DVD Commentary Options

[Paul M. is baaac...]

When you buy a DVD set (or single DVD) with DVD commentary available, do you listen to it?

I do, I really enjoy it. I've came to some conclusions on a few of the shows (hmmmm...maybe it's weird, but ah well)

The Simpsons: The crew seem to know and like each other.

Family Guy: They have a more "average man" feel, you know, they like each other, but can get pissed off at each other. More what you're like with your family.

Futurama: The crew hardly seem to know each other. It was obvious when Dan Castalenetta (sp?) came in for the final episode to do some DVD commentary, as they tended not to talk as much and when it was over, Matt Groening was the only one who sounded even remotley disappointed.

i listen to commentary but only if it's the actors talking.

I prefer just the director. I absolutely love a director that can talk coherently, articulately, and confidently about his movie for the entirety of the flick.

Let's just say it this way: Richard Kelly's commentary for the original DVD release of Donnie Darko was embarrassing, even with Jake helping him. He did much better on the director's cut. But, he did have Kevin Smith helping him along that time.
