He just spends the whole movie praising everything. "Look at that." "Isn't that amazing." "Great dialogue."

Probably the most enthusiastic commentary ever recorded. Perfect for cheering yourself up on gloomy weather days (Very handy if you live in Britain)

This is more like it. Mike talks about working with Dino De Laurentiis, casting rugby players as Hawkmen, Sam Jones got mugged before the first day of shooting, how naff the effects are and differences between this flick and the comics. Flash fans, the commentary is for you.

A great, truly candid commentary. Hodges is fascinating and his stories of working with Dino De Laurentiis are both amusing and terrifying.
