And the one who everyone has the hardest time describing will heretofore be referred to as "The Least Well Written Down in Front panelist."

I like to think of it as "the biggest mystery."

I noticed this when trying to figure out what beer to buy for the Meltdown gig: Pabst Blue Ribbon is the only thing that is simultaneously insufferably hipster and insufferably redneck.

Can I answer this question too? You know, as the guy who has to fix a certain person's frequent problems.

Well, that's not fair, considering Teague said he hates me. If someone randomly punches me in the face then runs away, I'll know who it is. The evidence is here!

Re: (The old second-anniversary show thread.)

I have another question and this can be for everyone who has been on DIF, not just the main 4-

Do any of you have a dream guest you'd like to appear on the show? If so, what film(s) would you have them comment on? This can include films you already have done comms for smile

Re: (The old second-anniversary show thread.)

When you start the inevitable spin-off of DiF for children with your commentary for Mary Poppins, how will you avoid scaring the more nervous kiddies with your trademark suave foul-mouthery?

(Other than in the name of the podcast, Down in Front, You Little Bastards, obviously.)

So they decided against Down With Children?

Re: (The old second-anniversary show thread.)

I've got a few...hope they're helpful! smile

- What's one feature that any or all of you wish the podcast had, but doesn't right now?
- Favorite parts of making the commentaries?
- Any piece of advice overall mentioned on the podcasts that you wish filmmakers would use the most?
- What got Brian interested in Star Trek, etc?
- Genres of film (or TV) the panel likes to watch, v. genres they work on?
- For each: If you could re-do a commentary that you were a part of, but another panelist was absent and would have really made the recording more awesome, which one and who? [Have you all done this?]

Re: (The old second-anniversary show thread.)

Has learning that a decent number of people listen to the podcast independently from the movie changed your approach at all (less specific references to what's on the screen..that sort of thing)?

Re: (The old second-anniversary show thread.)

Are there now friends/family members who won't watch movies with you because they just want to enjoy a movie without thinking?

My understanding is that that title contained insufficient bastards. (Not to be confused with the upcoming Asylum movie 101 Insuficient Basterds by Tartan Quentintino.)

Re: (The old second-anniversary show thread.)

When you started the commentaries did you really think you'd still be doing them 2 years later?

Do any of you find it hard to watch a movie now without doing continuous commentary?

Would you be surprised if, in the mysterious future, fans of commentaries will make movies that go with whatever you are talking about in each episode?

On that note, I'd like to mention that, should I ever someday win an Oscar, you guys are definitely getting a thank-you in my acceptance speech. I've learned so much indelible information from you guys that not to do so would be a travesty.

It would resemble the animation some guy did of stories his little daughter told (they showed a couple before a live Rifftrax show)

He's often called "the Robert Rodriguez of Mexico."
