Mr.Wood Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Holy crap that looks great. I've been coming to this site a lot for the past 2 years and one day I HAVE to make one of your trips. Thanks for the DVD's and the posts and the fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HEADCHEEZ Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 AMAZING VIDEO! You will always take the cake for best editing and music choice! BTW, I just ordered Coaster Expeditions 8,9(with shirt),10(also with shirt), and 11. A check is on the way and I can't wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Benvenuto Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Amazing. Simply Amazing. "are you two dating?" "NO!" "OH thank GOD!!" Another great peice of work from the Alvey's....10 seconds after the video ended, my order was filled out and SENT!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the ghost Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 That was awesome, and I will order in a few years when I move out, because my mom said "that is like the geekiest thing ever" when I asked if I could by a DVD, also meaning the word NO. I cant wait until college where my coaster porn collection will be so large and so X rated... Well, lets just say I'll have some good nights.

fdelhomez Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 This opening segment is amazing, nice to see you in Japan, what a unique world they have! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattnz Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 A few weird things I noticed: - A Jew playing sports! - An Aussie in Japan! - Balls being thrown at foreign objects! - Robb with cream on his face! - Kid-Tums in an inappropriate t-shirt! Overall, Japan looks so crazy and so fun, this Kiwi must find some wings again, and soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisZer0 Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Excellent intro there Robb...I may order a copy come next payday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloud Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Hey Rob, is there a chance that the DVDs will be downloadable in the future? The work with the Customs here just suck . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted April 2, 2009 Author Share Posted April 2, 2009 ^ Well, we will eventually make .mp4 versions of all the DVDs which are playable on ipod, iphone, PSP, and your PC/Mac using QuickTime Player, but I think doing a download of a 4.7gig file for a DVD quality version is not going to happen anytime soon. Think about it, with all our DVDs being two disc sets, and we now have 13 volumes including the RAW discs, if someone wanted to download them ALL that would be about 125 gig download which would just kill our bandwidth! So if you can live with the .mp4 quality for a download then I suggest grabbing those. (The Raw series are downloadable from the store now!) --Robb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloud Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Thanks for the fast info. Perhaps the full resolution videos would work with an video codec like wmv, divx, h264 etc. to make smaller files. I would use that for sure but i dont want to drive to the customs 2 hours again if i dont have to . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyuk200523 Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Have to say, this was an awesome intro to a dvd, I really must order myself one of your dvd's soon, I keep meaning too, just keep forgetting!!! Why was Lou wet then? (Or do we have to order some coaster porn to find out? ) What on earth are those Half Pipe type rides, they look incredibly fun!! Meat......on......a.......stick, enough said! Respect to you guys, what you do is awesome! Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted April 2, 2009 Author Share Posted April 2, 2009 Thanks for the fast info. Perhaps the full resolution videos would work with an video codec like wmv, divx, h264 etc. to make smaller files. I would use that for sure but i dont want to drive to the customs 2 hours again if i dont have to . I think the problem is simply "How many different formats do we need?" I would love to do the DVDs in every format possible, but I think it could be quite confusing for some people who aren't familiar with all the different file types and on top of it all, it's very time consuming for us to monitor. When we did our download test back in November (the free download we made available) we learned a LOT from that. And the biggest thing we took away from it was that most people are just not ready for direct downloads. Sure, many of us who are into it, get it, but we had a LOT of people who had trouble just simply copy/pasting the URL from the email to their browser. We went back and re-tooled the download system now and I think it's more intuative, but I still get people who can't figure out how to drag the .mp4 file into iTunes. And every time there is a problem, it's one more thing I have to resolve. I can only imagine if we had DVD Format, iPod/iPhone format, WMV format, H264 format, etc, etc.... We went with MP4 because it seemed to be common enough and popular enough with iPods and other mobile devices. I don't see us doing any other downloadable type of content in the next 2-3 years, sorry! --Robb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloud Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Sorry i didnt think about all different formats, just one full resolution thats playable on a PC. Or is the mp4-movies you already offer full resolution? Then its my fault because i always think iphone / ipod videos are lower resolution .
