Yes, maybe I should clarify: The album is excellent, but the film is utter shit. I can fully understand why it never saw an official release.

Now how did Gary B. get hold of this?

Evil One · 15 Apr 2011, 17:28

I've no idea, but I'm glad he did. Sony seem to have attacked the Youtube uploads now.

GDW · 15 Apr 2011, 17:34

I only got to watch up to part 4 of 9. Does it get any better after this?

I would say about the same, but I find anything Meat-related interesting to watch, atleast once.

meatfanforlife · 16 Apr 2011, 02:10

I still have them if anyone wants them pm me.

meatfanforlife · 16 Apr 2011, 02:12

Did he leak it?

yah you should do that from now on with anything sensitive like that man, i would hate to see u lose everything again

It's fun to see this movie: 30 years have gone, the story seems confused ( or: is there a story ?! ). But we have the chance to look rare performances from 1981. Dead Ringer was one of my favorite albums, IMO it's unterrated so much. It's only a joke-movie, not less and not more.

Wario · 16 Apr 2011, 11:27

Only thing that sucks is the live footage that the movie contained was great.

Meat looked and sounded healthier in that footage then he does on the Wembley '82 VHS. Promised Land Especially.

If it took 30 years for this movie to show its face, it'll be 130 years till the live footage will be found.

Who? Meat?

I doubt it.
For one, I don't think Meat a copy too leak, and secondly it's been taken down, and I think if it were there by Meat's say so it would have still been up there (he would have sorted this with the copyright holder before leaking it).
I don't he has anything to do with this.

What is such a f*cking pisser is that this film has been lost all this time, the fans have been dying to see it, a copy finally comes to light, and the assholes who own the copyright take it down.

They've had 30 years to do something with that footage, 30 years to give the fans what they want, and they've sat on it.

God forbid that something like this should ever be seen by someone who really wants to see it without those assholes getting a sackload of cash.

They are never going to release it, so they are never going to make money from it, so why deny the fans the pleasure of seeing it?

Well screw them, this is one bootleg i'm more than happy to watch

However, for the conspiracy theorists amongs us (and I know you're there

) perhaps this has been a plan to get people interested and talking about the movie before it's long overdue commercial release.

Releaseing the movie like this and then taking it down is something that will get people talking.
I've told quite a few people about the movie, and perhaps that interest could be turned into sales if it were released.

It may be

, but it's a

world.

I thought this was a bad idea at the time.

And this is too!

**The Flying Mouse** · 16 Apr 2011, 16:43

I'm not saying it's a good idea, just that it might be what they're doing.

I just find it weird that after all these years it gets reviewed on a film site, and then all of a sudden it turns up in it's entirety.

Evil One · 16 Apr 2011, 16:45

It is weird. It makes no sense.

Adje · 16 Apr 2011, 16:54

You can't put something on the internet for 10 hours and expect it's gone when you pull it back. Eventhough it's taken down it already is all over the internet now. And I can guarantee you that it's gonna be alive on the internet for a long time to come.

If 'they' going to release this nobody but some die hard fans will buy it. If 'they' are behind the 'leak' then it would be a stupid move as this movie is so terribly bad.

It really is! I'd like to see all the 'live' footage used in the making of it at some point though.

Wario · 16 Apr 2011, 21:14

It sucks that i only asked Meat about the song Masculine at my M&G. I was going to ask him about the dead ringer movie but I got star struck.

PMed him about that and what the other songs were that never made the set. he answered the songs question but not the dead ringer one.

I think its something he loathes. no doubt he has a copy.

TheDoode · 16 Apr 2011, 21:17

Ironically enough though the video for More Than You Deserve is actually pretty great. At least something cool came out of that film! Oh yeah, minus the random pie rampage ...
