Mischief, mayhem, and the perfect soundtrack for disaster. This movie is filled with the footage that was deemed unfit for Fall Out Boy's "My Heart Will Always Be The B-Side To My Tongue" and goes way beyond the original DVD to give you a closer look at the band's inner circle. Includes footage on everything from the early years to backstage antics, reckless stunts, and live footage of "Armor For Sleep", "Gym Class Heroes", and many more. Also contains clips from Fall Out Boy in Japan, their summer tour, and the near riot during their Detroit Warped Tour performance in 2004.

Me and my bff olivia watched this film today. It was my second time watching it and I was still completely and utterly repulsed by how disgusting Pete is, but it just makes him 10x hotter knowing he is so unpredictable and funny. Me and olivia would totally be like Pete and his friends if we were males and I am extremely disappointed that boys aren’t like this anymore. PLEASE MAKE BOYS BE LIKE THIS AGAIN. Boys used to drink pee and run around naked now they wear ice cream shorts. What has this generation come to!!

the fact that they’re all straight edge makes this so much scarier
