DVD Reviews of Beastie Boys Video Anthology (The Criterion Collection)

DVD Review: Homebrewer
Summary: 5 Stars

First off, I want to tell you that this DVD is Unbelievable! (It's packed with extras, over 100 video angles & audio tracks switchable at any time during playback). Everything I've ever seen that has 'The Criterion Collection' written on it, is beautifully put together. Way to go (Kudos) to another Awesome DVD collection.

Here you have more than 40 remixes by The Beastie Boys, Bentley Rhythm Ace, Fred C., Mario Caldato, Joey Chavez, Colleone & Webb, Count Bass D, DJ Cheapshot, DJ J-Rocc & DJ Truly OdD, DJ Moe Love, DJ Strictnine & Paranorm, Dub Hackers, Egon & Jon Doe, Evidence, Fatboy Slim, Kut Masta Kurt, Large Professor, Latch Brothers, Madlib, Micky Finn & Special K, Moby, Mum's The Word, Mike Nardone, OD, DJ Paul Nice, Peanut Butter Wolf, Shawn J. Period & Wizdom Life, Prince Paul, Prisoners Of Technology, Prunes, J Rawls, Sam Sever & Johnathan Hoffman, Soul Assassins & last but not least 'T-Ray'.

There is also : Audio Commentary by The Beastie Boys & The Video Directors, Including Adam Bernstein, Evan Bernard, Tamra Davis, Spike Jonze, Ari Marcopoulos & David Perez.

You also get The World-Premeire Director's Cut of Nathanial Hornblower's Intergalactic Spin-Off 'The Robot vs. The Octopus Monster Saga'. There are interviews with the cast of Sabotage, Still Photographs & A Collectible Poster (That is Double-Sided). Get the Hint, This 2-DVD Set is loaded with extras.

The coolest part about this DVD set is how 'You' the end-user can navigate through this DVD, the way 'You' want to. Example.. Each disc is divided into two sections. Section one is The Videos in Sequence. Section two let's 'You' watch The Videos with Supplements. Back to 'Section One' all of the videos are presented to 'You' in back to back order, as they were placed on the DVD. They are presented to 'You' in the highest possible image quality & contains Band & Director commentaries (They are in 2.0 Stereo or 5.1 Surround Audio). You can use the 'Audio/Subtitles' menu to select audio or subtitles at any time while watching these videos. Now on to Section Two (The coolest thing I've ever seen). Here, each video is presented individually with a selection of Supplementary Material (Additional video footage is available on Alternate Angles). Remixes & Alternate versions of songs are available on additional audio tracks. See below for examples.

On Disc 1

The song - 'Intergalactic'

Has these 'Video Angles'
1) Final Cut
2) Slo-Mo Lip Sync
3) Fast-Mo Lip Sync
4) Vogue
5) Platform
6) Spin Cam
7) The Jogger
8) The Scientists
9) Officer Side Streets

And it has these 'Audio Tracks'
1) Album Version w/ Sound Effects
2) Colleone & Webb Remix 1
3) Colleone & Webb Remix 2
4) Sever & Hoffman Remix
5) Prisoners of Technology Remix
6) A Cappella Version

(With Video Angles & Audio Tracks you get to choose which Video Angle & which Audio Track combo you would like to make). Like I said earlier, "The coolest part about this DVD set is how 'You' the end-user can navigate through this DVD" (It is way Cool!) I especially love how 'You' can pick a combo & change it the next time you watch the DVD. Example : You pick 'Intergalactic' 'Fast-Mo Lip Sync' (Video Angle) with 'Colleone & Webb Remix 1' (Audio Track) & the next time you watch the DVD, you can pick 'The Jogger' (Video Angle) with 'Sever & Hoffman Remix' (Audio Track). It's an endless number of combo's that 'You' get to create.

Note : Some songs like 'Something's Got To Give' have no additional Video Angles or Audio Tracks available.

Another Note : Some songs like 'Hey Ladies' have Audio Tracks, but no additional Video Angles available.

Yet Another Note : With this DVD, you get a 'Operations Manual' (Don't lose this, you will need this to guide yourself through the DVD), which helps you navigate through this DVD. It not only shows you every song in order that it is on the DVD, but it shows you if additional Video Angles or Audio Tracks are available & what they are. It also has an icon legend with pictures of objects next to each song. It shows you if there are Alternate Angles, Remixes, Additional Program, Storyboards or Still Photos.

Let me leave you with a few lyrics from one of the greatest bands on the planet! Let my boys speak out with their lyrics!

All you Trekkies & TV addicts. Don't mean to diss. Don't mean to bring static. All you Klingons, in your Grandmas house. Grab your backstreet friend & get loud. Blowin' doors off hinges. I'll grab you with the pinchers & no I didn't retire. I'll snatch you up with the needle nose pliers.

I'm a lumber jack DJ Adrock. If you try to knock me, you'll get mocked. I'll stir fry you in my wok. Your knees'll start shaking & your fingers pop. Like a pinch on the neck of Mr. Spock.

I looked out the window & seen his bald head. I ran to the fridge & pulled out an egg. Scoped him with my scopes, he had no hair. Launched that shot & he was caught out there. Saw the convertible driving by, loaded up the slingshot & let one fly. He went for his to find he didn't have one. Put him in check correct with my egg gun. The egg, a symbol of life. Go inside your house & bust out your wife. Pulled out the jammy he thought it was a joke. The trigger I pulled his face, the yoke. Reached in his pocket took all his cash. Left my man standing with an egg moustache. Suckers they come a dime a dozen. And when I say dozen you know what I'm talking about boyee. Yeh, that's right, I'm The Egg Man!

****Now if you are still reading this, and you haven't clicked on the 'Purchase ASAP Button', there must be something wrong with you. I'm (NOT) making all this up people, this Puppy is loaded & everyone should already own this. I think I'm going to purchase 2/3 more of these DVD's (In case I wear mine out, from watching it Sooooo many times, & each time you can watch a different version of an Audio Track with Video Angles, to enhance each viewing). Enjoy Folks, & once you purchase this, don't say I didn't warn you on how Awesome this DVD really is. Thanks & A Big Kudos to 'Criterion' for putting together a Beautiful DVD (For The Beastie Boys), they definately deserve 'Criterion'!

Description of Beastie Boys Video Anthology (The Criterion Collection)

DVD VIDEO ANTHOLOGY - DVD Movie
Beastie Boys fans with a firm command of DVD angle and subtitle features will find the Criterion Collection's version of the group's Video Anthology a must. Augmenting 18 videos with more than 100 camera angles and remixes old and new, the 2-disc set brings Criterion's attention to detail and quality to bear on some of the most hilarious and visually creative music clips ever. In addition to hits such as "So What'cha Want," "Intergalactic," and "Shake Your Rump," the set also includes such lesser-known cuts as "Ricky's Theme" and "Netty's Girl." Finally, director comments, a mock talk-show appearance by "the cast of Sabotage" (the Beasties' spoof of '70s cop shows), and behind-the-scenes mastermind Nathanial Hörnblowér's "The Robot vs. the Octopus Monster Saga" lend further insight into the Beasties' creative process with their collaborators. Long may they tape. --Rickey Wright
