Your most watched Special Feature? - DVDfile.com forum for DVD, Blu-Ray, and HD-DVD

Riedenschneider · 12-31-2002, 10:53 AM

Is it a making of, deleted scene, photo gallery, outtake, trailer, commentary... what is your most watched special feature?!
Mine would be the trailer of Snake Eyes. I must have watched it over 40 times now.

wahlers · 12-31-2002, 02:08 PM

Mine would probably be a tie between:

the French Language track on "Nightmare Before Christmas"

and

the commentary track on "Idle Hands".

AnonomusBob15 · 12-31-2002, 03:34 PM

Full Tilt Boogie on From Dusk Till Dawn

Fight Club Trailer

PTA solo commentary on Boogie Nights

Evil Dead Trilogy commentaries

Prancer · 12-31-2002, 03:43 PM

I love watching trailers for these:

Star Wars Episode I - The Phantom Menace

Dark City

City of Lost Children

Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring

The one disc I don't have yet with a great trailer:

GODZILLA

Good trailer, unless you haven't seen the movie yet.

I watched tons of trailers and TV spots. I also really dig those Charlie Rose interviews. Most other features I only use once, except for interesting interviews or commentaries.

StinkPalm · 12-31-2002, 04:48 PM

The Deleted Scenes/Outakes on Austin Powers in Goldmember must have seen them at least 10 times

JimboQ · 12-31-2002, 05:04 PM

The Exorcist 25th Anniversary Edition

First DVD I bought, and still my favorite. The disc is the pride of my collection, and has so many features. I assumed that every disc was going to have just as many. To be honest with you, the original theatrical trailer is the feature that attracted me to DVD in the first place, so reading that this disc had Television trailers as well REALLY almost gave me an erection (not literally, people). And also the Exorcist 2 trailer (which is probably the BEST music video you've never seen) The making of featurette is about an hour and a half, and the commentary by Blatty and Friedkin, and an alternate track of voice recordings of Linda Blair and Mercedes McCambridge practicing the scripted lines of the demon. The cool
thing about the making of featurette is that ALL of the main cast is involved and they ALL seem like they WANT to be there.

C Roberts · 12-31-2002, 05:30 PM

I don't watch most special features, but the ones I've watched the most are music videos. I always watch the video on Run Lola Run after watching the movie. If I had the first LOTR disc I'd watch the Enya video a lot.

jonathan_little · 12-31-2002, 06:38 PM

It's probably the Men in Black trailer. I really enjoy watching that one. It really captures the essence of that movie quite well.

sub780lime · 12-31-2002, 06:55 PM

SolidSnakeASS · 12-31-2002, 07:48 PM

The tribute to Lawrence Tierney. Best feature ever. On the Resevorr Dogs SE disc.

Locke_ · 12-31-2002, 07:55 PM

The feature I like to use the most is probably the commentaries. I just like to know why the movie was made the way it was made while watching it. My favorite commentaries are by directors and stars. I don't care about producers, executive producers, etc...

My favorite commentaries have been Wes Anderson's (The Royal Tenebaums, Rushmore) and Brendan Frasier's solo commentary on The Mummy (for example, he was really being hung a little bit...).

TwistedByDesign · 12-31-2002, 10:33 PM

Commentary for Kevin Smith films...

Master Gandhi · 12-31-2002, 10:46 PM

All of the trailers and TV spots on the "Star Wars" DVDs are cool to watch. Those character TV spots on AOTC really get me fired up.

The commentaries on the "Simpsons" DVDs are packed with interesting tidbits. They're almost as good as the episodes themselves.

The hidden features on the "Lord of the Rings: FOTR: EE" DVDs are fun watches.

Martin Blank · 12-31-2002, 11:11 PM

If I need to be cheered up I press the Panic Button on the Chicken Run main menu.

RamonesGirl · 12-31-2002, 11:14 PM

Commentary on Evil Dead 2 and Clerks: Uncensored I've listened to maybe a total of 20 times altogether.

For my boyfriend it's the Can't Hardly Wait commentary, he's listened to it about 15 times.

I love that you mentioned this feature, Solid. When I first watched it, it was about 3 o'clock in the morning and I was pissing my pants in my room. It is one of the funniest stories I have ever heard in my life.

Good call, man.

can that be found on any other dvd's besides Snake Eyes?

Avid · 01-01-2003, 01:40 AM

The editing sequences on Traffic CC.

My favorite standard extras are trailers and making of documentaries.

boddah · 01-01-2003, 01:45 AM

I watched all of the LOTR:EE features, probably the only disc with an ample amount of extras that I've watched all the way through.

I like commentaries and still galleries the most, I'd say.

MrTony · 01-01-2003, 04:40 AM

I love watching and re-watching deleted scenes of all kinds, particularly the ones on Boogie Nights and The Godfather Collection. And although I generally don't get into trailers that much, I love the teasers on the Magnolia DVD.

Another great one with re-watchability is the Max Fischer Players shorts for the MTV Movie Awards on Rushmore.

XtrueX · 01-01-2003, 06:24 AM

I love the deleted scenes on the "Waiting For Guffman" DVD, particularly the performances of "Nothing Ever Happens in Blaine" & "This Bulging River". I can't believe those didn't make it into the film!

Buffalo Bill · 01-01-2003, 06:25 AM

I watch all special features at least once (just to make sure the dvd is defect free). What I watch most after that are trailers & deleted/extended scenes. Happy New Year everybody.

bembol · 01-01-2003, 06:50 PM

One of the best commentaries...

Can't Hardly Wait

BubbleGumUK · 01-01-2003, 11:29 PM

The one I always end up showing people when they come round is the alternate ending to Little Shop Of Horrors from the deleted DVD.

Although it's in black-and-white rough cut, and the effects work isn't finished, it's 22 minutes long and has a completed musical score!

SkottDMD · 01-04-2003, 06:16 AM

The only special feature I think I have watched more then twice would be the cut documentary on the Jaws DVD

Other then that I can't think of to much at the time. Some of the Nightmare on Elm St. stuff on the encyclopedia I have re-watched as well.

Al Pacino · 01-04-2003, 04:28 PM

In Glengary Glen Ross the feature where they have a tribute to Jack Lemmon. And in close 2nd is The tribute to Lawrence Tierney. I was surprised to see someone post this, but it is so funny.

bigking100 · 01-05-2003, 03:07 AM

all the kevin smith commentaries are awesome

Kamerys · 01-05-2003, 04:02 AM

Deleted/alternate scenes, outtakes (if any), documentaries. Commentary on the films is probably the best. I just got the S.E. of Starship Troopers, and the commentary with Paul Verhoven, Casper Van Dien, Dina Meyer, and Neil Patrick Harris is great to hillarious.

Also the commentary in the SE of Conan the Barbarian was outstanding. I think that the only reason that it was so good was that I assume from the coversation between Arnold and John Millus, was that they were together at the same time watching the movie together.
