CommentaryKino

Its on the North American dvd, the only one they sadly had to remove for the French audio for fucking Canada was the zombie actor commentary, that one hurt.

The commentary for some episodes of Venture Bros. are really nice. Jackson Publick and Doc Hammer are amusing.

I remember the one with all the zombies groaning all the way through. It was just a really funny little joke

His predator commentary was also art
any other actors who turn theirs into commentary for the visually impaired?

Tropic Thunder- RDJ stays in character as the the sarge throughout the commentary just like he said he would in the movie

Magnum Force- John Millius the writer does the commentary he's a creature from another age, so un PC but he drops some great anecdotes about the film

Jim Cameron does great commentaries if you're genuinely interested in his filmmaking process and the technical intricacies.

A scanner darkly is pretty kino. Keanu, Downy, Winona and Woody all talking shit.

Recently bought this on dvd with commentary from one of the guys from Dirty Sanchez, who obviously has nothing to do with the production of the film. I don't know what to expect

Oh also, while it's not STRICTLY director's commentary, the guys on Giant Bomb have recorded their...I dunno, "Talk over track" I guess? Kinda like MST3K but not cringy as fuck. Their commentary for "The Rock" and "Battle Royale" are great.

Just avoid any episodes with that cunt Abby

The John Carpenter/Kurt Russel commentaries are max comfy.
The Thing, BTiLC, Escape from NY.
The guys have been bros for years and you can tell they are kicking back having sips basking in each other's glow.

I got started by turning the South Park mini commentaries on by accident. But the Simpsons commentaries are really the peak of informative and comedic commentary tracks. They remember everything and are so happy to be making the commentary.

>best
Simpsons, specifically David Mirkin's run of Seasons 5 and 6, that fucker is hilarious
>worst
Futurama, especially the revival seasons, nothing but a complete wankfest over the worst episodes of the show

Pinky and the brain had some great commentary, the two voice actors are true pals

did they talk about who's the stupid one

On Lord of the Rings, either the Merry and Pippin commentary track just for shit talking, or the Boyens, Jackson and Walsh one for actually how the films were made and adapted.

Superbad.

Most of the cast is in one studio in LA while in NY there’s Jonah Hill in a room with Judd Apatow and his young daughter and he can’t stop swearing in front of her. It gets super confrontational and Seth Rogan and the others in the separate studio are egging him on to say fucked up shit and Judd storms out pissed off.

Bruce vs Army of Darkness is a good one, the one that has the case art that looks like a paper bag kinda.
>Bruce talking about how the posters made him look like a muscled up chad
Pretty great.

I think it was all a ruse because Jonah Hill had to leave anyway
Knocked Up and 40 Year Old Virgin are good too

>This guy was the governor of California
Kek

I rather like the South Park commentaries, especially the movie one. T&M say they don't like to do commentaries bc they have little to talk about, but they actually do give some fascinating insights.

Also speaking of which obligatory Cannibal! drunk commentary mention.

Thanks user

>Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, The World's End
Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg cram little details and tidbits right from the start all the way up until the end of the credits. Really comfy and informative about how they made it

>Saw (2004)
James Wan and Leigh Wanell shoot the shit for the whole movie about how cheap and shitty the films is. Talks about how the entire movie was shot on a soundstage (including the car chase) and how it was shot in 8-9 days. Good look into cheapo film making

>Scooby Doo (2002)
Cast commentary is great as they all banter about the film. Matt Lillard (Shaggy) is noticeably high as he keeps repeating himself without realizing. Reveals Velma and Daphne had a make-out scene deleted from the film. They all have a good time talking about the intial R-Rated cut

>Ferris Bueller's Day Off
John Hughes talks about the film in his one and only commentary track that is only on an out-of-print DVD from 1999. Highlight is when he talks about the art gallery as Cameron looks deeper and deeper into the painting, realizing the harder he looks, the less there is, a reflection of himself. Highly recommended and very touching as he reminisces on his time making the movie, his own teen years and the city of Chicago.

>Terminator 2: Judgement Day (Theatrical Cut)
Jim Cameron and his co-writer talk through the film with a heap of interesting facts about how the budget incresed ten-fold from the first film and how great everyone was. Not sure about the extended cut commentary, but the theatrical was a real treat.
>Ghostbusters (1984)
Ivan Reitman, Harold Ramis, and Joe Medjuck chat about nearly everything you could think of. If you can get the 1999 DVD, it has their silhouettes talking over the picture MST2K style. Lots of funny anecdotes and character development stories are told here. Laidback and chill as shit, feels like you're sitting on a couch with them.

Also obligatory Simpsons commentary

Looper was intresting to see the insights of Rian's mind for filmmaking also he filmed in China because they payed the most he was going to do that scene in France originally

>No Mike Myers
Be glad, he´s a piece of shit.
Well known secret, the reason he fell of the radar after his flics.

bull durham commentary was good, Ron Shelton and Costner may have been drinking and not giving a shit

Jaws is pretty good, massive info dump on the film.

Fantastic thread guys, thanks for the recs.
Sadly don't have anything to contribute except for a bump

great thread. now i need to actually get ahold of some of these but i dont own any physical media whatsoever, and torrenting for commentary tracks seems tricky.

Street Fighter The Movie Commentary was p interesting

>Written and directed by the same guy
>He was actually a fan of the game (he would go to the arcades to play with his son)
>Capcom execs were in town and he literally had to write the script overnight just before they flew back to Japan in the morning

How is it now with streaming services and shows/films made by them, are there ever any commentaries?

DVD/BluRay exclusive as far as I know (if they ever put that shit out on DVD/Bluray)

Streaming services are too fluid to bother with something like this.

>the best
Evil Dead 2
Big Trouble in Little China
The Thing

LotR commentaries are all comfy. I love that they have all the different departments doing their own writers/actors/special effects/costumes. Gives you all kinds of different insight on how the movie was made.

Some of the early season GoT commentaries are interesting, especially when GRRM spergs out about helmets and shit.

Wonder Showzen has some truly bizarre commentaries.

youtu.be/zL42KNWDLC0

I know the Microsoft Store has it. They'll have movie run time of 12 hours because they put all the special features into a single file.

LotR is the only dvd/br boxset I'd actually want to own. The amount of effort they put into all the extra stuff is just phenomenal. The Making Of, commentaries, deleted scenes, extras, artwork.. what other physical copy of a film compares?

Hot Fuzz Commentary track with Edgar Wright and Quentin Tarantino is literally just them jerking each other off about obscure movies and almost nothing to do with the film.

Mildly amusing.
