I think asking him what his next project is would be a bad idea.  The frog question is good, although I think he's explained that enough in other interviews....

I'd like to know if he's ever going to use Fiona in any of his films...or her music...

I would also ask if those rumors about PDL's scrapped sci-fi alien thread were true....but that could be dangerous too.

If there was a commentary track, it would defeat the purpose of it being Superbit because it would take up disc space, losing the best picture and sound quality possible.

that's actually a decent question to ask 'what are you up to now' or something, but don't phrase it in such a way that he could give you an ambigious answer

Ah right superbit...i guess it is nice giving the movie its own cd to itself...i still love commentary.  Boogie Nights definetly has some of the best commentary out there.

dont ask him anything. just shake his hand and say 'thanks.' that's what I did. He smiled and said 'you're welcome.'
and that was that.

Ask him if he's soured a bit on Magnolia...cos it seems he has. No, wait, don't. Ask him his thoughts on the Psycho remake. That's a good one.
It's like, how much more black could this be? And the answer is none. None more black.

bullshit. they could have scrapped the stereo track and added the commentary. also, there are superbits out there that are much longer than 90 mins (adaptation, fifth element, panic room, etc...) meaning they have smaller bitrates. pta didn't want a commentary track, it was completely his decision. don't make excuses when there needn't be.

QuoteCan you ask him why he made the choice to shoot Barry in his apartment that certain way... not the camera bump, but the shot where Barry sits down, and the camera re-frames to put him on extreme frame right. Like a security camera movement, almost. I think he does it twice, and I always wondered why, what was his reasoning behind it...?


I've always thought that it was to show the empty table and empty chair on the other side of the table, to show how lonely he is in this desperately lonely and vulnerable moment of his life.

But still ask him, because that may not be accurate.

The reason he didn't do a commentary is because if he had, then there wouldn't be anything for internet losers like us to bitch about.

He left it out because he loves us.
