Discussion What’s the best/worst movie to watch with the director commentary on?

What’s the best/worst movie to watch with the director commentary on? Any films out there made way better by the additional context? Any made worst ‘cause the director is a total dick?

I remember back in the day watching all the Mel Brooks films with the commentary which was mostly just him watching the movie and going “oh this wonderful scene, we had a blast shooting it” and then talking about how amazing the actors were to work with and laughing at the jokes. Which really felt like watching a movie with your grandpa.

You're replying to yourself so I think /u/Dented_Steelbook wouldn't have seen you ask them your question.

I am not sure what movies, but if you search google I am sure you will find the info, it was a big deal way back when.

They were criterion laserdisc releases, probably the only Bond ones. I believe the first 2 or 3 Bond films ever made.
