Alot of people have pre-ordered theirs and have watched it a million times.

19 days 'till I get mine.

Yes, I was really impressed with the DVD. A great representation fo the Dolls' live show.

i'm really excited for it...i was hoping i'd have it by today, because i'm gonna be out of town until friday, but, no go on that

fairytalevegas · « **Reply #5 on:** July 17, 2007, 04:33:38 PM »

I haven't really seen it yet. Cynthia and I watched the documentary while on line for Jekyll and Hyde and then we never finished. I think we're gonna watch the actual thing tonight.

dj50tonhamster · « **Reply #6 on:** July 17, 2007, 06:33:21 PM »

I got it last week but haven't had a chance to really watch it. So far, I'm a bit disappointed but I'm definitely waiting until I see the entire thing before passing final judgment.

I can hardly believe that someone can be dissapointed by that DVD...
Just watching "Mandy Goes To Med School" really freaks me out (in an enthusiastic way). The improvisational part is sooooo great (imho). I really fell in love with that DVD. But maybe my point of view is blurred 'cause I was there and it has been such a great weekend with friends and music and fun...
I'm not sure.

If I understood, the DVD on Region 4 would not be released in time for us getting in the Contest?

The North American DVD is Region 1 & 4, so if you can watch NTSC discs, you're good to go right now. (If not, I guess you'll have to wait for the Aussie disc.)

Now that I've gotten to watch a bit more of the disc, I think my main problem with it really is the general look. There's just this "flat" look to the video that I've noticed with a lot of digital video. The video is sharp and crisp and all that, but the aesthetics are a bit off in my opinion. Maybe the video would look better in high def but I don't know.

Also, I'm just not happy with the direction. Sorry. It just feels the director could've shot the exact same thing for *insert random band here*. It's not bad, per se. It's just bland.

That being said, I really do need to watch the whole thing. Maybe that'll change my mind. I'm also not trying to say Dolls fans should avoid the disc. Those who haven't seen them live or missed the last tour will probably be the happiest viewers. Everybody else...well, your mileage may vary.

in fact, i can watch region 1 on my table dvd, but i dont take the risk of using other regions on my pc dvd reader - even though i tricky it region switch limit. good to hear that it is noth 1&4. now, i just need the money. :'(

There are loads of ways to get around region coding on PCs. I'd be surprised if you really couldn't.

if Im not wrong, it even dont exist on linux. since there's no support among the authoring labs for DVD-Film on Linux (really complicate story. deserves a dedicate post), the libdvdread (the libraries needed to watch dvd films on linux) already decript them and thus no region limit. but, Im not 100% sure... eventhough, Im about to change my drive firmware, just waiting the warrent to expire.

cheers!

it's so beautiful. i watched it with my friend and i was a little bit high and she was really high so when we watched delilah, the part where that lady who was screaming just scared her. and then she started screaming along with her as her dogs barked wildy at her. but the Mandy Goes to Med School solo part left my speechless. I'm a little bit jealous of amanda. just a little tiny bit. and then for the rest of the week until today I just kept watching it. well, i actually bought it last week. on Saturday July 14, 2007 at around 3:55 pm.

I got mine sunday 15 so i think its good enough, the dvd is really great i am not dissapointed, could someone tell me if it sounds better in 5.1 audio? cause the PCM is good but not good enough, i love when everybody is singing sing its amazing, and i think that at the end of the song after amanda and brian thank to the audience, the foot hiting the floor is Jason Webley`s foot because its following the rythm as he usually does.

The video can be different. If the disc comes from North America, parts of South America, and most of Asia, it's NTSC. If it's from elsewhere, it's PAL. Most PAL-native equipment can play NTSC discs but the opposite isn't very common.

Anyway, there can be differences depending on who releases it, but assuming the content's meant to be exactly the same, other than region coding and the PAL/NTSC thing, there aren't any significant differences.

Wait, there's a disc with PCM audio? Mine only has Dolby Digital and DTS. I'd like to have a PCM track! Anyway, the DTS track sounds fine. I don't have a surround rig but the audio's clear and all that.

Er....I don't think anyone picked him up. From what I remember.

It wasn't so much as a stumble as a full on intergalactic launch into the darkness. As falls go, it was pretty spectacular. It still gets a hearty guffaw from me. Sorry Trash.

I'm pretty sure there was a wireless transmitter on the guitar, otherwise you wouldn't hear it at all.
