to the tune of "Parents just don't understand" - W. Smith. Sabatoge alone was golden.
...these are criterion collection?
Who did the producers of Robocop bribe?
