An envelope with "Billie Joe" written on it, and a lot of song cover art/DVDs from.. Remember Whatever - the American Idiot recordings. For some reason I really love that name. I'm trying not to get excited about this.. And John's comments on that picture are priceless: "Sorry I meant Billy Joel 6 hours of his shitty music" "but will he also love my drunken DVD covers that is the real question" "Oh Dew- I spent the summer going though all 300 hours of footage I did of Green Day for a the DVD extras for Fart like a hand grenade- and I came up with a 6 hour opus. I am not one to do small things" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annie, get your gun Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 ...So, I was completely wrong! I thought that HLAHG and R-W (AIR) were the same thing (that John changed the name of the movie) Now I understand, R-W it's just like bonus material, or something? OMG, I want to have this on dvd seriously!... We want! We need it! We take it! Please just finish the damn project, we wanna see everything about American Idiot!!!!!!!

Daughter.of.Rage.and.Love Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 I love the title as well. And the covers. I generally like his art/style though so that's no surprise, haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tubbie Head Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 I don't think they will approve 6 hours of extras.. But it would be realllyyy awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katarina. Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 They better approve it. I'm sure people will buy Heart Like a Hand Grenade once it's released. So Idk what they are waiting for. Yeah, other than releasing Green Day's live CD(/DVD).. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Annie, get your gun Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 ... Now it feels a little bittersweet. Why if they let him film the whole process, they don't want this documental come out? What is the problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marlon_GD Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 Just a funny observation, the American Idiot / JOS recordings, are misspelt It says "Remeber Whatever" But I do like the name Remember Whatever! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hermione Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 They've never really approved HLAHG. Why would they want to add on another six hours? My thoughts exactly. And if they have tentatively approved HLAHG (to come out next year as he says), I hope pushing for these 6 hours of extras isn't going to mess it up and mean nothing comes out at all. Why not just get the film out while he has the chance instead of pushing for all this extra stuff hmm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParadoxAndPlaid Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 I love John and all, and I do think he cares; but sometimes I feel we're being led on a bit with the HLAHG fiasco. The vague updates, hype and promises just feel so...meh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not just get the film out while he has the chance instead of pushing for all this extra stuff hmm? This is exactly my fear too. I don't want his chances of releasing HLAHG get ruined because he's pushing to release the 6 hrs footages on top of that. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to see all of that and I'm sure he wants it out as much as we do, especially after all the hard work he's been through, but I don't get why they would approve this if the movie itself hasn't come out yet after what..4 years of waiting! The only thing we can do is wait and see. I just hope we will get concrete news next time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing we can do is wait and see. I just hope we will get concrete news next time The fact that he's pushing for this extra stuff instead of just grabbing the opportunity to finally get the film out makes me wonder how "definite" it really is that it's coming out. Why jeopardise the chance he's been waiting for and working on for so long? Makes me think it hasn't really been given the go ahead for next year, or that it's more of a maybe than a yes. But like you say we can only wait and see. I'm not gonna get my hopes up and that way I'll be very very happy if something does happen . One thing I do know for sure is John does really want the film out and is trying to get it out - it's just the facts of what's actually happening with it that seem rather iffy.

farley drexel hatcher Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 I still say that if he really, really just wanted people to see the film, he could get it out there. It wouldn't be hard to 'accidentally' leak it, it could be as easy as leaving a link open by mistake or sending an email to the 'wrong' person and he wouldn't even have to be blamed. Either way, if he simply wanted us to see it, like he says, he could make it happen. I still think he's banking on this making him a lot of money and that's why he's pushing so hard for DVD and theatres. Just my opinion on the matter.

I've always held pretty much the exact same opinion as you about this ... But as someone else once argued, the dude could still get in massive shit for leaking it, even if it was 'accidental'. Warner would sue his dick and balls right off in court. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuzz Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 I'm excited for this to finally be making some progress. All i know is that there are plans to release this, I don't know when exactly, but I do think it will be. I love the idea of 6 hours of extras, that would be incredible. I don't think John is jeopardizing anything by wanting to put the extras. At worst they say "No" for the extras, that doesn't mean they can't do any of it. And if they say yes, then fucking brilliant. I still say that if he really, really just wanted people to see the film, he could get it out there. It wouldn't be hard to 'accidentally' leak it, it could be as easy as leaving a link open by mistake or sending an email to the 'wrong' person and he wouldn't even have to be blamed.

I still think he's banking on this making him a lot of money and that's why he's pushing so hard for DVD and theatres. Just my opinion on the matter. There's no way he could leak this and not have it come back to him, considering he's pretty much the only person who has control over the handling of the film right now. It'd be pretty easy for them to track it back and he runs the potential of REALLY annoying the band. If they asked him not to release it yet for some reason, then I'm sure he's cool enough to realize that their friendship is more important than leaking stuff out to their fans. At the end of the day, it's them and their material, and they have the right to ask him not to release it. I barely know the guys (personally) and when they ask me not to post something, i don't even second-guess it. Not out of fear for getting sued, but simply out of respect. I can only imagine how i'd feel if I was actually their friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farley drexel hatcher Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 I'm not saying he would do it, or that I even expect him to, obviously. What I guess I'm saying is that there would probably be a much simpler way of getting it out there that pleased both him, the band and the label. I just don't think the band are that interested, and I feel he's using them a little bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
