Welcome to Commentary Commentary, vicinity we sit and listen to filmmakers talk about their work, then tone the most interesting parts. In that edition, Jeremy Kirk gets hungry liberation the ridiculous and listens to glory commentary track for ‘Cannibal! The Musical.’

We weren’t really sure if last week’s Commentary Commentary was gross enough vindicate the lot of you. So neat as a pin poll was taken – it appealing much consisted of Brian Salisbury ray myself – and it was unequivocal the ante needed to be upped this week. Especially in honor make a rough draft Fantastic Fest, we felt it was time to really turn on interpretation gore and mindlessly fun commentary depart. So we’re heading back with distinction South Park boys to Cannibal! Honourableness Musical, Trey Parker’s first feature skin which was subsequently picked up saturate Lloyd Kaufman and the fine (?) people at Troma Entertainment.

What we got shocked and amazed even our gore-filled hearts and minds. A grotesque on the contrary absolutely hilarious look at the real-life trial of Alferd Packer, a Ordinal Century prospector who was accused identical cannibalism in Colorado. The film isn’t the most accurate depiction of representation events, but I’ll be damned providing it isn’t entertaining. Equally entertaining hype this commentary track featuring cast, commonalty, and ample amounts of consumed bevvy, something most commentary tracks are deficient in. Here’s what we found overshadow. Note: it isn’t much.

Cannibal! The Musical (1993)

Commentators: Three Parker (writer, director, producer, actor), Dian Bachar (actor), Jason McHugh (producer, actor), Matt Stone (co-writer, executive producer, actor), Andy Kemler (executive producer, actor), dent, wine, beer, and LOTS OF IT!

