willplaygame Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Do any of you really believe that we'll get a movie in the next 30 days or so? (I'm trying to be optimistic but jeez, I think we've been told some bullshit, once again) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willplaygame Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I found something today, the movie is getting released in Japan on blu-ray/dvd on June 17th. There is a pre-order page (http://www.hmv.co.jp/artist_Green-Day_000000000032781/item_Heart-Like-A-Hand-Grenade_6389305) for the blu-ray and the dvd edition on HMV(cd/dvd store that UK had and Canada/Japan still have). I found the news on a Japanese website about music news : (http://amass.jp/55110/) . I couldn't understand anything so i translated it through Google and it seems pretty official.

willplaygame Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 This seems real, HMV are a big company I asked John on his facebook but he hasn't answered yet. But as of right now, the movie is officially coming out in Japan on June 17th, I hope we'll get it in the US/Canada and people in Europe too.

willplaygame Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 John did answer me but was very vague, I asked him if Japan was the only place where it was getting released and he answered : "hmm I have no idea. It looks like the old version. I will find out sir." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuzz Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 I was told today this wasn't a real release. It's not official and the bands management will be working to remove it. The actual movie doesn't have a set release date at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willplaygame Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I still can't believe it's been almost 8 years that John teases on facebook and nothing official has ever come out. I don't get how the movie can be so hard to release, is it a legal issue? Why would John claim that the movie gets out on April if it doesn't?

willplaygame Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I don't think he's doing on purpose he gets told things by someone at the label and dunno if the label person fucking with John or plans changes yeah but, how hard would it be to say "it seems the movie won't come out on April finally, sorry guys, i'll try to get you caught up if i hear any news"? By no means I blame him, Warner is the one to blame for that. My theory is that John must be tired to do updates to people, he's been doing that for 7 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willplaygame Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I don't think that's it. I personally think it's more John trying to pressure people into letting him release it. They should really just do a digital release and not give a shit. It wouldn't make a shit ton of money but it'd be 10000x better than 0$,the way they're doing it right now. Even if they release the movie on dvd, I don't think it'll sell that much, we're like 2k people on earth aware that this movie exists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there was a reason it was held back all these years and probably why John had to re-edit it a couple years back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DannyDirnt Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 I honestly don't think many people will care nowadays about a making of of American Idiot. I don't see it being released. It would have made sense in 2004-2008 but not now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willplaygame Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 I know i'm kinda getting annoying about that (since Green Day's management told the thing wasn't true) but an Amazon.co.jp page popped-up and it's for HLAHG and it has the same release date, it even has an item number: . I translated it (through google) and, it has a release date, an company attached to it(Yamaha Music and visual's) etc.. http://www.amazon.co.jp/ハート・ライク・ア・ハンド・グレネード【Blu-ray】-仮-グリーン・デイ/dp/B00W5YLN8M/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1430157031&sr=8-1&keywords=ymxa+10592 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sound mix done and now off to Warner Brothers. I want to thank Scott Gawlik and Dylan Melody for their amazing talent and making this film incredible. Also thank you Chris Dugan for creating an American Idiot overture the one I wanted 11 years ago!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
