Amazon Uk are listing a release for the blu-ray as January 7th

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Crossfire-Hurricane-Blu-ray-Rolling-Stones/dp/B009SP4YTG...

Running time is 142 minutes which, if correct, means an extra 24 minutes of footage that isn't in the movie.

And a little reminder for anyone in the UK that the movie is being shown in two parts over the next two Saturdays on BBC2. Part 1 is tomorrow (17th November) as part of a special night of Stones programmes to mark the band's 50th anniversary.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbctwo/programmes/schedules/england/2012/11/17

Note : The fact that the evening's programmes conclude with a screening of "Night Of The Living Dead" at 2.25 am is, I presume, merely a coincidence and not a cynical piece of scheduling.....  Smiley

Good old Beeb..although its easy to mistake some of those zombies for a heavily drugged Keith  Are you fucking serious?

May hold out preordering for a while as I'm hoping for a deluxe edition as I can't imagine Brett Morgen would give me a CD of Bill's interview..

I started crying during the scene when they show the singers doing the vocal arrangement for You Can't Always Get what you Want, right before they announce Brians death... I'm a bit tired today, but it still hit me very hard! Glad I was alone, it was a bit of a gasp, then some silent tears i was trying to fight back. Unexpected moment for me... Very cool too, glad I can feel so deeply something that I've known about most my life.
IMO and fwiw, great movie... This movie is good for die hards, causals and never knew much about them's...
have a great day... I'm going to go try to sweat out this bug or whatevr I seem to have eating my lunch!

I did not like that at all......almost all of the rare stuff is lurking around out here on the web. The live music was not sound synced......

if you enjoyed it good deal...but I will stick with the concert films and a few other documentaries which are more appealing to me.

Hubby and I watched it twice.  We both teared up when Mick was saying No Expectations was Brian's last real contribution to the band and then didn't realize how short a time it had been between Brian being fired and him dying. 

All in all not a bad documentary, 25X5 was more detailed I thought.

I'm still hoping they release 25X5 on DVD one of these days.

I think some are missing Crossfire Hurricane's very objective here.

I personally know two film fans...one of em is a Stones fan... the other one just "appreciates" The Stones ...they took it differently than some of you are noting here.

Two of my friends who know movies and documentaries very well gave me their opinions...on why they thought it was great. I will share those opinions hopefully to shed some light on what The Stones were going for versus what some may of thought they got shorted on.

They noted that instead of CF "telling" the story of The Stones... they claim it put you IN the story. They both noted how it made you feel as if you were right there on the run with The Rolling Stones themselves. The objective of CF was not an academic history lesson on The Rolling Stones ... (although they said it told their story well enough) but was rather an "experience" as the viewer is placed right in the drivers seat along for the ride with The Stones throughout the crucial years of their existence.

That is the point of the film....to make you feel as though you are/went through everything with em. An exciting ride that places the viewer right in the front line with The Stones as my one buddy stated. THAT is why they chose this director. They did not want a total history lesson. They wanted a to tell the story as a thrilling ride so to speak and that, from my interpretation was what it was supposed to be.

My one buddy, who is a film maniac said it was how the film was directed but it did it subtlety, without it seeming purposeful, yet it was just as bold. He said it yet it made you feel like you rolled through the years right with em as a hangers on or something. He said he can't put his finger exactly how the film did it but it certainly did and as well he said it made you feel as though now you know the Stones ..."personally".... after watching it. He said it kind of made you say wow I am glad their OK. He also noted whether your a die-hard or a new-comer to The Stones catalog it is exciting and will immerse either today and down the road as well.

Now I have to view it. I do not have HBO and the night they watched it I had to work... however shortly I will give my assertions of the film.

Can't wait to see CH, the only thing with it from what I hear it only goes to the 80's where 25x5 was up to date at the time it was released which was Steel Wheels tour,  I too wish 25x5 will be released on DVD/Blu-Ray eventually.
