Topic: Question about the SEVEN DVD

Just got this deluxe little disc in the mail yesterday. It promises four different audio tracks, including commentary on the sound featuring Howard Shore. But I can't isolate two of the four tracks promised on Disc 1. is it an "Easter egg" or something?What little of the commentary I HAVE heard so far is a bit schizophrenic ... Morgan Freeman sounding terribly self-important in one room, David Fincher and Brad Pitt goofing off in another, although towards the end, Fincher goes off on a fascinating rant about the difficulties of working with marketing departments.
Actually, both SEVEN discs are logistical nightmares compared to the brilliant DVD of FIGHT CLUB, which I don't yet own but have borrowed.
I suppose with more time I could figure this out myself, but I am lazy, and what else are YOU guys here for?

(That damn Columbia House sent me BLAZING SADDLES instead of THE BOYS FROM BRAZIL. Nothing wrong with BLAZING SADDLES, but I don't want to OWN it right now, if ever. They also sent me MISSION IMPOSSIBLE 2, which I didn't ask for either, although I'm tempted to keep it, since, hey, it's John Woo. Any thoughts on that picture? I missed it in theaters. I haven't opened the shrinkwrap yet.)

Not quite sure what the problem is. If you can't get to all four of the commentary tracks, then you might have a physically defective DVD.Otherwise, try going through the menus to choose the commentaries...

I loathed Mission: Implausible 2, but then again, I hate John Woo.So far, I haven't heard anything bad about the Se7en DVD... I was wondering if anyone could tell me how it stacks up to Criterion's laser.

Worth owning both.

Listen to Swash, Rocco. The only person I knew of who liked Mission Impossible 2 now drinks steak out of one of those twisty straws.John Woo should get the **** out of America.
