Electric Daisy Carnival Experience Film-Days Away

The highly anticipated EDC Experience film as you know as been pulled from showing at all AMC and Regal Theaters for undisclosed reasons. After that, it spurred a worldwide roar as numerous other theaters pulled the film, leaving no one showing the expected debut. It was further put out that Kaskades 'riot' in the streets of Hollywood spurred the reason to pull the film. It was more of a spirited parade than a chaotic riot like was said, its more of a reason to show how big EDM is and how far its coming in the music scene.
To me, it's seems like LA isn't big enough to hold or contain the EDM world. It is said that Las Vegas is to be the new location of EDM and the electronic-rave world, HOWEVER it was also found that all Las Vegas theaters pulled the film as well. It seems Las Vegas was happy with the outcome of EDC and what it brought for the city, but they don't want to be associated with the large crowds and so called 'riots' that are being put on in protest of lack of legitimacy by the EDM world. However, in my eyes, if we are being criticized for our lack of control and big crowds, why do we continuously riot and protest? Food for thought.


Official statement from Insomniac Events as of July 31, 2011:

The “Electric Daisy Carnival Experience” film has not been canceled and will continue to be shown in hundreds of theaters nationwide. Although we are very disappointed that Regal and AMC theaters have abruptly decided not to show the “Electric Daisy Carnival Experience,” we are excited that people will still have the opportunity to experience a film about one of the largest electronic music festivals in the world and the love and joy this music brings to our lives.

It is extremely disheartening that some theaters wrongly associated an unaffiliated “block party,” and its disorderly crowd, with the private screening of the film.

While we strongly disagree with the decision to pull the movie from some theaters, we assure our fans that they continue to have the ability to see our film on August 4, 2011 nationwide. We will post additional information on show times and locations on our website as they become available.

We love the music, we love the fans, and we’re working hard to replace those theaters that were lost so that all the peaceful, passionate fans who want to see the movie will still have the opportunity to do so. They were dancing in their seats at the premiere, and we want to give you the opportunity to do that too!

Enjoy the trailer yet again, I hope you all are able to get to see the film at the very few places that are still showing it, please travel to enjoy this great film, its legitimizes the experience I promise.
