Pearl Jam - Under Review DVD

edited July 2010 in The Porch
So I saw this last night. Totally unauthorized, and to be honest pretty crap.

I enjoyed it at the beginning, just because I have never really seen a PJ documentary before, but by the end the same talking heads kept appearing and only said what we all already know.

There were snippets of the Even Flow video, a few Saturday night Live performances, and loads of footage taken from Touring Band 2000.

As normal, they spend ages (almost half the length of the doc) on Ten, and by the time they are done with Yield they absolutely fly through Binaural-Backspacer.

Don’t waste your money on this, but might be worth renting it.

    Same thoughts! I was really disappointed!

    Seeing that Pearl Jam & 10club didn't say anything about this release, it pulled me away from buying this DVD. Now we know what it's all about, I probably rent it or download a torrent of it in the day's ahead.

    Wow! If it's not worth it I'll forget about it then. But if I get it for free I might as well watch it, someday.

    The Under Review DVD came out June 21st. http://www.play.com/DVD/DVD/4-/15175041 ... duct.html# . Though amazon.com has a release date of Sept 21. http://www.amazon.com/Pearl-Jam-Under-R ... 147&sr=8-1

    As for the new film http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1417592/ . I wonder which movie company this will be disturbed by. Imagine if it's by Sony Pictures? The Andrew Wood film is being released by Universal Studios this August.

    Can someone with the know-how upload the Under Review one somewhere?! Or even cut it up and YouTube it!? I don't wanna buy it, the band don't make profit from it, so I ain't payin' for it.
