Scott Pilgrim has so many good visual gags and references that the DVD has an on-screen Trivia Track, as well as the ususal audio commentaries. It's really handy, and about as unobstructive as subtitles.

PlantRobot posted:In Master and Commander there's a shot of Stephen clenching and flexing his hand before he starts to play the cello. It's only meaningful after you’ve read the books and know this is becausehe was captured while spying and tortured by the French I wish they would just make a sequel already! It sounds weird to say it, but as far as crossover appeal, Master and Commander was the best Star Trek movie since the Wrath of Khan. Russel Crowe said he wants to do a sequel and the other books in the series are just as good!!

Phy posted:I've always heard that it is really expensive and time-consuming to film ship movies, especially at sea. The Pirates movies are kind of anomalous, but it helps that the first one made three times as much as Master and Commander. Which is why Peter Weir shot most of it in a tank. It saved a lot of money, and let the movie be filmed a lot more efficently. Horatio Hornblower ran from 1998 to 2003 so it can't be that expensive to film nautical, historical films. Plus, it was on A&E, they're not exactly known for having a big budget. (Which also explains why they've switched to being yet another reality TV network  )Actually, a lot of the production details are pretty interesting. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_and_Commander:_The_Far_Side_of_the_World#Production e: a great subtle moment in that film, was when Jack is going through the French captain's cabin after the final battle. There are sheets of music blown all over the cabin and then the camera quickly pans to a horn. This really fits the theme that that French captain is just like Jack.
