I never listened and watched anymore to the dvd I bought when it was released, because it realy was a let down, but the blu ray is excellent with great picture and sound.

I watched it the first of januari and it surprised me that I liked it that much after all those years I never wanted to visited it again.

It's a huge difference if you watch the dvd, or the blu ray. It realy is.
And you have to watch it on a big tv screan, that realy helps.

Mick Jagger (2008):
It's a film to watch in a movie house or on DVD. So it's got its own aesthetic.

So in other words, Mick is saying this is the same as any other film? lol. How else would you watch a movie? I get that you say whatever when you're trying to do promo, but that's one of the more hilarious things I've seen. If he had just said movie house I understand what he means, but when you throw in DVD its like "right, so its a movie you watch at home or a theater, like any other movie in history cause those are the two ways to watch films."

He obviously was aware of folks like me who still used VHS all the way up until around 2015 when my last piece of machinery broke down

Finally managed to sort out a bluray player and bought the bluray version of SAL for 3 bucks the same day. Very interesting to get the proper speed on a screen finally. Much more enjoyable overall than the semi tone higher version and more enjoyable than the new Shepherd's Bush film (that split screen destroys the whole experience me thinks)

People slagging off this release should be happy and thankful we got Scorsese mixing things up with Stones.

Why should we be happy Scorsese is mixing things up with the Stones? It's a dreadful gig, turned into a dreadful movie. They tried to produce something that just wasn't there, and the movie just shows exactly that. They needed to reinvent themselves in 2012 before they regained something of their old sparkle.

Mathijs, I adore your observations usually but how could any dismiss the Black Tele Custom with Nosferatical Keith and one just hear that Sidewinding crackin up against the Twin Reverb and yet there are 10 more beautiful numbers finishing with Dice as the 10th as it ALWAYS should be! Have you tried the Blu Ray? Ain't nothing like that sloppy DVD translation I tell ya!
