    Joshua Bote, writing at NPR:


    As was the case with They Shall Not Grow Old, which found Jackson reviving a trove of archival World War I footage, the Lord of the Rings filmmaker is mining 55 hours of unreleased footage of the band, using restoration techniques to render it in modern quality. The footage was originally intended for Michael Lindsay-Hogg’s 1970 documentary Let it Be.

    random, but it makes me remember there was a blink 182 documentary that was rumored to be in production a few years back but never released. wonder if footage from that era will ever be released in a similar way to this.

    My buddy worked on that and said it was so good. I doubt it ever comes out. It's like Deftones and Eros...a boy can dream.

    I have the original on Laserdisc.

    This will be much much better.

    Yup. He got to view the work-in-progress version once before it was shelved and he still won't shut up about it.

    No, it happened before that. Can't remember the exact reason, but they wanted it pulled.
