Just attended my cousin's son's baptism. It was pretty cool, and for people aware of my religious inclinations: no, I did not bare my fangs and run screeching out of the church.

The best commentary is the Tropic Thunder commentary.
He really doesn't drop character until the end of the DVD commentary.
And how he drops it is almost as amazing as the scene it happens in itself.

yeah tropic thunder was damn good
also commentaries, from what I've seen, aren't something only on super duper versions almost ever, because it's just an audio track, certainly never requires an extra disc. if they record one, it's on every version like 99% of the time

I never really bother with special features. I can't imagine wanting to watch a film with people talking over it. Like, I just can't see when I would want that.

except when the criterion goes and resurrects Orson Welles for one, those end up just on theirs
do you have any idea how much a good reincarnation costs these days

Yeah, it's usually like "deleted scenes" and "behind the scenes" that make it on to the second disc in special editions. Unless you're at Wal-Mart buying those 5 DVDs in one package for 8 bucks, then you're probably gonna have commentary. I think the only way they wouldn't include it is if they didn't do any.

Supermarket editions are generally just the film and nothing else.
I'm trying to figure out what the last few films I bought from the supermarket are. Looking at my shelf, I know I got The Dark Night, Jarhead, two of the Pirates of the Caribbean films (2&3), and Underworld and sequels. None of which have commentaries.

Yeah, I get (got, I suppose) most of my DVDs from Fopp. It is pretty rare for them to include anything but the film itself. Maybe subtitles in a few languages. Maybe.

Mojo, it's great cause they talk about weird stuff they did during filming or explaining how they did stuff, or what was fun and stuff. Though the only commentary I listened to really was the LOTR films last. Basically, I got the extended boxset of all three films for my 15 or 16 bday and spent the next 3 weeks completely fucking obsessed with the stuff.
I watched all three extended films, then I watched them all with the commentary, then I watched all the extra bonus stuff.
I spent HOURS with that boxset - overall quite a successful gift really.

is an action-oriented video game with a combination of survival horror and first-person shooter elements. The game is based on the novel Metro 2033 by Russian author Dmitry Glukhovsky. It was developed by 4A Games in Ukraine and released in March 2010 for the Xbox 360 and Microsoft Windows.[2] In March 2006, 4A Games announced a partnership with Glukhovsky to collaborate on the game.[3] The game was announced at the 2009 Games Convention in Leipzig;[4] a first trailer came along with the announcement.[5]
This is a game that I'll be playing today, it's supposed to basically be Russian Half-Life and also very scary. I've decided to actually play this through, but I might pass out a few times due to fear.

I understand what a commentary is :P I just can't see a situation where I'd be all "Oh I'll watch X. Actually, I'll watch it with a commentary". It's just not how I roll.

I rarely watch films as is, so hearing some random dude babble over top would kind of be pointless.

Speaking of films. I watched The Weatherman last night. It was excellent. I remember a friend raving about it ages ago. Well done the iPlayer for sometimes having films.

Overall, very happy with both of the games (I skipped WW). The story plays pretty smoothly. I am a bit confused; at the very beginning of Sands of Time, the Prince says "I'm sorry, did I say the two of us? I meant three".
That was never cleared up. Unless by some horrible retcon that line is meant to refer to the Dark Prince.

By Russian I meant produced in Russia. Which may or may not be true because I think the studio is Ukrainian or something.
Still though, interesting to read a few different opinions of it. I'm gonna start it up now.

Don't think these have commentaries at all - on any version that is.

Unsure about the Pirates films.
Jarhead has commentary. I don't remember what people, but one was in Iraq and one was in vietnam.
So we get stiff once in a while. So we have a little fun. What’s wrong with that? This is a free country, isn’t it? I can take my panda any place I want to. And if I wanna buy it a drink, that’s my business.

Evidently specialist DVD shops are just hideously overpriced.

If I go to a video store, a new release blu-ray is $20 - $25.

Isn't that what Halflife 2 is?
This is a good idea. I watched it for the first time last year, and it's very engrossing.

If I recall there was one scene where you effectively saw Sailor Saturn without any clothes on.
Jarhead has commentary. I don't remember what people, but one was in Iraq and one was in vietnam.
It was good for the time and what was avilable.
No regrets.
Edit: I thought Jarhead just had a barebones release. Color me surprised.
You know, the guys who aren't psychotic muscle men, but just work in the Templus Warehouse Storum and supply nails for nailguns.
EDIT: Jesus there is a page, A MOTHERFUCKING PAGE, devoted to each Sailor on Wikipedia.
they're in templus warehouse storum supplying nails for nailguns.
You do know Sailor Saturn was just a kid right?
Well then.
Evidently specialist DVD shops are just hideously overpriced.
Like $25 for new releases.
Not to mention that any old movie is $10 - $15.
I bought my favourite music album from a drug store
@mim: that never stopped the japanese, why should it stop us
I don't see that as overpriced.
