I'm married to a psycho therapist. Finally, a movie we're both dying to see.

I'm sure it's better than that Moore trash that's out there....

 

I'm really excited to see it. I have been a not so loyal fan of Metallica. I think they are great, their music is great. I was put off by them when they got into the whole Napster thing--anyway I'm excited to see a bunch of millionaires sitting around talking about their problems...

At first I thought it sounded awful, Metallica getting touchy feely, but after reading a bit more about it, it does sound genuinely interesting, knda like the 'year and a half in the life of' videos they put out years ago, but more in-depth. Doubt it'll get a cinema release over here tho :(

 

But Micheal Moore has and I'll be off to see that tomorrow, sorry diss...!

Yeah, I was looking at the overseas releases and didn't see the UK on the list. :P

 

Maybe it will be eventually.

Limited release in London is probably the best we can hope for, it'll be out on DVD soon enough tho...

True, plus you know it will also have additional footage.

I'm TOTALLY going to see that. Supposed to be hilarious.

 

What is interesting is that they did all this therapy and interventions, etc. and then made a really shitty record.

Never actually bothered listening to it, lets hope the film made the whole process worthwhile...!

Yeah, I thought St. Anger's quality was pretty bad too. But none the less, I look forward to sripping them of their rock star image. Removing the Holywood aspect from anything is a good thing.

 

Just praying for relatively few Spinal Tap moments in this documentary.

 

And where are the Colorado release listings?!? Grr!

Maybe they'll put it on the IFC Cable channel :thu:

 

James Hetfield clean and sober?

Maybe that's what went off the track with St Anger ;)

 

(Calm down...just a joke.....not dissing him for cleaning up his act...(good thing) but sounds like they had too much on their individual plates :rolleyes: ) to even think about an album!

I'll probably be the last person on the forum to see it.

Indi films like this only press a limited number of copies of the film. For a 16mm, 2 hour print, it runs around $30k. The film will probably gross a total of $20 million. So you can see how doing a mass release like Spider-Man would quickly destroy their profit potential. Even getting one print into every major city at once, would cost over a million just to copy.

 

True Indi film makers who can only afford 1-2 prints, tend to travel with the film, city to city, trying to promote it. The cool thing, is usually on opening night, you know the director is somewhere in the theater with you. The downside is, that once a print has been used for a few months, it gets pretty beat up; scratched, taped, torn, etc. Come November, it's going to look pretty rough unless they fund another print.
