I actually watched Armageddon for the sole purpose of wondering just what is up with it. And while it definitely had some real thud parts (that Apollo 1 memorial scene will never be topped in terms of drop-a-truck-on-your-head symbolism) I can say I do get it, in the Lindsay Ellis "this is a perfect movie" sense, or even the Movies with Mikey "there's something hidden here that should have been more fleshed out" sense. I do wonder what that other film of his is. And I guess one thing to note is that Criterion is also not a *complete* list, so just because a movie isn't recognized *now* doesn't mean it never will be. Or did they announce they were stopping new films? (And yes I see what Crash Course you did there. =P )

It's pretty sad that a distributor whose releases can only be played in Region 1/A players has cornered the "international market" :(

That's why they are getting stiff competition from boutique labels in the UK like Arrow and Indicator that do Criterion quality releases.
