christies: a couple of thoughts on the extra stuff


i really liked watching the interviews, mostly because roger waters does cool stuff like blow smoke rings and he's absolutely hilarious... when he said "christies, these oysters..." i cracked up. i love the dark side of the moon stuff. i think the space shots are so retarded and corny. i would've rather seen shots of the floyd than space. but the thing that's even more retarded and even cornier is the fact that the director thought it would be cool to include a really cheaped out computer made virtual tour of pompeii... i couldn't believe it, that part is almost as funny as roger's sense of humor, but in a very different way because it's not supposed to be funny. serisouly, what was the director thinking? it looks like the cheaped out things they make for the history channel on specials about jesus... however, i overlook these two cheap things. this is probably my favorite concert movie, just above gimme shelter.

go go go

My sentiments exactly....I just finished watching what used to be an EXCELLENT film which was reduced to a piece of crap by a completely retarded director! I just hope I can find my old VHS copy so I don't have to watch this piece of crap, which was stupidly done in widescreen format, with stupid NASA footage, and other random stupid things added. WTG Adrian, you f-ed up a movie that WAS ALREADY PERFECT!!!!
