Hilary and Edward T set out to do a director's commentary on "Avatar(d)", but as always, wind up completely off-topic and wind up discussing motivation and suspension of disbelief in fiction.

Director's Cut

Hilary and Edward T set out to do a director's commentary on "Avatar(d)", but as always, wind up completely off-topic.

They are watching the film while recording, and hit the pause button. Things quickly go away from the film as they discuss miscommunication, working at the airport, backhoes & piles of dirt, the Incredible Bulk, and $6000 of hot tub work.

They try to get back on track, but instead they become Siskel & Ebert. They address action movies in general, how "Avatar(d)" is like a porn movie (or a romance novel), suspending disbelief, "The Lord of the Rings", Liv Tyler, perceptions of others & the world as a whole and Richard Gere in "Dr. T and the Women".


This is what Edward T used to do every day: A good example of a jetliner pushback on video.
--TURN THE SOUND DOWN FIRST!--
THERE'S A HUGE BLAST OF NOISE AT THE BEGINNING!
-Notice at :33 seconds how little he's turning the steering wheel of the
pushback vehicle, and then look at how much the plane is turning to the right.

Enjoy!
