Maybe you guys could kick off the New Year of DIF chats with The Mummy ('99). I was watching this Stephen Sommers' flick recently and did not think the CGI elements held up. Would like to know what the "experts" of DIF think about it. Oh, and there is a Penis Slip at the 47 minute mark. Wasn't searching it out, but there it was. Poor Arabic man gets eaten by Scarabs, and PoP!...a wang. In a PG-13 movie. What the What!? Don't think Spirelberg had this in Mind when the Temple of Doom came out.
Actually, it would be fun to do three mummy movies in a row following in the footsteps of the two Dawn of the Dead shows. Watch the 1932, 1959, and 1999 films.
If the Jewish god can stop the sun, the Egyptian ones can do things to it too ![]()
The sun was doing its thing until Barry Bostwick struck it.
Sun got all up in Bostwick's shit and insulted him.
Ones I'd like to see you guys do are:
V for Vendetta, Batman Begins, The Dark Knight, Ocean's 11 & 13, LOTR Extended editions, Star Trek: First Contact, Frankenstein (1931 version) Psycho (the one directed by Hitchcock himself, of course), Hunt for Red October, Spartacus, Dante's Peak, Ralph Bakshi's LOTR (for contrast, if nothing else), James Bond (any one or more from Dr. No on), Robin Hood (NOT Prince of Thieves or any movie with Kevin Costner, for that matter), Gladiator.
I think that's enough of a wish list, at least for now. ![]()
Oh, and hi. I'm new. ![]()
The LOTR extended editions would be really interesting. Of course, would that be two separate commentaries, or would there be a second pause/unpause point in the middle of the episode?
By the way, when you guys do Return of the Jedi, you've gotta do the special edition. You have to talk about them eventually, and Jedi has arguably the most offensive additions of any film in the original trilogy.
I'm trying to talk the folks into doing a marathon live show of all three LOTRs in one day, with each part to be released as its own commentary. So after the big day, LOTR would roll out over six weeks. My thought is we'd have pretty much all the substitute panelists on hand too, so we could tag-team out, and do it on a holiday weekend so even people who don't normally join the live chats could set aside a few hours to join the fun.
But I have encountered some probably sensible resistance to the idea and we may just do them piecemeal like our other franchise entries.
See, the thing is that the things onscreen continue to happen and change as the hours go on, so there are new things to talk about.
If we were talking about something like Warhol's EMPIRE I'd totally see your point.
Yes, I've seen Kevin Smith do his bit about the movies, too. I don't find it an accurate characterization of them, though.
And if you have people dropping out and coming in to take over, we could see what a Teague-less commentary is like ![]()
Maybe you could do the animated Hobbit the week before.
