weird intercuts


They could have skipped those weird intercuts with grainy reels of Bill, dont'cha think?

Awful Awful Awful. My favorite Hicks video (along with Revelations), but I cringe whenever those little demon voices pop up, or the slo-mo. Embarrassingly disrupts the flow of the show.

Yeah, it pisses me off. Especially in the parts where the added imagery completely obscures the on-stage performance. I believe I got this to watch his stand-up show, not to see some random douche bag's half-ass video collage.

Oh well, it's still Bill Hicks, and that can't be a bad thing.

Agreed, they should be optional.

And don't forget this was originally a low budget production for Sacred Cow and has only just got a wider release.
Still, i agree, they are pretty bad.

On the DVD there is included a shorter cut of the show (about 20 minutes cut short of the extended version). However it's approved by the man himself. I haven't personally watched it yet, so I can't say for sure whether or not it includes these somewhat annoying, but sometimes intriguing intercuts. If anything, you will get to see the show like Bill envisioned it for us.

Completely disagree. This isn't a stale Jay Leno routine where he just stands still and cranks out jokes like a robot. This is Bill Hicks. He's expanding on the visual interpretations of his consciousness. And you speak as if the footage was unintentionally grainy. Folks, there was a reason Bill wanted you to see this.
