What you did to me was unbelievable, Connor. But then I got stuck in a hell dimension by my girlfriend one time for a hundred years, so three months under the ocean actually gave me perspective. Kind of a M.C. Escher perspective, but I did get time to think.

To every idea a shelf...

Best DVD commentary ever = Dude, Where's My Car?

Hee! And they keep talking about how this or that was an 'improv' moment.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I haven't heard the Dude one, but my current favourite is Can't Hardly Wait, or whatever one had Seth Green and his English accent. It also had the effect of making a film I enjoyed seem like it'd have been even better, if the directors had gotten more of their way. Enough that I want to see other stuff they might do.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

Can't Hardly Wait was Seth as the whitest white boy in the history of everything.

If there really is a movie where he has an English accent, I need to see it and then die, because everything after that would be a disappointment.

Seth Green. English accent. Guh.

It's in the commentary for CHW, Holli. It's absolutely hysterical.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

jimi is there somewhere to leave a message on your site?

Okay, A) wow, someone actually visited my site!; and B) there is now :)

Don't recall if this has been mentioned but Seth Green has an uncredited part in Josie and the Pussycats. He's one member of the "boy band", DuJour. Mind you, even without Seth, the movie is well worth checking out. Very funny and suprisingly political. :)

* Oh and there was another BtVS connection; Bif Naked was/were involved with the music.

Speaking of films with ties to BtVS; I finally got to watch Pleasantville again. I knew Marc Blucas had a small role in the flick but I never noticed Danny Strong was also in it -- credited as "the juke box kid" :) -- nor did I notice "Pat" (Joyce's book-club friend in "Dead Man's Party" - brainfarting on the actress' name) has the role of the mother of the girl who's tongue turned pink.

* Edited to add this.

I like the commentary for Donnie Darko done by Richard Kelly/Jake Gyllenhaal.

I just saw that this weekend and can you imagine the trauma Anya would go through if she watched it? Unfortunately, I think overall the film falls into the 'good, but forgetable' category for me--I loved the soundtrack, but I thought it kinda fell apart at the end.

And from that article that jimi posted:

“Ever since, she’s been telling her friends that her hulk has a willy. It sounds funny, but kids should not be exposed to this kind of thing. It should be taken off the shelves.”

Ah, the logic of hysterical parents. As a child I always thought there was some kind of tragic poetry in the fact that Ken had a girlfriend with breasts out to there and yonder, while he was trapped in a pair of unremovable plastic undies.
