I just thought of something to add to my earlier post. With regards to actors, directors, etc. asking for extra payment to do commentaries; I'm not too opposed to it. Of course I'll also expect that the commentaries that they provide better be good.
That goes, too, for the extras. One major disappointment was "Mild-Meld", which for Trekkies like me who grew up on Classic Star Trek was probably one of the best last chapters written about the franchise. It's a no-holds-barred very intimate 90-minute dialogue between Trek legends William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy wherein they openly discussed previous subjects they wouldn't even touch on interviews, e.g. Nimoy's alcoholism, Shatner's womanizing, the animosity Shatner generated from the lesser stars, etc.
The material, as I said, is great. The rip-off was the alleged 20-minute behind-the-scenes documentary. It was just one glorified trailer, picking scenes from the actual dialogue! If you've seen the original 10-minute trailer downloaded from the Net, then you've seen half of this documentary! And the 20 minutes culled from the actual material practically only leave you 70 minutes of original unviewed film!
I'm glad a relative gave me this as a Christmas present. I was prepared to buy the DVD solely because of this documentary, hoping to see more treats and listen to a lot more confessions. Had I spent good money on this, sising sisi ako---because as the DVD stands, I would just have settled for the VHS.
And, yes, "Mindmeld" is R1.
