Title: the DVD and the single package
Post by: neko on July 01, 2002, 04:35:25 PM
so what does everyone think about the DVD?

I still love the song, even more now listening to it from actual CD, but the whole 'package' that comes with the single is pretty poor. the Dub mix is the most unimaginative thing they have ever released. and the instrumental isn't exactly exciting either. I was really looking forward to that DVD, but the 'a day at work' thing is just about as exciting as the instrumental. 2 minutes of 'making of' from the video with some narrator talking over it and 'explaining' the story. no attempt to make this any kind of special, interesting or at least witty, just boring. its nowhere even near the 'making of' from Poison.

But anyway, it was a great feeling today to walk into a shop and officially go to buy a 'new Prodigy single', I really celebrated that :)

To be honest I found the day in work thing kind of funny...its quite tongue N cheek humor adding the a real story book kids narrator to such a controversial video...

it reminded of when I was a kid, used to watch CITV at 4 O clock when Id come in from school, their be stupid story book readings on TV, But it was always the well spoken English accent that got me

but the package overall is piss poor.

yeh, maybe a little little bit funny but you wouldn't want to watch it more than once. while the video when i first saw it i wanted to watch it over and over again.

True, i dont think it was intended to be any sort of Making of the video...Its just a filler

i just cant over the DUB mix, its hilariously bad...without a doubt the worst B side EVER from the prodge

What the hell? you already got it? How come I didn't get it? Is this cause the US version is later? or what???

I bought the CDM (digipak), CDS (cardsleeve), DVD (digipak) and the 12". I haven't been able to watch the DVD yet since I don't have a proper player at the moment myself. What did surprise me though is that the DVD release here has a yellow cover. What color is yours Neko? I still need to buy the UK CDM (mine is on PIAS) as well as the NTSC DVD (mine is the UK PAL release). In which formats has Baby's Got A Temper been released in the UK? Till now here I've only seen the CDM as a digipak, but I think there will be one in jewelcase later on as well.
