Been hearing about it in my Beatles Collector's group. I'll believe it when I see it in the stores.

That's awesome! My old copy was really bare-bones so I'm really excited about this. Much as I love A Hard Day's Night, this was the film that really did it for me.

Same here Matthew! But we often wonder how long past the release date will it arrive down-under! As with Let It Be, still not available in Oz!
Great film!

Let It Be still isn't available anywhere legtimately, 'cept maybe old VHS tapes which crop up on eBay from time to time.

Thanks for that Rumbush, my local record shop had told me nearly 2 years ago that L I B would be in the shops by Christmas 2005! Damn cheek! But i will be getting my copy of Help as soon as it lands!

This i sgreat, but... I fear this will be the same thing as "AHDN" - two DVDs with 0 commentary from the remaining Beatles. AHDN is great but really, interviews with the hairdresser or the guy who played the croupier?

Maybe the "Help" extra disk will tell us what happened to the tiger.

I'll just be happy with some bonus features that are better than what's on the old MPI disc.

"Preorder links will be added in the next 24 hours"

Are they using Jupiter hours or am I looking in the wrong place?

Have to say I love how they release some titles then pull them then re-release. I sold my dvd of Help for $150..just sold a sealed laser disc of Let It Be for a tad under $300...btw..yes, I WILL buy Help again...maybe a few copies!

One thing's for sure - you need to buy Beatles video releases as soon as they are released. If you wait around too long, you find they are soon no longer available. I've always wondered why this is the case with a band that seems to be rediscovered by every new generation. Very strange...

PS - I still kick myself every time I see my 'Help!' DVD-R on the video shelf. It only plays on my computer!

I have a copy of Let It Be on Selectavision disc from way back when. That's how I've always seen it. When I was in junior high ('95-'97) Gimmie Shelter wasn't available and I had it too. It was really excellent for me, because I thought that I was just about the coolest kid around, not knowing how geeky other kids thought all of that stuff was, especially the antiquidated technology of the RCA Selectavision.
