Your mustache and shirt make this feel too personal. It feels like you're about to light a candle and open some wine.

This man really went from Ratatouille to Salo so casually

Pov : You’re on a date with Kursten Ranquist

Soooo, funny story about me watching your video here. I work at a cafe and we get to play our own music there, and today was my turn to play music. As I went on my lunch break I was delighted to watch this video while having a smoke. Little to my knowledge, a glitch happened where instead of music, your video stared playing out over the speaker. So as I got back I realized what had happened and just started to laugh so hard. So I hope you found some joy in knowing that 40 plus people tried to study/work while listening to you just talk about what movies you own. I really hope someone got a recommendation out of it

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who has dozens of Criterion movies that still need to be watched

Karsten: Parasite, Tati collection, Blue velvet Also Karsten: *yOgIi BeAr 3D*

Karsten PLEASE Make a Top 20 or so of your favorite movies of all time. You've said "Climax" , "Fantastic Mr fox", and "Synechnode , New york" are your favorite movies. It would just be so cool to see.

Are you into literature or many books? A book collection would be awesome as well

Take a shot every time Karsten says “umm”

I CANNOT EXPRESS HOW LONG IVE WANTED THIS!!! THANK YOU KARSTY!!

Karsten is just so funny man. He doesn’t even need to do anything he just makes me feel jolly

Love seeing dvd collections, and from one of my favorite KZfaqrs. FMF was my first criterion 5 years ago, but didn't get hooked on collecting until this year

Hello Karsten - really looking forward to you watching and reviewing Harakiri, it's such a great film! And Kobayashi is a brilliant director - Samurai Rebellion is also excellent (featuring a Mifune/Nakadai duel). The Human Condition is one of the greatest films ever made, it's 9 hours long though so it is a serious undertaking. Thanks for doing what you do!

Karsten you are simply the best at what you do, talking about stuff and making it interesting

So many good box sets, epic collection

A great solution to replacing your Climax broken case is going to the dollar store and buying a bluray and switching out the cases

Something about this video is so comforting

I love supporting small creators like this.

LA HAINE IS A CLASSIC! That's my first Criterion Collection on Blu Ray.

the shirt really ties it together!

i collect DVDs! I'm glad others still do it!

Recently bought True Stories during a sale and it’s become a new favorite! Loving showing it to friends and watch them lose their minds

Love La Haine. Glad you own it. And La La Land might be my favorite film of all time ❤

I like that you don’t care as much about what your collection looks like versus what’s actually in it. Too many movie buffs only buy shit to put on the shelves to impress their friends but you actually love and use your dvds. I keep a DVD collection still in the time of streaming because I know all too well how without physical media, certain works can become lost

Hey Karsten, I don’t know if you have a record collection, but if you do I would be interested to see it. Hope your doing good man love you and your vids

watching this made me feel like I was in a really weird and awkward date, another great one karsten!

Can’t wait for you to watch The Celebration! As someone who also loves Red Rocket, you should check out the criterion for Take Out, which is one of Sean Bakers earlier movies, it’s great

he's so real for loving the before trilogy. linklater rules

I have been waiting for this. I have been waiting for this! thx man

Gotta hit up goodwills. DVDs for like 70 cents depending on where you go, sometimes brand new

such a movie person type of trait to just buy movies to not watch and put it on the shelf lmaoo i ve got like 30 movies i still havent watched either on my shelf

I am the kid in the twitch chat that keeps recommending True Stories. Great movie!

that's fine, but why don't you have a "Romy and Michelle's high school reunion" on dvd or blu-ray?

Hmm, didn’t see any Australian movies in there, some really good stuff from the 70s. I would suggest “Wake in fright” (also called Outback) from 1971. I think it’s right up your alley. Also “Walkabout” from the same year

So, this independent cinema about an hour away from where I live is doing a yearly screening of the Fanny & Alexander television cut around Christmas times which, fun fact, actually was finished way before the theatrical cut, but wasn't shown until a year later because no theaters would show a 5h 22m movie. So, in a sense, the director's cut is actually the original cut. It is also the only version I´ve seen of Fanny & Alexander. Apparently the theatrical cut is streaming now on a local streaming service. I think I'll watch that one too, once Christmas gets closer!

I love how the thumbnail is a reference to the Gaspar Noe Criterion Closet video

Why is Salo just chilling on the thumbnail?!?

Literally yesterday I found Crumb and the Fanny and Alexander box set blu-rays at my local record shop for $12 each. Crumb is 100% the best documentary I've ever seen, glad I finally own it. Also, this made me feel a lot less shitty for not yet watching everything in my own collection!

Great collection man!

Karsten, I just gotta know, alphabetical or spine order for your Criterion’s?

the Ratatoullie showing straight to the Salo showing is great

Man I wish fishing with John was still being printed!

Ayo @Karsten, do you also like the "My Best Friend" song that plays on the Yogi Bear credits.

i remember when you wanted to start a DVD collection specifically. and people were asking you why not blu-ray.

Yo! Did u get City Lights at Rhino Records? I grew up in Claremont and it’s so cool whenever someone brings the town up since it’s on the smaller end.

Why does this look like a scene from a Yorgos Lanthimos movie

Watched this while making pancakes. Very relaxing!

“Parasite, probably the best movie of the 2000s so far”

this was a good reminder to watch the ridiculous amount of criterions i own that i still have never seen so thanks lol

you should make this into a list on letterboxd!

Not familiar with this channel, but I find these sorts of videos very relaxing and nice. Have a good day, friend, God Bless.

Incredible!

Cool video, Karsten!

I saw salo in the thumbnail and clicked immediately

how can parasite be the best movie of the 2000s when Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping is right there 🤔

Let’s goooo, I Love collection videos

great video karsten!!

Karsten: salo yeah need to watch it again Me:nononononononono (insert office Michael Scott yelling turned to auto tune)

I used the pink flamingos criterion to watch it for the first time. Transcended cinematic experience

those 40% off the new J Crew sales hit different now

hi karsty what microphone do you have

have you seen / do you like both versions of Suspiria ?

OH FUCK YEAH! I got around 300 Blu-Rays and 93 Criterion Blu-Rays.

I gotta start visiting all the local record stores

i would love a ranking of the jacques demy movies

literally writing all of these down so i can watch them even tho my watchlist is currently at 100+

Awesome vid bro

Eden Prairie Barnes and Noble is the place to go for 2022 Minnesotan suburbanites!!!

You've never watched an Antonioni film? 'Blow-Up' is probably his most accessible, 'L'eclisse' is my favourite, I suspect you might favour 'The Passenger' but if you are really feeling adventurous perhaps 'Zabriskie Point'!

Great collection! Please watch Blow-Up asap, I think it´s even better than L´Avventura.

You went to Rhino Records in Claremont, CA? Nice!

Harakiri is fantastic give that a watch asap

Something about stealing your copy of Rushmore from your high school’s library just feels poetic

The mic is perfectly in focus

Karsten talking about criterion I’m in!

Karsten you HAVE to watch Brazil man. I’m certain you would enjoy it

That thumbnail though...

Alright writing down my Criterion wishlist

Great video

bro 10 alfred hitchcock movie collection?!?!?

I hope the reason you don't have MacGruber is that you're waiting for the Criterion

21:51 *Robots (2005)* acknowledgment! XD

Salo and Pink Flamingos Double Feature

Hi Kursten!!!!!!!!!

Seeing nowhere in the collection made me very happy… a man of taste
