Who out there thinks that movies are thought way ahead now to the point that dvd extra's are planned? They do "the making of" for movies knowing that they intend to release it on a dvd, but I wonder if its even more deliberate than that. Is it possible filming is now a bit like this imaginary example...
"Ok everybody, its take two of scene 2 of the dvd alternate ending number three. Places everybody..."
or..
"Ok, this is take four of the "deleted scene for dvd" number 3.....and action!"
or...
"Cut...very good, excellent. That wraps up the outakes for today...thanx everybody"...
And perhaps they even have people taking notes on set for use in commentary tracks etc.
I just wonder how much of the supplementary material on dvd's is really planned. I know there is obviously plenty of raw material for dvd's already if you didn't do it pre-meditated, and I am sure many dvd extra's are just co-incidence and/or the result of the normal process...but do you think they film the movie a little more planned including the dvd extra's?
