My PS3, Samsung LCD HDTV, Marantz amp and Infinit speakers await the Shine A Light DVD. And Yes, Blu Ray is better in pic and sound. It has more storage than the HD DVD.
I also found out, that Comcasts had such a weak HD signal in SF, it's like I got a new TV in Austin, the signal was so much better I practically shit myself.
Ooops, I take that back, I just shit myself, on purpose.

got a promo copy of Shine A Light in the mail today...it has the movie and bonus tracks but not the featurette that shows them rehearsing songs not played at either show and more interviews from over the years...guess they want you to buy the official DVD(I've preordered the Blu-Ray disc!)
It has incredible sounding Dolby 5.1 sound too! Grin

The soundtrack versions sound a lot better. Satisfaction gets very messy at the end of the movie.

damn straight. looking forward to the dts-hd master audio track, for sure...

speaking of stones brc (blu-ray content) - i cant wait for gimme shelter later this year; i hope that criterion digs up something extra to add to the title, besides superior audio and a new digital transfer, which are enough to get me to bite. anybody else, i would think there would be nothing new, but seeing how it is criterion, and this is one of the titles they are using to (finally) launch their foray into hd, i am holding out hope there might be a fresh, unseen, unheard nugget or two in package, as well (though roeg's walkabout is the only title that is announced to be getting revamped). we'll see in a few months...

It really is a fantastic movie. There are so many neat subtle treats in there. There was one shot where the camera circled the stage. And you can see a person hold his hand up to take a picture and you can actually hear the camera click.

Even though, I did enjoy the Shine A Light movie, I found all the supermodels in the audience distracting. Why do they get to sit FRONT-ROW-CENTER? Just because they're young and pretty? That is not cool! Not that Rolling Stone fans are old and ugly, I'm not saying that. But, when I have gone to the concerts, all the people look normal, average, like everyday people.

For me, as a REAL FAN of the music, it would have been real cool to see someone from ROCKS.OFF or even the official Rolling Stones website.

I would be like, "Oh My God! There's Pdog! And, there's Denton!" Something like that!

Plus, if they had gone for REAL FANS, instead of paid talent, the energy of the show would have been a lot better. And, the movie would have done a lot better at the theaters.

My humble opinion only.

For a doco on a 40year+ band, i think SAL did very well at the cinemas. How could you say it would do better if the models were not in the crowd? That's kind of silly, man.

As for Gimme Shelter, unless there is something like 50 minutes of extra stuff, i cant be bothered getting it in blu-ray. The Criterion dvd is fine with me.
