The only new feature is that it's in Blu-ray, I already got it, I kind of wished they would add some more concert footage that wasn't in it before, but the Ya Yas new release has got that, there still must be more concert footage.

CRITERION has always put out great products...The Beastie Boys collection from about 2000 or so was so amazingly put together...it makes Four Flicks a total joke!!! The BB DVD was so interactive...I seriously thought that the world of DVD would never be the same again!!!

Not only designing your own setlist (a mere pebble in the 4 flicks pond)...but also...but some TRUE Rarities and:

   * Over 100 video angles and audio tracks, switchable at anytime during playback
   * More than 40 remixes
   * A cappella versions
   * Rare still photographs
   * Storyboards
   * Interview with the cast of "Sabotage"
   * The world-premiere director's cut of Nathanial Hornblower's "Intergalactic" spin-off "The Robot vs. the Octopus Monster Saga"

From AMAZON:

Beastie Boys fans with a firm command of DVD angle and subtitle features will find the Criterion Collection's version of the group's Video Anthology a must. Augmenting 18 videos with more than 100 camera angles and remixes old and new, the 2-disc set brings Criterion's attention to detail and quality to bear on some of the most hilarious and visually creative music clips ever. In addition to hits such as "So What'cha Want," "Intergalactic," and "Shake Your Rump," the set also includes such lesser-known cuts as "Ricky's Theme" and "Netty's Girl." Finally, director comments, a mock talk-show appearance by "the cast of Sabotage" (the Beasties' spoof of '70s cop shows), and behind-the-scenes mastermind Nathanial Hörnblowér's "The Robot vs. the Octopus Monster Saga" lend further insight into the Beasties' creative process with their collaborators. Long may they tape. --Rickey Wright


I saw Critirion and had to chime in...

If you own the BB Anthology...you know what i mean...wish the Stones or any other band would put this much effort towards a DVD project...and not just a re-release w/ a booklet and an order form to join the fan club!

The blu-ray of Gimme Shelter is hampered by the fact the movie was filmed in 16mm which makes the picture kind of grainy looking...not even blu-ray could make it look any better!:)
