this collection is excellent. being a complainer though, i only have 2 gripes:
and...
other than that, this is a great release. i even got it for under $20!
When I looked at the press release of New Order Item 2-dvd set, I was wonder what the heck is Paris-Beijing Ceremony, Temptation. As New Order've never been to Beijing, I thought it was a printing error. After watching the dvd, I found it is Yu Lik-Wai(a HK dorector) is the director of the newly made Ceremony video and the video is filmed in Beijing. The two dvd covers are taken from the same video. As a die-hard New Order fan, I'm so prond of a HK director finally made a New Order video(and a Joy Division song) even the video is badly directed.
Fantastic package overall, I can't believe the videos are complete down to the lead-ins and credits.
I've seen most of these before, but having seen it for the first time last night I have to say that '60 Miles an Hour' is possibly the strangest video ever made. WTF??
And, no doubt, it's worth 20 bucks of for a full-length 'Perfect Kiss' video in DVD quality with 5.1 sound alone.
(oh yeah, the mismatched video/audio on the Baywatch thing is annoying)
Apparently there is a delay on the new videos, and a few errors here and there?
Somebody sent me that:
* The "More" section - the videos are all out of sync with the pictures * "New Order Story" the chapters do not always correspond to the videos listed for them
Nobody's perfect I guess.
I did receive my copy monday, but the damned courier sticky note was gone with the wind... so I have to do a pickup today... !
16.99 shipping included at deepdiscountdvd.com
i have ordered from them before and they are good
the J&R Music World in Downtown Manhattan had it for 21.99 + tax
Just got mine that I pre-ordered from Amazon about 5 minutes ago. I'm in NY. The discs are reversed for me as well. .
$19.99 on sale at Virgin Union Square here in NYC... Just grabbed it at lunch.
Kind of lost in the rack of "new releases" by the front door but it is there if you look hard enough.
Can't wait to re-watch New Order Story after all these years.
I hope kim's underground has it becaus i have a gift card for them. I guess this will stop their bootleg copies of NOstory.
I got a copy at Tower Records yesterday for $18.99. A great release! I hadn't seen NewOrderStory in ages and had only seen the short version. I'm surprised they didn't interview Stephen Hague in the documentary. They should have put him instead of Bono who doesn't say anything remotely interesting.
So Manumatic, where did you end up getting it? At Mags? Cause I saw the Best Buy website too, and I checked today at media play on the Wesside (aight?) and they did not have it either. drats. looks like I'm waiting until next week when this damn bronchitis finally leaves my body for good, hopefully...
I dont know about manumatic....
I bought my copy at Magnolia Thunderpussy. They had two or three copies of it.
I doubt the Media Play ont he West Side would have it, since almost everyone who works there, like most people on the West Side, are complete idiots.
And I can say that cause I grew up on the West Side.:)
NewOrderStory is amazing, such a wonderful documentary.
However, it doesnt feature clips of the live video or World, which the US video shorter version does...

It's just how I'd expect a NO release to be...all cockeyed and erratic.
((((e))))
Picked mine up today at the Beast Buy in Salem, nobody else had it within a 20 minute drive of my house. At any rate, quite glad to own an "official" version of NOStory. And yes, there is one more instance of the wrong disc in the wrong sleeve in the package. Quite like the slipcase though. 
Maybe I wasn't watching really, really closely, but the Baywatch Regret seemed to be in sync to my eyes.
I got mine from Amazon.com today. Amazing, as I thought it was gonna come like next week.
Same thing here -- notes in the wrong case, reversed DVDs, but everything's here.
One thing I noticed about the NewOrderStory here is that it is listed as 138 minutes. The Canadian VHS version I have says it is 140 minutes! It's probably exactly the same, but I'm glad I have both. [Oh, never mind -- it's actually the same thing, as the outside box says "approximately 140 minutes," which is what the cassette says.]
The liner notes by Shamberg are great. It's so awesome to see how one person has basically seen the entire catalog through, you know? I'm betting it's kinda rare, especially nowadays.
I wonder why people say the WFTSC video isn't on it, because I'm watching it... RIGHT NOW !!
Got it two hours ago.
My covers were switched.
'Regret' - Baywatch was in synce totally.
'The Perfect Kiss' does in fact skip.
I haven't gotten to NewOrder Story yet but WHY DID THEY TAKE OUT THE ALTERNATE 'WORLD' CLIP!!! That was my favorite part of the video! Dammit. Glad I have the old VHS.
I remember back in '94 asking my record dealer in town to hold it for me while I raced from the beach into town, driving the wrong way down one-way streets to get to the shop to get that VHS before they closed. I remember thinking, "Wow, I'm finally gonna hear New Order TALK!"
But really, what's up with the absence of the alternate 'World' clip???

Which alternate World clip?

Which alternate World clip?
I am also only aware of one version of the world clip and I do have clips of it from sources such as the New Order Story, the Best Of and the telly, so if there's an alternate clip it should've been on at least one of them.
How is it different?
It's the part of the movie where they play World, it's like, they're on stage, and there is a lot of blue lights and, I believe it's not the album version or the Perfecto Edit, they're playing a slightly different mix.
All I remember is that there is a lot of blue lights and they are playing it on a stage set-up.
Please forgive me, I haven't watched the NewOrder Story DVD and it's been years since I watched the VHS copy I have.
I am just going on what the other guy posted a page ago - he said something like a clip of 'World' was missing. And I remembered, as much as I like the real video of it, I like this other footage which has the band 'semi-performing' it.
Please fill me in.
Anyhow, this rules. '60 Miles An Hour' is the best video of all time. I liked the new 'Temptation' video but could do without the mental image of a Chinese guy dumping Tide all over a tunnel everytime I hear 'Ceremony' now. The WFTSC video was fairly lackluster.
I can't believe how much got cut out of my NO Story VHS. This extended version is great. Damn you people with laserdisc players who knew this already!

I don't remember that to be in NewOrderStory though. Unless this was on the US NewOrderStory and nobody ever noticed it's not on the UK editon? 
I guess you are talking about the version available here online here ?
I didn't watch NewOrderStory for at least 3 years, but I don't remember any live World in it.
However, the only alternate version I know is the one with the Perfecto Edit.

Ahem, in Canada we had the full version ;) on VHS.
-cries tears of joy-
I AM SOOOOOO HAPPY they stuck 1963 on there.. even though the 94 mix is a shadow of the 87 mix....my only copy until this week was some horrid tv cap in MPEG-1 a friend sent me from europe. i am on cloud 9........
ok and i will add i don't mind the newly concieved videos for Ceremony/Temptation. as a club VJ it has been one of my greatest desires to have some sort of video, however goofy to play for these tracks. i can now do so ;)
now all the 18 yr olds who come out to my thursdays can feel the chill down their back when an old New Order track creeps out over the loudspeakers.
BTW, am I crazy or does the Jetstream video features another version than the single version with more Hooky at the beginning? 
hey wait now... ok skimming quickly through these posts..
is the NOS dvd the same ver that was on Japanese LD? that had more stuff than even my US laserdisc.... it says 140min on the slipcase and 138 on the amray case for the dvd lol. jeeze who does layout on these things?
oh boy, i never did get all of these different releases sorted out.
and why no BM95 video?
