I'd love to hear a commentary track by someone who hates a movie,
ripping it to shreds. Or a track by an expert who disagrees with the
facts in a film. Or a track by someone with a moral or
philosophical argument to make. Or even a Wayne's World style track
from dudes down in the basement who think The Mummy Returns is way
cool.

It could be said that Pink Floyd did
this to the Wizard of Oz (but that is still
unsubstantiated) so the technique is actually quite old, and Roger Ebert has
some excellent ideas for commentary. I can just see Mark, Kelly, Rob and I doing commentary for movies
like WarGames (“Cool!”), Hackers (“What a piece of
dung!” “But it has Angelina Jolie's breasts!”), Swordfish (“What a load of
crap!” “But it has Halle Berry's
breasts!”) or even The Net (“What a horrible
film!” “And it doesn't even have Sandra Bullock's breasts in
it!”).
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
