She 'retired' to a Vegas act, so unfortunately we will still have to put up with live shows being released.

Now if it has interviews of her being questioned about dating her manager/later husband at 15. And sliding into her "I don't speak English" act, and the reporter nodding and continuing the interview in french.

Hell yes, I will buy that, and cycle that for an hour.

blitz6speed · 02-05-2008, 10:10 PM

Im buying this, i love Celines music.

bmr76 · 02-05-2008, 10:13 PM

The wife factor is startin to kick in. Hd dud spinsters always said that gamers dont buy movies, yeah but their wives do!

Seriously, I think the install base is evolving, and its going to start showing.

I'm not a Celine fan at all but I hope her Blu ray sells a ton. Maybe Oprah will recommend it on her show and help spur more Blu ray player sales. Gotta think of the big picture here boys.

They sold 90,000 tickets in 25minutes here in Montreal. She added a 7th show.

Celine is like the WWE. Everyone deny listening to her but she's sell a lot...

Marcusarilius · 02-05-2008, 10:22 PM

Not my forte, but GO BD sales!!!

Talking about the WWE...

I think Vince McMahon should have Ken Graffeo be the next member of the "kiss my ass" club

Beating a dead horse... bringing up/asking something that has been discussed a thousand times before

Hornswoggle kissing Vince's ass in HD --> Brilliant!

--> Part 1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rJyExMiOWjo

--> Part 2 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Apb9EFM9kk

I'd rather watch that then Celine Dion

P.S. Next week he wrestles the midget in the ring

It puts any accusations to rest that Blu-ray's a videogamer's format.

This Marks the End of her Show in Vegas, she's back, and she'll be kicking ass all over again....Although, I must admit, I don't know a single one of her songs. I think this is good, I love blu-ray concerts, I recently Picked up Incubus, NIN, and Shakira. I may get this one now.

We get one out of Madonna, and we're set. And these are all Mainstream No? Nobody gives a Damn about Panic!, people like them wouldn't know real music if it crawled up their ass, try finding one of their cds 10 years down the line.....it won't exist. That's Why I'm happy we can get some people With Real Voices and Lyrical Talent. Like Incubus, Shakira, Celine Dion, Queen, Tony Bennet, and Santana!

If you Want mainstream, go for ones with Some sort of Staying Power as Well, Like Justin Timberlake...I can't deny his songs are damn catchy, Manufactured, bu Catchy none the Less

But I Repeat, Madonna.....Nuff Said

Also a lot of Celine male fans are gay. I can't find the article i read this from, but gay men use/have more disposable income than straight men.

Aha! I knew it! But I didn't say it because I didn't want to offend any people, but I'm truly thankful to you for solving my confusion

Your question was posted right after my post, was it directed at me?

There are several reasons why i bought it. It is supposed to have excellent video and AUDIO quality. Céline is technically an excellent singer, though most of what i've heard from her so far hurts my ears. I want to know, how a technically excellent recording of her sounds like. I was curious.

Then there is the thing, that i love music in general. I have a large vinyl collection and i hope we might see more highresolution music via Blu-ray, as SACD/DVD-A are dead (never bought into the formats though, there was no music on them i cared about enough to buy into the formats. Still all CD for me). So concert Blu-rays always have my interest.

And last but not least, i saw the sale for the disc on the day HD DVD really died for me. I am purple and i loved HD DVD for being region free, so i was indeed sad about HD DVD dying. The music of Céline is sometimes painful for me, so i thought it would be a good disc to buy on that day. It combines both the "joy" for Blu-ray winning and the "pain" of HD DVD dying and the disc will always remind of that day.

That's why i bought it and i am not kidding you here.

diamondfoxxx · 02-22-2008, 01:36 PM

I meant it as no offense, I just couldn't understand why her concert blu-ray was selling well. As someone before me said, I'd understand if it was Led Zeppelin or such legendary band but a modern singer cracking the top ten on a format that is somewhat new was confusing to me.
Anyway, enjoy your music. No hard feelings I hope.
