Yeah man, it went up, but it had SUPER volume issues and is unwatchable etc... I heard the same from others. But I ordered one, couldn't stand it any more.

The version I aquired wasn't that bad...the only thing was that you had to keep waiting for the soundtrack to catch up, but I didnt mind, it was worth it. That movie made me seriously miss backpacking and now I'm all depressed because everything in it is so true~ especially the part about how your friendships with these people is pretty much gone after the trip...it'll never be the same again. SO sad.

(well all true minus the one comment about how guys always lose weight & girls always gain...I dont think so buddy! Maybe the girls who tend to watch their weight & work out like crazy to begin with)

SWEET, I finally got my copy in the mail and had a great time watching it. It lived up to my expectations, and is probably the best travel film/documentary I have seen.

He ships via first class mail so that should be no problem for APO right?

I actually got a copy about 2 weeks ago and have had no time to watch it at all. During a moment of insanity I signed up for some classes, which along with my job and college football is seriously cutting into my fun time...I'm going to make time this weekend I think!

I got my copy yesterday and watched it last night. It was great.

He said he spent $20k for his entire trip, I would have thought a year long RTW trip would cost a little more then that.
