I think the message here is: Cloe is awesome sauce and "a few" needs to become "several".

You don't have to agree with your entertainment, but when do the things it is promoting/condoning still qualify as entertaining? Just something to think about.

Nathan Fillion LIVE on KPCS!

I love Paranoia Agent, not to mention everything Satoshi Kon has ever done (that I've seen). It's a shame he passed away recently. I'm glad his friends and family are finishing his last film. Come to think of it, Down In Front should do a commentary for at least one of his films. I'd suggest either Perfect Blue or Tokyo Godfathers.

I LOVE that film! So much so, that I went to the Alamo Drafthouse in Austin to see a special screening of the film and participate in a Q&A session with cast and crew afterward. You can listen to that here: http://www.sofadogs.libsyn.com/-160-q-a … the-creeps (I'm the guy who asks about the George Clooney rumor).

I'm also on the DVD/Blu-ray for Night of the Creeps. In the Special Features, check out the retrospective documentary. At the beginning of the last segment, they show footage of the audience. I'm pretty much front and center of the shot. I'm wearing glasses and a blue shirt. You can't miss me. You could even say I'm "Down In Front." Eh? Eh? See what I did there?

I don't really understand the level of disdain some folks have for Spider-Man 2. The first one? Maybe. The third one? Most definitely. Having said that, DiF is very good at making me reevaluate my position on a given film. Sometimes, they make me think, "Wow, that IS a massive problem that I never noticed before. Now I like this movie a lot less." Other times, I think, "Hey, they make some valid points I had not previously considered. I have a better understanding/appreciation of this movie, now." There are also rare occasions where listening to DiF results in, "Hmmm. Those are all valid complaints, and I mostly agree, but my overall opinion of this movie has not changed." I'm curious/excited to see which one of those Spider-Man 2 will land on.

I grabbed this one from iTunes and I'm keeping it. Solid track for a fun riot of a film. I grew up with this movie and I'm so happy (and happy for Trey especially) that it's finally being recognized by other people who aren't me!

Ye shall always be:

1.) Muscular
2.) Aggressive
3.) Busy

I want one of those shirts.

Nah, Joss Whedon's idea of porn is nothing but different angles and close-ups of Summer Glau's feet.

Ah yes. That must be why.

Also, I, too have the soundtrack/score to The Fifth Element and it is indeed awesome. Did you ever notice that in the Ruby Rod excerpts, Bruce Willis' voice is replaced/dubbed over? The Fifth Element video game is similar. If I remember correctly, the cut scenes that show footage from the film don't feature shots of Bruce, and in the actual game, his character's face and voice are completely different. Jovovich at least worked on the game, so there is that. I remember the game looking cool, but the controls had a very odd layout, making gameplay very frustrating and not fun. Speaking of Bruce Willis and video games, there's a Playstation game he did called Apocalypse that's a ton of fun.

Did I stutter? Yes, really. For me, just like movies, the worst thing a commentary can be is boring. DiF is free. I'm not paying anything for it, so I don't feel entitled, as if the commentary has to be anything more than entertaining. These guys don't owe me anything. I was entertained by it, as I often am with Down In Front. Granted, if they can also be insightful and informative then all the better.

I found Down In Front's commentary for The Fifth Element to be entertaining, and I'm okay with that. They certainly get major points for this:

"I've never heard it described that way, but you've perfectly crystalized The Fifth Element. It's Blade Runner as done by Cirque du Soleil. It's wet, and French, and gay and on fire!"

In fact, I think that one deserves to be on the quotes page at zarban.com

This talk of a Sims movie reminds me of "The Nines", written and directed by John August and starring Ryan Reynolds. If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it! In fact, a DiF commentary for that one would be excellent, in my opinion.

Huh. I'm okay if I'm the only one who found it entertaining on its own. I doubt I'll ever watch it again, but I had fun.
