Not the original, it’s the remix version :(

Not the original, it’s the remix version :(
I have been searching for the original version of Empire Records for a long time and was so excited when I thought I found it here! Unfortunately, it is the remix edition with added scenes which really throws off the pacing for me. Other than that, the shipping was fast and easy, packaging intact, and all is well! I recommend to the seller that they change the product image so purchasers know they are getting this extended version :)

    5.0 out of 5 stars 90's Teen Individuality at it's best!
    Reviewed in the United States on February 21, 2023
    Verified Purchase
    I grew up in the 90's and this movie brings everything I loved about it back from SNES, Alternative rock, crop tops, raves, CDs, grunge looks, I could go on and on. Teen life in that time period couldn't be any better, and when things go wrong they can go right later on and it shows here. You could see yourself in at least a few of these characters here. AJ, the lovestruck nice guy art student who struggles with expressing himself, Corey the sweet though shy overachiever (love her look), Mark the quirky comic who loves to act up, Lucas the rebel who means well but messes up, Debra the ultimate introvert tired of being invisible, and Joe the boss of the teens who acts more like a father to them all. As the teens struggle with trying to keep the store alive, they're also struggling to maintain their individuality, not succumb to the conformity society expects them to be. Without revealing anything, this will have to laughing and crying, and simultaneously discover yourself that you'll want to see it again and again. This wasn't a commercial success and deserves more attention and respect.

    Parental Advisory: There are some sex references, though not too explicit, some moments of seduction, and a few passionate kisses. A few females including Corey wear midriff-baring outfits. One character is shown to have attempted suicide with bandaged wrists, a gun is pointed at someone but never fired, and there are a few brief scuffles among teenagers. There are some name calling and mild swearing, though there is one F-bomb at one point, loud and clear

    4.0 out of 5 stars The Time To Hesitate Is Through
    Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2006
    Verified Purchase
    Trying to contribute something useful to prospective viewers means trying to explain the extremely polarized nature of the comments about "Empire Records". An uninitiated reader would think that the love-it and hate-it groups were talking about two different films. Which is actually a relatively accurate take on the situation. Allan Moyle's films may differ in subject and structure, but they all have the same indefinable quality that literally connects them to a segment of viewers. This is not the same thing as "getting it" which you would use explain the positive/negative reactions to "Dr. Strangelove", "Nashville", or "Clockwork Orange".

    The connection process is more subtle, and it doesn't seem to matter whether you are watching "Times Square", "Pump Up the Volume", "New Waterford Girl", or "Empire Records". An earlier comment came close to capturing this quality: ".....watched it (again) the other night with my boyfriend, and we both still laughed during the funny parts and cuddled during the sweet parts and, well, danced during the dance parts.....". The point being that if you have ever connected with a Moyle film you will most likely connect with "Empire Records" and will see an entirely different film that those not so lucky.

    What about those with no prior exposure to Moyle? Think of "Empire Records" as the "American Graffiti" of the 90's, a similar "one-day" structure and a cast of relatively unknown young actors destined to make it big. Structurally it's a microcosm movie like "The Big Chill", as almost all the action takes place in the same location and the day being portrayed is not a routine one but an extraordinary one (it's Rex Manning day). Not all fans of "Ghost World" and "Can't Hardly Wait" will enjoy "Empire Records" but it is probably safe to say that if you hated those two films you should avoid "Empire Records".

    It has a happy ending with characters you like and identify with, and the small world of the record store functions as family and universe for these characters. There are lots of little things that you only pick up on after repeated viewings. I'm convinced that the over-the-top stuff works (i.e doesn't come across as totally lame) because Moyle and his editor have carefully set things up on a subconscious level. For example when Corey is agonizing about opening her Harvard admissions letter, they cut between her and attentive shots of both AJ and Gina, who are standing near her to be supportive despite having mixed feelings about her going away. They are the two people who care the most about her. Which furnishes the viewer with the information to understand the nature of her meltdown later in the film, she comes unglued not about Rex Manning but with the sudden realization that her preoccupation with herself has alienated the two people she cares about the most in the world.

    My favorite sequence is when Joe tracks down Deb (Robin Tunney) who has retreated from everyone and is sitting on the floor of one of the listening booths doing the store's tax return, symbolic of the protective niche she has found working in the store for Joe. In an extremely touching scene Joe finally just tells her that she is doing a good job. Tunney nicely underplays her character's gentle sarcasm during their exchange, but there is a huge dimensionality in her responses that perfectly communicates her connection to Joe an the store. So that in about 30 seconds Moyle has set up a believable explanation for the sacrifice Deb will later make to help save them.

    My second favorite sequence is a montage of activity inside the store early in the film. While the soundtrack plays Dire Straits' "Romeo and Juliet", the editor cuts between characters, coming back to "Juliet" Mills' daughter each time the Juliet lyric is sung.

    Plus there is a nice bit of irony as the film opens with a customer asking a question which sets all the events in motion: "Do you think the story is already written or do you think a bold courageous act can change the course of history?". The irony being that the bold act changes the course of history in a totally unintended manner.

    The ending is a mix of the "Times Square's" ending and something out of a Judy Garland- Mickey Rooney movie where they get the gang together and put on a show.

    "Empire Records" has no obvious technical problems and Moyle gets very even performances out of his relatively inexperienced cast. The soundtrack is the most diverse and extensive you are likely to encounter.

    Then again, what do I know? I'm only a child.
