i read this interview with the president of the "Criterion Collection" the DVD licenser.

he was basically saying, he caught alot of flack from the Criterion hard rocks when he decided to include "Armageddon" in the collection. from his stance, he was building a more rounded collective of films, each representing an classic of it's kind ("Armageddon" being a very specific, very current, modern brand of adrenal entertainment that Criterion hadn't really covered). As long as their presentation stood the test of time.

basically, this is a longwinded way to say, welcome jay z....
