Hey, I'm 40 and I still like the Dark Crystal. Actually, I really await you doing that commentary. Ideally, with Trey. Will ya?
Funny, though, "Explorers" I've never seen. Maybe this one missed Sweden? I have seen everything else you talk about (flight of the navigator, goonies, last starfighter etc....) but I totally missed this one(!)

I didn't get the enhanced from iTunes... it seems. Should it be there?
I like the idea, but perhaps not the day-glo execution of the idea.
Honestly, I still miss the leetle cartoon faces from ye olde DIF page. I actually don't like the layout of this DIF page with that huge "logo thing" taking half my screen. Sorry.

That's nice but you forgot "The Dark Crystal"

Hmm, Teague, you becoming "pleasantly buzzed" than suddenly passing out is becoming a bit of a habit, if-you-know-what-I-mean (*cough sneeze hack*) maybe you should take it a tad easier with the bottles

A funny thing with this movie; It seems (in my experience) only Americans can actually "enjoy" that speech (i.e. really think it is "good"), the rest of the planet just cringe.
Not only the blatant Jingoism and the near-parodic swelling music - but Pullman simple don't posess the gravitas* to pull this off.
(* = I think it was agreed that Morgan Freeman has all of it)

Be careful, or I might do just that! Not to mention Brad Pitts (in)ability to look 17 again without the help of the very same people*...

(* = they actually showed me their Benjamin Button work while it was in progress. It's a looooooooooooooooot of manual tweakery.... holy sh%t)
Heh. Guys.
You seem to think Arnold made himself "fit" for this film?
One word: "Lola". (Though they weren't called that at the time... yet.... the digital arnold sixpack was kinda the blueprint work for what later become Lola)

What I find is interesting in the GDT interview, is that it explains that she isn't actually "failing" any tests. Actually, the tests are there to teach her to think independently, so the "proper" reply to the test is to "fail" it in the traditional sense. It's a form of meta-test.
"Here, I give you these bullshit tests with bullshit rules. Your task, which I won't tell you, is to understand it's bullshit, and do the right thing"
Explained another way - she's Kirk, and the Faun is administering the Kobiashi Maru test.

ROFL.
Guys, I'm going to L.A. for Siggraph this year. I totally will have to squeeze in a day where I do a guest appearance on Down In Front.... *evil grin*

Primer... OMH. That will be.......................................................interesting.
On a similar yet tangentiall vein... you guys should do "11:14" too

I'm so with Trey on this, and I am somwhat annoyed since this was labelled as a) having Trey and b) to be "most polarizing episode ever".
Imagine my disappointment when we got neither in actuality
I would have wanted at least one panelist to rip this film a deserved new a-hole.
In general, the DIF panel has always had at least one person I can go "yup, that's what I woudl have said", but this, and the "military hardware" episode are the lone standouts away from that, m'fraid.

I didn't have time to wade this entire thread, so apologies if this has been said 1000 times, but... with Trey in the house, I'd REALLY like you guys to commentarize:
- Dark Crystal (one of my favourite movies)
- Labbyrinth (less so, but, hey, puppets )

I like Constantine - but always thought it was due to my own personal peripheral involvement with the f/x in it that made me biased, coz I never before met anyone that actually did (excepth my Niece, in her über-goth-phase).
However, I have to differ with Trey on the Keanu performance. Frankly, this is what almost breaks it for me. Even though I see the good movie that is there, and watch it for that, Keanu's woodenness takes me out of it completely at certain places.
But looking past that..... which is doable, yet hard.... I like it a lot.
