If you just searched for Mariah Carey, I don't think it would show up. That's what I initially tried and what the girl at BB was trying. I ended up putting Mariah Carey + blu-ray in the search box and that brought up only the blu-ray version (still does, just checked). Just now, I found it by searching for mimi also but I'm not sure that worked for me earlier (I can't remember now if I tried that when I was checking to see if BB had it but I probably didn't).

Thanks everyone for the concert comparison.

It appears that Shakira's concert is better than Celine's concert. Is this correct.

I have Celine's concert and it seems to be an excellent production. I haven't seen others. Celine's concert is encoded in 1080/60i on blu-ray although some web pages indicate as 1080p.

Good to know whether other two concerts are in 1080p or i.

A co-worker who speaks Chinese told me "mimi" is sometimes used to describe "boobies" in Chinese.

(for example, you can say "hey, that chick has really big mimis!" )

Interesting that Mariah Carey(who has really big you know what) chose to call it The Adventures of Mimi.....

Speaking of big boobs, does anyone else think that this BR doesn't have a lot of bass in the LFE track?

hmm...then what about her last album - the EMANCIPATION of MIMI?? lol

Emancipation is being set free -- maybe she finally let them puppies out.

There are many languages in the world. The chances of a naughty word in one language is a name or an object in another language is not zero, especially if you take into account colloquial words.

Dereck Jeter had said on record "mimi" does not take really good care of herself.. (hygene).

Link · 04-17-2008, 08:13 PM

Mine hasn't arrived yet, but I can't wait to see it. The DVD release was good, so the Blu release should be even better.

Ice2Dragon · 04-17-2008, 08:13 PM

For my gf of course..

I freely admit it as well - she's an icon. To me anyway.

I received my copy from Amazon yesterday and it's highly recommended for any MC fan. Although the Blu case does say 1080i, it looks great. Sound is awesome as well.

Do you guys think Beyonce's blu got retracted b/c it would have come out around the same time as MC's?

Just finished watching this. Looks and sounds great!

You shouldn't be complaining. Most video cameras that are used for documentary or concerts are 1080i25/30. Blame that on ATSC broadcast of 1080i requirement. It'll be a while until all the fleet of these pro cams get replaced with 1080p cams.
