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

Yes, we're doing one. Next week, Sunday, probably evening.

We need a bunch of questions to answer for our, um, answering questions segment. "When are you doing Back to the Future" is pre-emptively disqualified. Question us creatively so we have something to talk about. (We're also taking suggestions for stuff to do with the episode. Last year we went before the Oscars and did a round-up, this year we didn't, so maybe it'll just be a short episode.)

Wee!

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

what does each member of the panel do to prep for the show?  for example, I've heard different panelists state in different commentaries that they watched the flick before doing the commentary to brush up on it.  Are there any other things that different panelists do aside from watching the film beforehand?

I can't remember if you all answered this question during the first anniversary show...

I was about to answer when I realized the whole point of this thread.

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

What TV do you use?

Name some guest panelists (famous or not) you'd like to have on, and the movies you'd watch.

What are each DIFer's favourite dvd commentaries?

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

What have each of you learned about storytelling and film structure while being a part of DIF?  And follow up question; have any of you incorporated what you've learned into any of your various projects whether professional or personal?

I should point out, the cast for the anniversary show will be myself, Brian, Dorkman, Trey, Ryan, Matt Vayda, Eddie, and Cloe. (That said, Eddie might not be able to make it.)

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

How has reviewing film changed your experience as a viewer? Do you find it difficult when watching film to switch out of review mode? How much do your partners hate going to the cinema with you now?

Describe each panelist without saying what they look like, what they wear, their professional role, or backstory.
