Okay just a quick question here, does Criterion still book for theaters for classics and such or are they just non-theaterical public performance now?

I don't recall Criterion ever doing theatrical bookings. I know they have a close relationship with Janus Films, who is a theatrical distributor.

Yes, Criterion still handles theatrical bookings for most 20th Century Fox classic films.

It is my understanding that this Criterion is a different company from the video company associated with Janus.
