  • A wonderful resource for film commentary lovers

    This podcast is a treasure. It features commentaries from DVDs and Blu-rays (and I think also from laserdiscs!). Some of these, I have on the discs, but they make good listens on their own without the movie. Others, are from long out of print discs, so it preserves and archives great scholarship and entertainment that is either gone or hard to find. Highly recommended

Drop Zone (1994)
Q: If you were to make this movie today, would you choose to shoot it digitally?
It would have made my job much easier, and I had to use too much light to get things done at night.
Drop Zone (1994)
Q: How were these external shots of the plane taken?
They were shot with Vistavision cameras.
Drop Zone (1994)
Q: Can you talk about that casting? Was Wesley Snipes someone you immediately wanted for the film? Was there a casting process?
We wanted to try to shake up the action movie franchises, and there were standard types of actors... Let's go completely different way.
Black Sheep (1996)
Q: What was it like to plan a scene around his movements and his body language?
The thing about Chris is even though he was a bit heavy, he was so agile.
Black Sheep (1996)
Q: What was working with Gary Busey like?
It was insane, okay? Working with Gary Busey. Just look at his teeth. He was always just a prankster, you know?
