Paul is doing audio commentaries now?! It must have been only a matter of time after writing essays for 88 Films. Now let’s petition an Enter the Dragon commentary from him! (Along with bodyguards for the response to it)
I said I’d do it on the one condition they simply refer to me as ‘Expert’ in the Special Features, and they listened. 🙂 (Just joking, hoping I’m not billed so ambiguously on the actual release!) It was definitely outside my comfort zone, but hopefully it’ll impart some new information about the movie that new comers won’t be familiar with. As for an ‘Enter the Dragon’ commentary track….where do I sign!?
This movie looks like a good time overall. 88 films keep them coming
