I approve thoroughly of this derailment, and look forward to what's in SOTRE.
I too dislike Citizen Kane. It's unbelieveably overrated. It's always on those greatest films list, mostly because it was on another list that somebody made. Nearly every technique has been done better in movies since and the story isn't that great, with an unlikeable character and some pretty dodgy acting (I remember his wife being pretty awful). Thinking about it, I can't even remember the story, only the Rosebud bits.
Doesn't hold a candle to things from that era like 12 Angry Men.
Primer
I watched it recently and was really impressed with the 'hard science' aspect of it. It's sort of a mindfuck, but i'd be interested to hear thoughts on it.
granted, from a technical stanpoint, maybe it doesn't offer much (pretty amazing flick for 7,000, though), but I imagine you guys might have some good insight.... especially since it's a true indie film.
Thanks guys. I've been listening for a long time (and no Trey, i've never watched a movie with the commentaries because nearly every movie you've done i know really well) and needed to improve my slack to work ratio at the office.
It's not so much that I also want you to do Primer. It's that I want to know why you're not doing it right now.
I imagine they are actually recording it right now, while listening to the previous Primer commentary (with a 3 second lead)...
how many iterations does it take to get to the center of a commentary?
We, uh. Know that guy. Bertocci. I've known him eight years, Dorkman has known him longer because he's a dork.
Fun fact. ![]()
Primer... OMH. That will be.......................................................interesting.
On a similar yet tangentiall vein... you guys should do "11:14" too ![]()

Not sure if this one has been mentioned yet but Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Definitely has enough going for it to spark conversation.
And for the record: For Pan's Labyrinth, I can see how you can dislike it, but I don't see how you can hate it.
I will say, never try watching Primer for the first time at 3 in the morning, it doesn't work. My brain still hurts.
I was reading the glossary and I think "Match Point"
is a "perfect film" IMO.
Oh man, I love love love Match Point. One of my most favorite movies of all time. I'd love if you guys did it.

Just did a search and no one has mentioned Cloverfield. It's not a perfect movie, but I definitely think it's one of the better theater experiences that I've had.
Then again, I may be biased because I followed the viral marketing campaign. Not to mention the fact that the first trailer debuted in front of Transformers as a nameless movie that starts at a 90210 party and ends with the Statue of Liberty head thrown down the street.
Seriously. Cloverfield. Do it.
I second that. I'd like to hear what the DIF hive thinks of that movie.
(Er. I guess I could just keep that on my clipboard and paste it in here whenever somebody makes a good suggestion.)
I would hope that the god-awful Alien Resurrection (Withanerection) is on the cards for future podcasting?
Would also love to hear your thoughts on Superman 1-4 + Returns.
Also, Burton and Nolan Batman movies.
