Since there's quite the fan club for Benito Pagano here, I thought it would be appropriate that this month's video is a display by IPON. With the same designer, Joachim Berner, as this years display by IP of Germany, I thought the 2000 display would bring a smile to everyone's face. Note that this month's video was filmed from a different position (to the right hand side of the display area in front of the Jardin d'Etoiles) with an analog video camera (actually a Betacam) and was then transferred to S-Video tape before I digitized it. One channel of the sound comes directly from the mixing desk at La Ronde.
Enjoy!
By the way, TRae has the Symposium videos ready for me to upload, but we'll save those for December - which should be quite the treat as there's about an hour's worth.

Hi Paul,
Thank you kindly for that glorious video of IPON! I know there is a huge fan club on this forum regarding the firm, and I know for a fact that Pierre, in particular, is a huge lover for it.
In any case, I was actually thinking, but do you think it would be appropriate to upload a video once every 2 weeks? Yeah, I'm impatient, but it's just a thought...
Thanks again. This video was actually quite the surprise.
Trav.

Thanks a lot for the video! I'd love to see more of the older displays from the 90s and early 2000. Watching a display from the 80s would be fascinating!

Wow..nice video. Thank you Very much!!! It could be great to see the Spanish display of the same year (Igual, with a great finale).
I agree with reflections..you have a lot of videos, so you could upload one video every two weeks !!!! ;-)
------------------------------------------
I can't see the finale of this movie...is it normal?¿ For me it's only 25 minutes long.

It plays the full 30 minutes for me - the finale is to van Halen's "Jump" and is one of the most exciting finales of all time

It'd be sweet if we could have access to all the displays since 1985. But yes, I totally agree with Enkil - it would be so cool to see more displays from the 90s, early 2000s (particularly Spain 2001), and of course the good old 80s. I wonder if La Ronde has some kind of video archive of all the displays since the beginning of this competition.
Again, nice video! I hope December's video is also a sweet surprise selection since it's indeed almost Christmas time.

Don't worry, I have the video from that display, it will be coming eventually. And no, I'm not going to be putting one up every two weeks otherwise there's be nothing for the post-2008 competition period!

No, they don't as far as I know. The videos I'm putting up from the late 1990s were filmed by the guy that La Ronde used to use - he only had one set of tapes and recorded over the previous year each time
It was only when Six Flags took over and La Ronde started making DVDs for the competitors that a true record was kept. Kind of sad really.

Paul,
Yeah, that is rather unfortunate. It would have certainly been nice to see at least one or two displays from the 80s, or even the early 90s, when I started attending. I wonder if maybe a few faithful individual spectators out there may have gone through the trouble to actually record many displays since 1985...oh, the possibilities... However, the good news is that we have plenty of good videos to view at the moment, and I suppose that's a lot better than nothing.
Edit: Wait a minute - did you just say that you have Spain 2001 (Igual), Paul??! o_0 You have no idea of how much I've been dying to see that again after all these years since I witnessed it that very night!

What was controversial about Igual's display in 2001? They won the Gold Jupiter and I don't recall anyone being upset at the time so I fail to see what the controversy was. BTW, I don't have any videos from 2001.

That's a bummer. I actually thought that Rovira was referring to Igual, since Igual was in Montreal in 2001 and Caballer presented in 2000, so maybe that's where the confusion came into play. However, I do recall Spain 2000 having an excellent display as well, so no worries.
Spain 2001, though, had one killer beast of a finale, and the faux finale itself was monstrous. Truly unforgettable.
