In the name of theatricle science

After threatening many times to buy Dark Side of the Moon & The Wizard of Oz, and synching them on the 3rd roar theory, I did it tonight. So far I must say I am somewhat impressed by the synching of lyric and rise and fall of the music to the scenes playing. It is pretty uncanny. Cool scenes. The entrance of the gnarly lady on the bike and the synched music. Tornado & Great gig in the sky. Awesome. The argument scene when the gnarly lad takes toto. The crescendo matches the argument. The song when Dorothy leaves with toto. Money starts playing as soon as the movie goes to color. The Scarecrow and brain damage synch was off, yet still pretty close. The heart beat at the end of eclipse as Dorothy is tapping on the tin mans chest.
There you go. 43 minutes invested to see what all the fuss was about. I will say the fisrt 15-30 minutes have some uncanny alignment of music to the scenes.
Freak and Roll, Into the Fog would have been money better spent. What the hell it was Christmas in February.
