Katarina. Posted March 27, 2009 Posted March 27, 2009 true. although lets face it, we are awesome.So true.. Lol xD
Nimrod99 Posted March 27, 2009 Posted March 27, 2009 I'm all for the Green Day Liberation Front. But, I patiently await Andres response first. I'd even be happy with the label responding something like: we WILL release the DVD, although it will be in a few years after the new album has come out, and after the touring has wrapped up."... I know, I'm just dreaming. Don't spoil it dammit. lol.
Kryssi. Posted March 27, 2009 Posted March 27, 2009 Nice thinking to all of you. Indeed, we have to go about this in a smart, adult way and not come across as hormonal teenages dying to see a movie because it has two wangs in it. I was reading through all of the new comments that have been popping up in this thread over the past three hours and there's been some solid ideas. Someone mentioned about a few people writing a draft and then we'll go from there. Hopefully once that part is done, we'll have a strong argument on our side and make Warner think twice about not releasing it and letting John showcase his masterpiece onto the world.
Nobody_Likes_You Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 I signed, but i highly doubt, that this will help us. I think even a letter won't help. sry for my negative energy guys.
Saint of Saints Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 I signed the petition, I couldn't make it to the priemiere and I really wanna see it.

IscoredWaddlesgoals Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 Apparently John's posted this on his facebook:Okay this was on the corner of my street- I was walking and this car smashes next to me! And then this kid stubbed his knee and made more of a deal then the guy in the car- I wonder if I got hit THEN WOULD WARNER BROTHERS PUT THE FUCKING MOVIE OUT??? hahahahI'm all over this thread like clap in a brothel :wink:
The Disappearing Boy Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 that suggests it is warner that is stopping the movie. not john.or did we already know that? i can't remember now!
IscoredWaddlesgoals Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 that suggests it is warner that is stopping the movie. not john.or did we already know that? i can't remember now! I think it is Warner's that's blocking the movie. Apparently, they don't want to distract attention away from the new album, why is slightly ironic seeing as though they're re-releasing all the band's last albums (including AI). I think we knew this, but I have got a memory like a goldfish.
Kryssi. Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 Warner obviously want people to focus on the new record than American Idiot.

amelialoh1992 Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 I signed it, I forced all my friends to sign it, I even used my parents email accounts to sign it.
The Disappearing Boy Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 I signed it, I forced all my friends to sign it, I even used my parents email accounts to sign it. now thats what i call commitment to the cause. i like it.
IscoredWaddlesgoals Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 if we can convince warner that lots of people will buy the dvd, which means they will get a fair but richer...i think we'll have them convinced!John wants it released. I assuming the band want it released. The fans want it released. How much more convincing do they want ?

I know, I'm just dreaming. Don't spoil it dammit. lol.I don't want to have to wait years Or at least, no more than one, but FIVE? That's ricockulous, especially considering we've waited so damn long already.Warner obviously want people to focus on the new record than American Idiot.I think it will just draw more attention to Green Day, period, thereby increasing record sales.But they know more about that crap than I do. I know it all boils down to money, though...
KerplunkxCreak Posted March 28, 2009 Author Posted March 28, 2009 So...At least we know for sure that John want the movie out lol Anyways, the only thing we can do is wait, but...I'll bet that with a letter..I mean, when I opened this thread, I jsut wanted to know what you guys thought about that, and I'm seeing you're feeling the same as me WE NEED TO WATCH THIS MOVIE LOL
Kryssi. Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 Hey, I was just thinking.... at the moment, over here in the UK (i don't know if this is the same as the US and everywhere else) but Kings of Leon's record 'Only By The Night' has been out for a fair few months, hasn't it? And they're going on tour again in June.. and they're getting a lot of media attention, and this week their older records have been re-released and put into the charts. So, that's still revenue they're getting from newer fans buying the older records they did. As they've had a lot of new interest into the band with the new record.American Idiot should be used in the same way, I think they should release it... they really shouldn't have a reason to be cockblocking the release... because new AND old fans would want to get this as it's merchandise and everybody loves merchandise.
KerplunkxCreak Posted March 28, 2009 Author Posted March 28, 2009 yeah, i also think so butyou know? it's warner stuff
Hermione Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 Apparently John's posted this on his facebook:Okay this was on the corner of my street- I was walking and this car smashes next to me!

Must be so frustrating to have done all that work and still not be allowed to release it.Hey, I was just thinking.... at the moment, over here in the UK (i don't know if this is the same as the US and everywhere else) but Kings of Leon's record 'Only By The Night' has been out for a fair few months, hasn't it?

And as someone pointed out in the other thread, Warner are currently bloody re-releasing all their albums on vinyl, including American Idiot. I'm not sure how that's any less "distracting" than a DVD.
Kryssi. Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 Unless they're using that lie as a cover up for another reason, or just aren't being totally truthful with people... but then again, they're a huge corporation and they can do whatever they please "/
Kryssi. Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 Warner seem unprofessional in a way regarding to this movie.
