Things from HBO have great commentary.
Everything looks good from here... Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land.' I think we should call it 'your grave!' Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die! Oh, no, God! Oh, dear God in heaven!

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Roger Ebert has another review of Watchmen, this time after seeing it in IMAX: We're all puppets, Laurie. I'm just a puppet who can see the strings

Because books.
But the SPN DVDs have gag reels! And sometimes commentary where Jared and Jensen are funny!

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
What was I watching the other day with "What a piece of work is man..." was that Coraline?

That movie was so trippy and weird some of the pieces fell off in my mind and forgot where they came from.

Speaking of trippy and weird, I caught some of Beetlejuice yesterday. I forgot how bizarre that movie is.

Oh why don't I have Beetlejuice on DVD? I wan't to watch it right now!
Now I'm watching the special features for Burn After Reading. Can I just state for the record how much I love Frances McDormand?
I had fun watching the movie but I wouldn't rank it among the best Coen brothers work. I can't quite put my finger on what's lacking. I sort of feel like the entire plot was just a frame to hang the few brief JK Simmons scenes on. I'm used to being toyed with a little by these directors but I think the wonderfulness of the JKS scenes was overwhelmed by the awfulness of some of the other scenes. D wants to watch it again. I'm sure I'll have a different take after a second viewing. I didn't like The Big Lebowski the first time I saw it.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I was told that Ebert's commentary on "Citizen Kane" is excellent. That is not wrong. Some of the best commentary on a film that I've heard.
The commentary on "Strictly Ballroom" is really good, but Baz thinks far too highly of himself and wears a listener out with all of his talking.
I tend to watch extra features quite a lot when I rent movies.
