Let There Be Rock:The Movie Update!!!
From Eddie Trunk's site, Qoute "2/24/10: Lot's of email about my post about the AC/DC film Let There Be Rock coming out on DVD. Had no idea I was saying something newsworthy at the time but guess I was as many are shocked this is finally happening and asking for confirmation. I have it folks and have watched it. Its amazing. What I have is an advance screener. When I have more news about when it's coming out I will let you know. I suspect a few months or so. The restoration is awesome looking and sounding. Looks like Warner is the company issuing it when it does hit stores. I wasn't told to keep this is a secret but judging by the reaction to my past posts this is major news to many fans of this incredible band." End Qoute Could It Be?! DV Freakin' D! It's 6:26 where I'm at right now,so the site hasn't got this week in AC/DC updated yet,we'll see later today though. -Cheers -Cheers
Wow this is sounding more positive that we may have this killer concert on DVD.
Interesting that they delayed the LTBR announcement for a week just so Eddie Trunk could put this obviously planted statement on his website. Looks like they were worried about the questions fans had last week about the level of remastering done on what we had been told was a completely damaged print and so they made sure Eddie Trunk specified how great it looks. I tell ya, Sony has a long way to go before they master this whole viral marketing concept. In almost every respect with just about everything they do (concerning AC/DC anyways), they get a FAIL!!! On the other hand, if there is actually going to be a newly restored LTBR release on DVD and Blu-Ray - woohoo!!! It's a great concert. They should release the film to small arthouses throughout North America, too. I'd love to see it at one of my city's small theatres with a fellow cult audience!
"Had no idea I was saying something newsworthy at the time..." Bullshit!!!
I hope that they release every recorded show from Paris together with the edited Let there be Rock Movie. So the package would be 1979 - Let there be Rock: Movie 2001 - Paris, Stade de France 2009 - Paris, Bercy and THIS would be really AWESOME!!!! (however i'm not sure if these tapes even exist...)
I hope we can get LTBR The Movie as stand alone edition. Because I rather dont see the fact to buy 2 other DVD´s I wouldn´t buy France 2001 because I already do have the munich official release and Ride on was on Plug me in. Then I say no to the 2009 concert, because there is a buenos aires release on its way, with the same setlist. ok besides dog eat dog ;)
What about the rest of the St. Albans footage as a bonus... doubtful but anything is possible
(after having not been on here for a while) Hmm...I know it seems doubtful, but wonder if T.N.T. was even shot cause it'd be nice to see it put in. Otherwise, I hope this isn't another Strap It On.
Maybe the whole story about the masters being lost,or burned was fake and the guys where waiting for Bon's 30th death Anniversary... Possible,not probable I'd like to know why it's taken so long if that's not the reason
Hopefully they include live versions of If You Want Blood You've Got It, Dog Eat Dog and Problem Child from the HTH Tour as extras on the DVD.
@ DDaMT I like the idea. Maybe the have a film recording of the Hammersmith show aswell, where they did played "Baby Please dont go" and "Its a long way to the top" @ flickofthethunderdeeds I do expect only one thing for that remastered DVD: lots of overdubed stuff and probably different scene cuts. Or maybe just maybe. There really was a copy of the master tapes that were on an other place. We can guess all night long if we want. But only the release date of the DVD will give us our true anwsers.
Hope it has what Dirty Deeds and Money Talks said and some TV adds and promotional videos for the Movie like this and @Patrick_Ronacher I'd say they'll have dubs for some of the video if it's not in good enough shape,and I bet it'll be re-edited I hope it's released soon if it's gonna happen
I (like everybody) am waiting and excited to see what the level of restoration they actually have done. Also would be cool to know what he source for the tapes they are using are. Maybe there was a 1:1 master transfer done along time ago? I guess only time will tell, but it is great news. Also hope there is some kick ass bonus features.
well maby they have stumbled upon this while in australia :) http://colsearch.nfsa.afc.gov.au/nfsa/search/display/display.w3p;adv=yes;group=;groupequals=;holdingType=;page=0;parentid=;query=Number%3A43351;querytype=;rec=0;resCount=10 look under holdings where it says: Preservation Material Colour Film 35mm BTW, what this is supposed to be? have to admit that the picture does look a bit better however http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=34h5mK1bd3w&feature=player_embedded
@mkalic I saw that a while ago on youtube,the user (ACDCarchives) Just touched up a VHS version,he said it was for a video editing class or something like that in school.Said,I just color corrected it and did some other things.Technically not HD,but I agree it looks much better than some I've seen. I swear I almost shit myself when I first saw it "assuming it was real" Haha shame on me for assuming
Lol, the trailer says "Better Than A Concert". I don't think so. Still, this would be awesome to have on DVD. I wonder when they will release the Black Ice DVD, my guess is after the tour is over.
RNR Damnation: Come on, Sony wouldn't go to that length to BS us for no apparent reason. You sound like one of those 9/11 conspiracy theorists...
Out of topic but do you still think you were attacked by terrorists?
Seriously,are we really gonna go there.... How bout not? Yea,lets go with NOT
Ye see if i care.Were ok with Muslims,Jewish,Christians,Buddhists etc in Greece so.... But it's was a funny thing to read.Ok let's skip it.
Not a shot at you or anything,but I'd rather discuss the band
I think this DVD is going to be great. If there's something I think really needs to be dubbed, is Cliff's bass in Live Wire. Either that, or correct it! It's way off tuned, and you can hear him tune it before Shot Down In Flames
So are we Sap, we realize that not all Muslims are terrorists.
Ok,I read his comment wrong... I have no problem with any of those races/religions... I believe you're following a stereotype,not all Americans are that way...
suicidehummer it has nothing to do with Muslims.And from Muslims point of view they realize that not all Americans are terrorists. But what i was talking about was that you think you were attacked by terrorists on 9/11. Anyway let drop it cuz this is not the site to talk about it.
flickofthethunderdeeds i have been to the states so i know a small amount of what is going on. I have a lot of sympathy for average people try to make a living but politics,gun dealers who create the fear of Irak,Iran etc so they can profit...Well you should probably take action and make them have AC/DC change the setlist...No sorry wrong thoughs.
I've read somewhere that the USA goverment did it themselves because they couldn't afford to take care of them anymore, and they wanted a reason so they could invade middle-orient It's not what I think, but its a crazy idea by someone out there
Why are you talking about terrorism on an AC/DC forum? ;)
On wikipedia it even say's "Reportedly remastered for a DVD release in 2010" Of course,that's wikipedia,lol AC/DC.com needs to go a head and confirm it with some details on what we're getting... Damned liars "As for that announcement we talked about,stay tuned til' next week" So freakin' annoying
Believe me we are more close and friendly with you so called "enemies".Anyway i'm not here to shake you up so this is over from my part. DVD as me and suicide said...Europe.
Maybe they haven't confirmed it yet because they have a website like acdcbacktracks ready for it. Something like acdcletthereberock.com which asks for an admin username and password to it
They should have announced it already,I doubt they'll do a countdown again.I stayed up all night for the backtracks countdown,even recorded the damn thing,lol I was pretty disappointed............
that was you? I saw that video on "Related Videos" a thousand times but never watched it. I was up until 1 am in a school night to see what it was, and that same day, at 0 am the tickets for the Buenos Aires shows were at sale, so it was a pretty busy night!
Sure was,lol Stayed up all night(school night actually) Waiting for...Backtracks,hit and miss I suppose. I only recorded because I thought some people might have wanted to see it but couldn't.Even though it's nothing special,just a count down.
"It's one of my most popular videos though" lol!!
I know right? lol Basically a stopwatch set to AC/DC,haha
