Green Day: Bullet in a Bible gets Blu treatment!

[N8DOGG]

I nearly pooped my pants when I seen this was going Blu! One of my favorite concerts on DVD, without a doubt. The only downer? We have to wait til December 31st for it's release! I foresee many sleepless nights until this arrives...

Amazon's pre-order is $22.49.

"The concert/documentary runs at about two-hours long, and spliced in between each song are interviews and behind the scenes footage"

I hate when they do this with concert dics. I find this interupts the flow of the show. Why can't they just have the complete show and put the other crap in the extras or as a bonus disc.

Isn't that what DVDs/Blu-rays are all about?

I've had my copy for almost a year now. It's pretty good. The picture quality is not the best, lots of grain, but the concert itself is high energy and great fun. You should enjoy it.

*edit* Check your local BestBuy. They had done a release of this last April. It still may be in stock there. If not, I can get you a copy now, if you want.

Paramore's concert DVD was the same, but when it came out on Blu-Ray they put the concert and the documentary separate. I do agree that having them both together does interrupt the flow of the show, but not so much that I would skip the Green Day one if I really wanted it.

Other than The Last Waltz, which is a classic rock documentary, I don't like the documentary-style or interspersion of clips during a concert. Show me the concert as it was filmed and let me watch the other stuff when I want, if I so choose.

It's really not that bad. It's like 20-45 seconds of interview, mixed in among the concert. It's not like a 5 min. cut scene with talking, then a song, then another 5 min. of interview. It's not that disturbing to the experience at all.

+1

Doesnt matter if its only 30-45 seconds...............this just totally ruins the whole flow of the actual music/concert. Play the show uninterrupted, then put the interviews as bonus features.

[TylerDurden]

How does this compare with the Metallica Mexico Blu? I heard its the same thing with cut scenes of interviews.

you can't argue though it would be less disturbing if it was not there at all

Haha yeah this has been on Blu-ray for a long time. I got it as a bundle with the new album at Best Buy.

[Wings80]

Paul McCartney released 2 concert DVD's, Back in the U.S. and The Space Within US that were ruined with cut scenes inbetween songs. Paul must have finaly listened to complaints and gave us a complete concert with Good Evening New York City . Now I wish he would release it on Blu-Ray.

I just feel that a concert disc should be a concert. And all the extra footage, interviews, backstage stuff etc should be included in the extra's or bonus disc.

[rcthebearcub]

Gotta agree here. I have the dvd and would love to see the concert uninterrupted and the documentary stuff after. The show is so high energy it keeps breaking the flow when they stop to talk.

The blu that really disappointed me as far as breaking up the flow was Led Zeppelin "The Song Remains The Same". What's with the embarrassing Sir Galahad jousting s**t. I want to watch Jimmy play the guitar & Bonzo on the drums.

It's supposed to be a concert movie. I was never intended to be just concert footage. While I agree it would be nice to see the show in it's entirety it's also a classic film that shows where Led Zeppelin was coming from with thier lyrics and sound. I couldn't really accept it any other way.

I understand that. I guess I just don't get it and will continue to fast forward between the concert footage.

Great concert, and a great package. Putting the DVD in with the CDs of the concert, and the whole thing was under 20$.

I have the Last Supper DVD from Black Sabbath, and the interview footage is put ON TOP of the concert footage. Only 2 or 3 songs from the whole show are uninterrupted and can be heard all the way through. It would have been a perfect disc otherwise.
