Off: Pink Pompeii DVD

[chris at HAWKLORD.UKLINUX.NET]

Hi ya,

I've had the Pink Floyd DVD a while and watched the main title a few
times, that being the directors cut.

Now I am watching for first time the original version (on same dvd) and
its soooo much better!!!!!   For all the cga and so, the directors cut
just don't do the same thing for me.   The original rocks, dig that dog!
Wish my mutts could sing like that, mind I play them a Del Detmar
bootleg and they sing like hell....  Howling to remove themselves from
what they know to be 15 minuites of one chord with reverb (only after an
hour of other noises designed to irritate mutts)

Yea well, original version excellent - directors cut just don't get me
there at all.   Thank what/who ever they put the original version on the
dvd!  Its a classic, its art, and don't ever mess with classic art cause
ya can't better perfection.   The original Pompeii is a perfect vision.
  Whatever happened in the directors cut seems to have removed all
emotion and feeling from the film.   Its not just the inclusion of
interviews that destroys the feeling, the computer generated animation
is totally out of place, you don't notice how out of place till you see
the original again.

Directors cut is desecration ov sacred temple of (All {alchemical - not
all}) chemical influences.

Man that dog can sing the blues better than any of mine!!!
