Do you watch dvd special features?

7 Comments

I usually watch all the bonus features. For one thing, I reckon I paid for it, so may as well get all the value I can. My favorite is usually the documentary-style Making of feature. Even when I didn't enjoy the movie, I find interviews etc. really interesting, as it helps me understand the maker's vision and how and why they failed to achieve it in my opinion.

I'm a geek so the bonus features are the best part 19
only if they're not too long 4
only if I really liked the movie 25
only some of them 6

    I love bonus features! That's partly why I'll buy a dvd. I love the commentary as well. At first I was like commentary is useless but it depends on the actors in the movie and it can be really hillarious. The best part of bonus features are the bloopers. I hate it when a movie doesn't have them.

    I love bonus features! especially if I'm on a long car ride, then I watch it 1 time without commentary, then 1 time with. Because I'm insane. And I apparently don't get bored easily.

    Sometimes. Lately, I tend not to because I feel it can ruin the magic of the movie.

    i often watch them when i have time.
    even the commentary tracks.

    hell the actor commentary to Boondock Saints II was almost funnier than the movie itself!

    it depends how bored i am. sometimes i watch them because im too lazy to get up and change the dvd.

    whether or not the movie was good does not really make a difference for me whether i watch them or not. sometimes the special features can take away the illusion like you said.

    however with any movie good or bad or how bored or not i am i ALWAYS want to watch bloopers.

    if im really bored ill even watch the whole movie again with the commentary....

    the only thing i will never watch is the trailers
