Magical Mystery Tour Reviews: Early Arrival Again 2009-11-30 - Once again I have received my items faster than I thought possible.. It took about 36 hours from order to arrival and one day was a holiday! Amazon is Amazing.
Horrible transfer 2009-11-10 - I ordered this DVD version of MMT to replace an older VHS, but I'm glad that I didn't toss the tape. This DVD picture is terrible and sound is just about as bad. It looks and sounds like a cheap pirated copy. Wait for Apple to put this out someday or get the MPI tape.
Adding My Voice To The Chorus 2009-11-05 - Have to agree with all the other comments about pirated copy. Good to have for historical value, but this is a washed out, low quality bootleg. The cover artwork is one step above old style computer pixelation and the label for the DVD is obviously semi-homemade.
Unfortunately this is the only way to get this film (for the moment) as the general consensus regarding MMT is that it is a substandard product from the Beatles.
Of course with the benefit of hindsight, its experimentation and sheer weirdness redeems it somewhat, I doubt we'll see any major remastering of this for some time. Buy this only if you're having a Magical Mystery Tour Ultra Fan Party and need a main attraction.
I should have read the reviews first!!! 2009-10-26 - I have bought from Amazon on many occasions and have found the quality of the items purchased to be great. what a disappointment after watching this DVD. I agree with many of the other reviewers that the video quality is terrible. Washed out, no detail and in geneal of poor quality. I didn't expect Amazon to ship a video that looks like a bootleg copy. My bad I should have read the reviews first.
The Beatles nuff said 2009-10-17 - If you are a Beatle fan you prob will already have the dvd ...if not get it now
