    I noticed the documentary feels incomplete.. its like it has a part 2 or what... i felt uncontented on the process why they end up like that... the only thing i noticed at the end of the documentary was chester telling about the band undergone in making ATS... its like pressure over process i think.... In Meteora and MTM, they always include why they came with naming that album and so on..


    But today we noticed ATS is one of the most brilliant conceptual album they ever made... people love and happy of the success of ATS and the Tour also....

    In our podcast with Ghost Town Media, the guys of Ghost Town explained that they didn't just want to make the "classic" making of DVD that you find in every band's "special edition" package. They felt that's been done before, and that few album documentaries ever dive into the true emotion/stress of creating an album and getting it released on time. So that's why this DVD was so different. It wasn't meant so much to show how the album was made, but more so the amount of stress, anxiety and pressure the band put themselves through to get it finished.

    Hope that helps :).

    It could use a follow up anyway. Can't have a story about getting something to release without the actual finish and release part.

    I've watched it twice and I didn't like it anymore the second time. I'm sorry, but you can't mess with the traditional documentary format. It works.

    As a documentary, it's pretty lame. As a 30 minute promo, like wrestlers have right before a big pay-per-view match to build anticipation for what's about to go down, it's fucking superb.

    I might be one of the few people that actually kinda enjoyed the documentary.

    30 minutes? More like 20 if you take away the long ass distorted intro (which is annoying as hell) and the credits. :lol:

    Yeah, I'm a MOATS hater. DEAL WITH IT.

    He's an overly upset fan from El Salvador. He was probably the worst troll in the LPU when they had the old system up.

    Apparently he's at "war" with LPLive. Since you seem familiar with him, what's his beef there?

    He claims that Hahninator made a racist remark about him awhile ago. Not sure what's really going on now between him and LPLive though, since I don't post on that site anymore.

    I didn't really like MOATS that much. It was cool the first couple times I watched it, but now it's just not so good for me. I love the making of MTM, the making of Meteora, Frat Party, etc., even though it wasn't really making of Hybrid Theory. Making of MTM was awesome because it was the longest documentary and because it showed everything, it showed the band having fun, the enviornment where it was made (Houdini House, Korn Studio, NRG, etc.) and because it also showed how the songs were made. The theater making of for the Webster Hall in theaters was by far the best though, showing making of BIO, HHH, WID and more.
