If you made a movie, what extras would you put on the dvd?

continuing from DvdNut's question of making a movie, and now it was a huge hit at the box office. what extras would you put on the dvd?
for me there would be
-audio commentary by me
-featurette
-deleted and extended scenes
-music videos
-making of the music videos
-trailers
-Pop-Up Video version of movie
and i'd come up with an ultimate edition in another year or so just to mess with fans.
anybody else?

A Inside The Set Of The Movie Walk-Around Multi-Angle Feature. You Move On Your Own And You Can Move It Whichever Way At The Time
Also, Some Other Sweet Stuff But I Won't Mention Here.

------------------
I bought a pack of gum yesterday - Bubblicious - Watermelon. I know everyone's saying "Hold off, there's gonna be a special edition with remastered flavor and at least it won't be in that awful paper wrapper." But you know what, I figured it's worth it. I mean if it's not that good, I can always auction off the rest of the pack on eBay. And then if Bubblicious revisits the Watermelon gum, I can use the money to re-purchase the upgrade.

I like the pop-up-video idea. Has this ever been done?

Every possible feature ever thought of in a limited edition 8 Disc set including a peice of the directors's (my) brain after it was lobodimized.

Final Fantasy has a Pop-up style feature - when you watch the movie in storyboard form.

Anamorphic Widescreen 2.35:1 (the only ratio worth filming in! )

DTS 5.1

Dolby Digital 5.1 EX

Dolby Surround 2.0

All theatrical teasers and trailers, as well as TV spots, generated for the film

Isolated film score

Original screenplay (both first and final drafts)

"Making Of" documentary, in the omniscient, "turn on the camera and go" style of "The Hamster Factor" from TWELVE MONKEYS or "The Beginning" from STAR WARS, EPISODE I: THE PHANTOM MENACE

Deleted scenes and outtakes (bloopers) in 2.35:1 anamorphic widescreen

Poster concepts and final campaign

I would not include EPKs, and I'm shaky on storyboards (immeasurably important to a film's production but never one of the more fun-to-look-at DVD extras) and commentary tracks (there's an indefinably weighty and dare I say magical--in the sense of a magician never giving away his secrets--quality to letting a film speak on its own merits...how that corresponds to my hypocritical inclusion of a big "making of" documentary above, I couldn't tell ya... )

I'm in the midst of making a movie right now, and once it's finished, I'll be producing the DVD. Just in case you cared, the movie's called "Jesus Suave: The Movie", and it's an incredibly nonsensical surrealistic comedy.

The DVD will come in 4 editions, all released over a period of a year. The first edition will just be the regular version, and will definitely have a commentary track as the main feature, along with a poster concepts gallery, a trailer, and intorductions to the movie and the special features by me and a few other people from the production. I might do a 5.1 version, but I on't think I want to take teh time to. It all depends.

Then, there's the "special edition", which will have no additional features at all, but will feature a "special" gold star sticker inside the packaging.

The next edition is called, appropriately, the "REALLY special edition". It will be priced at $44.99, and will contain none of the extra features, 2 gold stars and a special message from me telling them that they are cool becuase they gave me more money!

And finally the last edition will be the "so special you'll crap your pants when you see it" edition, which will be the first version, except with an excerpt from david Grimshaw's "Mexico Documentary" editied into the beginning of the film.

Keep in mind that I don't have a distributor for this film yet, and that while these discs will be produced for my personal use, consumers probably won't be able to get them until years after now or never.

Thanx,
Brook

Both Bring It On and Legally Blonde have what I'd term 'pop-up' video text.

Also, the "so special you'll crap your pants when you see it edition" will have a dubbed track where different actors do the voices of the characters. This will be the only audio option on the "so special you'll crap your pants edition"

Thanx,

The movie is about a group of stage actors who team up with a woman with a split personality and a boring, normal protagonist to follow "The Captain" on his journey to defeat El Gato Muy Gordo. El Gato Muy Gordo is a rennegade cat who's trying to destroy the Earth, so that humans are forced to become slaves in an underground Vaseline paradise located beneath the surface of Mars. It is in this underground Vaseline paradise where very overweight space cats wait to be served by the lowly lifeform of humanity.

That's the actual plot, and it doesn't make too much sense. This movie is the kind of comedy that a lot of people would hate because it has a lot of sections that are excrutiating to sit through, and a lot of the comedy in the film doesn't appeal to everyone. Beleive it or not, there actually is a point behind this movie. I can't tell you the point, though, as that would give away the end of the movie.

Thanx,
Brook

right now we're just starting to film, but I hope to make it a very speedy production, and have it all edited andd done by the end of spring or early summer of 2002. We're doing it on Mini DV, and are editing it via Final Cut Pro on a Macintosh G4. I'll probably post a trailer online as soon as I get a chance to cut one together. In any case, I did mention David Grimshaw's "Mexico Documentary", a film which is just about done. I produced and edited this documentary, and feel that it's pretty entertaining (to me atleast).

Anyway, I posted up a small clip from that documentary, which you can see here...

REMEMBER! You need Quicktime to see this movie!
