Shine a Light (Scorsese/Stones) - July 29th

Via DVDActive:
Paramount Home Entertainment has announced Shine a Light which takes a career-spanning look at the Rolling Stones, and includes concert footage from their "A Bigger Bang" tour. The 2 hour Martin Scorsese documentary will be available to own from the 29th July. Extras will include a behind the scenes featurette, and 4 music videos (Undercover Of The Night, Paint It Black, Little T And A, I'm Free).

A Blu-ray release will also be available with the above extras, and 5.1 Dolby TrueHD and 5.1 DTS Surround soundtracks.
Coverart:


Caught this on IMAX at the Metreon and was surprised at how much I enjoyed it, seeing as how it's, what, the fourth or fifth Stones concert movie? Though it could probably be due to Scorsese and the band playing several of my favorite songs...definitely going to get this.

Hey, if you can survive it in IMAX, you can survive it on Blu-Ray.

I agree with Lemmy.

Saw this last night, actually. Thought it was horrid.

The song selection was great, but there was way too many slow songs all in a row.

The mastering was flat and the mixing was VERY uneven. Maybe that was the point, as it was supposed to emphasize whatever musician was on the screen, but as a concert movie, it was incredibly hard to listen to and incredibly distracting.
