    “But I think we pulled it off” and other DVD audio commentary inanities

    I thought AB was fine on this commentary - not funny, but informative. And I don't mean to follow you around just to correct this, but it's Bruckheimer on the commentary with Baldwin/Hartnett/Affleck, not Bay. Bay is usually quite good in his commentaries. Bruckheimer? :thumbsdown:

    Which makes the Goldsmith track a true annoyance. Who cares if he talks over the music? It's the same soundtrack I can hear elsewhere if desired, so there's no reason for him NOT to talk over the music. The absence of an isolated score just makes Goldsmith's track another standard commentary...

(Despite what some reviews might...

    The big difference between the Reiner Tap commentary and his other ones is that the former is edited, and he's not solo on it. I'm sure that if Criterion had expected a good, running, screen-specific piece from Reiner, his Tap commentary would have sucked as well. He's one of the worst...

    I actually liked the Resident Evil track. Sure, it got dopey at times, but Jovovich and Rodriguez add an impertinent sense of life to the proceedings. Compare that with the terrible inanity found with the actors' tracks for American Pie 2 or Melanie Griffith's commentary for Crazy in Alabama or...
