It was brilliant.
I could only imagine what it looked like on the big screen.

The colors, the songs, the vibe. All classic, brilliant, Prince.

If I have any complaint at all, it's that he dubbed much of it.

It's a concert movie, but most of the performance footage was filmed on the soundstage at Paisley Park, so it's not strictly a 'live concert' movie.

don't judge me by saying i'm hating which i'm not ..just answering someone's question of y 4 the longest in this thread u were making blow by blow commentary which u could have done in ONE post instead of 25. but that does not compute 4 u i guess

I saw it in the movie theatre twice, and it did play on Encore HD a few years ago, so an HD transfer exists that could be put to blu-ray.

The SOTT concert video is amazing. One of my favs. I wish I had've been fortunate enough to be there. Damn!

I didn't say you did Just answering your question.....

"i still don't know if it is a movie?..concert?..or i guess it could be both."

The dubbing is too bad. By the time the movie gets to It's Gonna Be a Beautiful Night, Prince had totally given up on even trying to pretend he wasn't lipsynching.

Then again, the screaming in Forever in My Life seems real (or at least his coughing reaction to the screaming).

Efan said:

picture quality at that point seems different as well.

Imago said:

It was great on the big screen. Too bad I only saw it once in the theater.

Efan said:

That DOES seem real! When I watch that I forget it's dubbed, IS that part definitely dubbed? Some of it is live footage isn't it? That song's amazing anyway!

the last three nights of the tour was when the audio was recorded, and i have all 3 nights. forever in my life was as it's audio counterpart is. the shots themselves were primarily done at paisley park

Sorry, I'm not understanding what you mean. Are you saying that Forever in My Life is lipsynched in the movie and that he was acting (or re-creating) the coughing bit?

yes it was lipsynched cause the video footage shot 4 the concerts were very rough so he re shot the concert at paisley park but kept the audio. the version i have of forever in my life from one of these concerts indicate that it was either spliced 2gether from another per4mance or the verses were re recorded from scratch, while the "gospel" segment was from the actual concert but edited 4 length
