Rock n' Roll Doggie
So is it remastered?

Um...let's not hijack threads.
Uh ok you guys do realize that part was a re-enactment right?
Imagine a neighborhood where every home is a broken family: misery, divorce, or worse. Drive down the street and it's every single home. That's the unfortunate terrain of rock bands. Implosion or explosion is inevitable. U2 has defied the gravitational pull towards destruction. Somehow, it has endured and thrived. The movie From the Sky Down asks the question why.
I don't know if you're talking directly to me, but I'm not complaining, I like the documentary. It's just not as great as I suspected.
And besides that: I just say what I want.
I see, but what's the big deal about people not liking the docu for whatever reasons? Most people here do seem to like it anyway....No, I'm not specifically talking to you; that just seems to be a common reason that people are disappointed with the movie.

Fair enough.Well, they can dislike it however they choose, but some act like it was false advertising and they were expecting it to be a making-of.
One thing I'm left wondering -- why did the band/McGuinness sanction this film, now? The one thing I didn't like was how the film led up to the 2011 Glastonbury performance. Yeah, I get the 20-years-later angle, but to me U2 in 2011 is not the way to end a film about U2 in 1989-1992. It almost smelt like a McGuinness-ish advertisement for "U2 At Glastonbury", except there is no such commercial product (is there??).
Also, as well as JT remaster booklet, absence of Larry (2011 footage) was notable.
He is, I meant there is no video footage of 2011 Larry (unless I missed something).
The other three all make visual appearances.

He's doing the 2011 interview while driving a Trabant, as a parallel to that infamous scene where he got pulled over by an East German policeman 20 years before.

Guggenheim said Larry didn't want to do a sit-down interview like the others did.
Didn't Larry have a really bad time of it during AB? I think for a while he was feeling frozen out and a little unhappy about the drum machines, etc. Maybe he just doesn't want to talk about all that, because I don't really remember him being particularly camera shy.
