AngelBlue_ Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 via Broadway Idiot ~~~ "Back in the mix with Greg McCleary dropping in the audio for the new 11-yr-old Billie Joe archive sequence, before mastering the Dolby Surround 5.1 mix. It sounds awesome!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon Benjamin Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 This is pure selfishness speaking but... I kind of hate it when things get a lot of publicity (whether they ask for it or not) and then aren't released to the public. Like, a few months ago we heard that this existed and that the cast got to see it and there was a private screening at a university in Indiana, and although I was really hopeful, that kind of low-key murmuring of the film made me feel like "OK, this isn't going to be released to the public and I just have to accept that." But once you start showing it at festivals and releasing trailers that get picked up by Perez Hilton (I know, that's not Green Day nor the filmmakers' doing), that's when I start to feel entitled and needy and demand a DVD release How the hell did i not know there was a screening in Indiana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momoluvGD Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Am I the only one is afraid the documentary might be in replacement for American Idiot musical movie? I was really looking foward to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I the only one hoping the documentary might be in replacement for American Idiot musical movie? I was really not looking forward to that And is it just me or were there parts in the interviews where Billie finally looked like he was... old? Which is funny because he looks younger now then he did then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerardsangel4977 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Am I the only one is afraid the documentary might be in replacement for American Idiot musical movie? I was really looking foward to that. It's definitely not. This would've been filming before the film rights for AI had even been optioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was really not looking forward to that And is it just me or were there parts in the interviews where Billie finally looked like he was... old? Which is funny because he looks younger now then he did then. They better make that American Idiot movie too, dammit! And have Billie play St. Jimmy in it! Are the parts you talking about the parts where he has a beard? Because I think that scruff makes guys look older than they are. I hate beards so... It wouldn't surprise me if that was the reason for the illusion of age on Billie. I want to see all of his pretty face all the time. No scruff!

Can you sneak me in inside your purse?! I wish so much that I could go to this and to Green Day's concert! I do have a cousin living in Texas, but she's nowhere near Austin and it would be such short notice anyway. Plus I don't have the money for airfare or tickets right now. Fuck my life. btw, sorry for being such a whiney bitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy's Tonsils Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Companies dont usually put in all this work and effort into something just to show it to one room full of people... I'm sure it will be released in some shape or form because if theres money to b made theyd be idiotic not too. It looks pretty well invested too, not just some mash of clips for the sake of nostalgia for the cast and crew. And besides theyre already advertising! *cough* Heart Like a Hand Grenade *cough* Which may or may not be released in 2014? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schlappy Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 *cough* Heart Like a Hand Grenade *cough* Which may or may not be released in 2014? that wasnt a produced by a company though was it? it was that dudes project, i forget his name. i used to want it to be released but now im just pissed off about it. fuck it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warner Bros would've released it, if it had been finished sooner. John took a long time to cut it down to whatever the final edit was. When he finished, we all got excited, thinking it would be released, but that's when Warner said they preferred to wait until the 10th anniversary. I guess they felt they had missed the optimum window of relevance or some other crazy business reason But I know we kept asking for it, and John, supposedly, kept fighting for it's release. The special screening we eventually got seemed more a compromise on Warner's part to get all parties involved to stfu But Broadway Idiot's circumstances are completely different. The fact that it's being shown at a film festival and has been getting a bunch of press already, even more than Cuatro has, says that the makers clearly intend for this thing to come out. And if the film is as well-received today as it's buzz has thus far warranted, I'm sure a DVD release of some kind will eventually follow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

X-Kid-X Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 This is really cool but... Are we NOT getting a movie (not a documentary) based on the album?

I'm just bitter Anyhow, I actually decided to ask John Roecker about it and it's being released next year, so woo! Anyway, to get back on topic...haha. This is really cool but...
