Congrats on the three years, and good luck going into this new phase. Pretentiousness is not a problem if its complex, nuanced, considered, informed analysis. Keep it up. Would much rather have you guys err on the side of pretentiousness than shallow, flippant, dismissive cynicism.

Sadly I arrived around the time you guys were ending the show so I wasn't able to hear the entire show.      Fortunately you were able to upload this quickly so I can hear the entire thing.

Want to say that while I've been listening to DiF for little over a year, I've enjoyed every time I've been able to be for a live show and/or listen to your eps when they're available on archive.  You've guys been doing this for three years and not once did it seemed as though you were slacking off.  In fact, it looks as though you've only gotten better as time went on.

Congrates in having DiF go long as it has and looking forward to what you might have in store for the future.

I wish I could've flipped the video, but that would've made video cards everywhere cry out.

Oooooooh. So shiny.

Congrats on 3 amazing years, guys. I can't wait to see what comes next!

Happy anniversary, guys!

Change is bad (said the change management and training consultant). I have enough podcasts of dudes just chatting about movies and TV for 30 to 60 minutes a week.  But I look forward to whatever you decide to do from week to week.

I probably have a substantially higher tolerance for delays between releases, so I'd be happy if DIF did 1 commentary a month. I think other commentators I've greatly enjoyed have burned themselves out trying to be too regular. I've been amazed that DIF has soldiered on so regularly for so long.

However, regarding the community collapsing—I do retain the fondest memories of the Blackadder message board, circa 1996-97, where I'd see 80 or more messages a day from people who shared the same wry sense of humor, and the recursion and cunning plans were the stuff of legend. I wish that stuff was archived....

*PS—ALL those negative comments on iTunes are just me pranking you.

The problem with calling people arrogant is that it's difficult to do so and not come off as arrogant yourself.

Which is why I decided not to take a potshot at his reference to "They Abyss".

However, I will say that the first person to do a They Live/The Abyss mashup poster with that title deserves all of the user karma available.
