People watch movies. Collectively, we spend millions, and I mean millions, of dollars on movies every week. We go to the theater, and when we really like the movie we buy it when it gets released on DVD so we can watch it again.

Those DVDs come with a lot more than just the movie on them. Some have games, interviews, deleted or extended scenes, alternate endings, and–of course–the gag reel.

But most DVDs also include some form of a commentary track, a feature that simply adds a soundtrack to the film with remarks from select individuals involved in its production.

Personally, out of all the movies I own and love, I have never re-watched a film in its entirety with the commentary turned on. However, OMG Lists thinks that I should. They’ve put together a list of “5 Fantastic Movie Commentaries” that we should all be sure to watch (best part: it’s spoiler-free).

Almost Famous sits comfortably at the top of the list, in large part to Cameron Crowe and the stories he shares about on-set antics. They also cite Paul Thomas Anderson’s commentary for Boogie Nights because, well, it’s one of the few that he has actually recorded for his films and he gets pretty personal.

I’ve never had a problem eating food from a gas station.  Just two weeks ago, I ate a couple of hot dogs purchased from a gas station.  They were delicious.  That’s not the first time I’ve eaten gas station food, and I doubt it will be the last.  There’s nothing like a fun food novelty. […]

Commissioner Roger Goodell gathered 32 NFL owners for one big question.  One of the league’s most wanderlust-stricken franchises is looking to move again.  The Oakland-Los Angeles-Oakland Raiders, tired of gutting it out in a run-down stadium, were once again looking for greener pastures.  Only the Miami Dolphins refused to cooperate.  With a vote of 31-1, […]

In 2006, an injury to Dallas Cowboys starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe opened the door for an undrafted free agent by the name of Tony Romo to take the helm of America’s Team and lead the Dallas Cowboys to an early playoff exit.  Bledsoe went from starter to afterthought in a season.  Now, the circle continues […]

For 89 years, Oscars has never had a major mistake.  The last few Oscars might have had a few flubs, but at least they never got the most important category of the night wrong.  Well, that’s now changed, all thanks to OG Bonnie and Clyde legends Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway.  When Faye Dunaway called […]

Tom Brady has been wildly successful, if controversial.  He’s the first quarterback ever to win five Super Bowls and only the second player to do so after Charles Haley.  Unlike Haley, Brady won all his Super Bowls with the same team, the New England Patriots.  The only thing that seems to be able to stop […]

Ben Affleck, no matter what you might think of him, is a talented actor and director.  He’s got the goods, but he’s smart enough to know when he’s in over his head.  All along, since he took on the mantle of Batman, he’s had his eyes on writing, directing, and starring as the Caped Crusader. […]

In May, students for the for-profit American College of Education were running into some problems.  Their access to email accounts and course information was locked down by Google, who had disabled their accounts.  The reason why?  A fired IT worker for the American College of Education locked the school out of their Google cloud account.
