<div class="IPBDescription">curiosity</div> just curious if you guys ever want more 'extras' on DVD's

personally i want what 1 dvd has had. that i have seen anyway. which it lists the tracks which are played at certain points the dvd that has it is Fast and Furious it helped me find a lot of the tracks which werent on the OST... very smart move.

Music videos - what can i say.. i like em. a good one is on the new punisher disk. with Drowning Pool - Step Up.

but the most important one is, Deleted/extended scenes.. i want a button which includes them in the movie! they are there on the DVD why not have an option 'play movie with extended/deleted material' i would like to see it anyway...

so whats yours ?

    i luv the "making of documentary" in DVDs, if they have it. My all time favourite DVD is the LOTR extended DVDs. they got pics, commentary by cast, crew, whoever worked on LOTR, "making of" documentary, extended and deleted scenes.

    Alien Quadrilogy DVD boxed set is a pant-wettingly good collection of 9 DVDs.

    Its extra content spans from Post-Production back to Pre-Production, which features an ample collection of concept art making it a must for any NS mapper/modeller.

    <span style='color:white'>[Edit]</span> Forgot to mention that for every film there is either an option to watch a different version (Director's Cut, Extended Length, etc.)

    I usually like to see deleted sceens and maybe a possabiliy of seeing the film with the deleted bits.

    Directors Commentary, because I am a boring git.

    Although the Futurama ones rock!

    Making of documentries

    It's curious how the Matrix Reloaded Revisted and Revolutions Revisited are far more interesting and entertaining than the films.

    I liked all the extra crap that came with the Star Wars DVD. An entire Ken Burns documentary, for one.

    Director/Actor commentary over the film, just watched Pitch Black with that on. Interests me somewhat, especially as Vin Diesel seems to talk crap lol.

    "Oh I remember this, it was the first day of shooting."
    "No it wasn't."
    "Yes.."
    "No."
    "Oh."

    I love deleted scenes, but I wouldn't want them within the film. Often the scenes aren't completed or won't fit with the rest of the film, so it's pointless. I've seen deleted scenes that have bad colour, bad picture, bad sound...I wouldn't want that in the middle of the film.

    I like Deleted Scenes and Alternative Endings. (Training Day had some good ones.)
    I liked the Commentary on the Red Versus Blue DVD's but I've never listened to
    any others.... oh wait... except for Red Dwarf. They were funny.

    Well it depends on what the scenes contained, and where they were originally meant to go. Some stuff may have been made without a specific place to go, they'd have to make a decision that they wouldn't want to make.

    Alright if its good quality and fully planned etc, then it would fit in nice. But otherwise...

    And you ARE stalking me <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Out Takes!

    always my favorite extras are the screw up during production <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    I also love deleated scenes, directors cuts, whatever you wana call em.

    making of documenteries are fun.

    currently I am slowely going through the LotR:EE box set (my brother rocks at xmass gifts) with my mum (I am slowely turning her into an sf/f fan).

    we are watching a movie, then watching all the stuff that came with <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    As much as possible, to be honest.

    Outtakes, making-of documentaries, music videos, cast and crew biographies, concept artwork, cast and crew commentary, delted scenes, pilots (if tv series DVDs), and as much other crap as you can fit on a disc or 3. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    I too enjoy the 'making of' documentaries on DVDs. Outtakes are usually funny too.

    I've stopped watching deleted scenes though, because with the exception of maybe 3 of them that I've seen I've always ended up glad they were deleted. I cannot stand director's commentary over the normal movie either.
  • twoflowtwoflow Singing Drunk Join Date: 2002-11-01 Member: 1950Members, Constellation
    Didn't Shaun of the Dead have extras like full-length background TV links, like the zombie news reports and Trisha? More stuff like that is what we want.
  • CrispyCrispy Jaded GD Join Date: 2004-08-22 Member: 30793Members, Constellation
    Almost definitely.

    Mr. Pegg always delivers the goods on his DVD extras, taking "Spaced" as a prime example. If you've never heard of Spaced, then I CORNMAND YOU to google it this second.

    I like special effects production (Predator SE is decent, hopefully the Predator 2 disc *coughDannyGloverSuckscough* has more Predator related information), deleted scenes (sometimes), outtakes/bloopers and commentaries are usually okay - although I think it'd be cool if they made the director subtitled and let you still hear the movie (as an option).

    One movie that benefits completely from its deleted scenes: Aliens. From the seeing the colony pre-infestation, to the face hugger on Newt's Dad, to the Turrets....all good. Especially those turrets (which consists of a couple scenes).

    Most of the times the deleted scenes were either part of the original longer story and never actually got to the filming process (sometimes confusing the plot - I'm looking at you Mr. Jackson!) and other times they're part of the Director's original vision and were cut because of length contraints.

    Personally I'd rather watch an extra hour of film (even in the cinema) so that I get a full experience of how the Director want to tell the story. ~120minute films ftl.

    Indeed.

    Alien is the same way. There are some really powerful scenes that were skipped that I'm amazed were cut because they reveal a great big chunk of WTH happened on the Nostromo, especially the one where Ripley find's where the Alien is starting to make its nest thing..

    Well tbh I'm only basing what I say on the DVD of "We Were Soldiers." One of the deleted scenes in there is awful, and it really wouldn't fit in. But whatever. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