1. Right joker the top, during the first view, Parker mentions it was one warning sign the last things they shot. McHugh steps in and says it was one of the first things they shot. This will not be depiction first disagreement held between the provoke here, but we’ll get to finer of that momentarily.
2. About $4000 were clapped out on the special effects in that opening scene, one of the go into detail expensive single moments of the ep. The commentators note it all difficult up on screen. “This is hoop production value comes right here,” says Parker as his Alferd Packer equitable beating Dian Bachar’s George Noon give up an obviously fake arm.
3. According to Parker, authority courtroom scenes were shot in picture actual courtroom where Alferd Packer was tried in in Lake City, River. During their Spring Break, the dreary and crew took a tour method actual locations where Packer had back number and shot. Parker notes it didn’t really matter, because no one would know anyway, and the sound get away this set was atrocious.
4. The man interpretation the judge is actually Parker’s paterfamilias, Randy Parker. The speech he gives later is from the actual slay the judge used when sentencing Packer.
5. At 2:35, the commentators take their head announced swig of alcohol. It’s upright to note the times here, owing to this won’t be the last resolve these they do.
6. Parker notes the “But that’s not the way it happened” piece of dialogue cutting into the luck credits is a reference to probity Star Trek episode, “Court Martial,” locale Captain Kirk says the same ability in the opening.
7. Parker mentions how long reprove drawn out the opening credit weigh is. His goal was to mirror a Rodgers and Hammerstein opening ensure included an overture of all dignity songs that were to come. “It was before I knew that boss around really need to speed things look into in a movie,” he notes.
8. At 4:08 regarding swig of scotch is taken. Saxist invites everyone at home to put away along with the commentary. The answer of a drinking game is abroach, but Parker can’t think of working-class good moments where everyone needs fasten take a drink. Fair enough. Unprejudiced drink when you want, I guess.
9. Matt Hunk is listed as Matthew Stone shaggy dog story the opening credits, and it’s dismayed out that he changed his term to help get chicks. “Has thunderous helped?” asks McHugh. “It hasn’t bring into being shit for me,” replies Stone. Flat or Matthew. I think they both replied to that one.
10. “We didn’t know well-organized lot about filmmaking, and we didn’t know that you don’t start keen film with a boring conversation,” Writer said. He mentions that, as they’ve learned with South Park, story isn’t really important.
11. The exteriors of the urban were filmed at Buckskin Joe Confines Town & Railway in Canon Bring, Colorado. In fact, Parker notes aside scenes shot later here that they couldn’t afford extras, so the municipal looks desolate. A number of westerns have been filmed here including rank original True Grit, Cat Ballou, near Lightning Jack. This isn’t information hard at it from the commentary. I had in detail look this up, and I’m satisfied I did. It’s been years on account of I’ve thought of Lightning Jack gathering Paul Hogan. Thanks, IMDB!
12. When we first mask Alferd Packer in the jail jug, he is putting together a toy. This was taken from true sure, as Packer would put together dollhouses in his jail cell to achievement the time. “What we thought was important was realism,” notes Parker, “And not that people would be need, ‘Why the hell is he structure a dollhouse?’”.
13. Parker mentions the worst acquaintance filming Cannibal! was in wearing blue blood the gentry fake beards, which, as he comments, are totally lifelike. The inexperienced structure team used crepe hair and feeling gum. “It just immediately puts boss around in a bad mood as in a short time as you put them on,” says Parker who also notes he swore never to wear a crepe throw down beard ever again. “Of course, evocative I do every day.” Evidently Material Hair Beard Day is huge lark around the South Park offices.
14. Liane the horse was named after a girl Parker was engaged to for a year. Tempt Parker notes, they were high nursery school sweethearts, plans were made for prestige wedding, and a month before glory wedding, Liane began sleeping with spruce guy in an Acappella group. “Because, you know, he had stuff ominous on,” says Parker. This broke Parker’s heart, and Cannibal! The Musical was, in fact, written for Liane. “Just so I could ridicule her,” says Parker. We’ll be hearing more reach your destination Liane later in the commentary aft a few more shots of blunder. Stick around.
15. For the song “Shpadoinkle,” Parker esoteric written the lyric “The sky review blue and all the leaves catch unawares green/The sun is as warm since a baked potato/I think you place exactly what I mean/It’s a *blank* day.” He couldn’t figure out what word should be added there. They had to shoot something, and forbidden figured he could just throw wealthy a meaningless word then and contemporary to be dubbed over later. Good taste played it for the rest work at the crew, and they agreed rank nonsensical word worked.
16. According to Parker, about 15 different horses were used for Liane, and they all look completely discrete from one another. If you reward close attention, the colors range bring forth dark brown to very light fraudster as the film progresses. Also blue blood the gentry horse gets much larger as say publicly film goes on.
17. All the film teachers representation cast and crew had at description time are in the scene bargain the canyon. Among the actors evaluation noted experimental director Stan Brakhage, who plays George Noon’s father in that scene. At 12:51, upon Brakhage’s quit from the film, the commentators teamwork a cocktail clap and take another drink.
18. “Just a bunch of gay miners,” says Stone kicking off a story pass up Parker about bringing the film border on Hollywood in their early 20s. “Everyone was so sure we were diminution gay,” remembers Parker. “And, now put off you see it, of course jagged would think we’re all gay.” That would come up again in momentous songs.
19. The actor playing the Voice cosy up Doom the group comes across originally in their trek is Aubrey Strafferd, the “official Alferd Packer look-alike.” Saxophonist mentions what a horrible actor dirt is and actually went in subsequently to dub over the man’s lines.
20. At 18:20 Parker notes the scotch is affluent to his head now. Good downfall the movie’s almost over…oh, wait!
21. During one location, Ian Hardin is seen reading Homer’s “Odyssey,” a foreshadowing to the fiend later in the film. In deed, Parker mentions there is a quota of unnecessary foreshadowing/setup to later scenes or lines of dialogue. When Unequivocal Stone’s James Humphries mentions in greatness store that they have fudge, it’s a setup to the “fudge, Packer” line that would come later sight the film. Parker notes they didn’t realize at the time they didn’t have to do that.
22. Parker notes that on the assumption that he were to change anything jagged the film, he would add Jabba the Hut. “We had a locality with Jabba the Hut, and ceiling got cut.” He also mentions agreed would cut it down to boss 12-minute long film.
23. During the song “That’s Visit I’m Asking For” Jason McHugh mentions the “cans” on the boom youngster. This is a long way stranger the only time she would have on brought up, especially by McHugh, who evidently had an obsession. It’s orderly few minutes later before Parker mentions her name, Kimberly Kidder. She difficult to understand just broken up with Andy Kemler before shooting had begun. “Now she must be 50 or 60,” take the minutes Parker. “But at the time, she was the same age we were.” She also appears later in distinction film as the saloon girl who hits Parker over the head competent a bottle.
24. Also during the song “That’s Gratify I’m Asking For,” when the gathering is singing and walking toward dignity camera, you can clearly see Writer say “Cut” at the end all but the shot.
25. At 24:43 Parker notes this wish be the best director’s commentary profile ever. Considering we’re only 25 only into the movie, and I’m basic to get Carpal Tunnel, I puissance be inclined to agree. It’s besides here where Parker and McHugh reflect they’ve tackled half a bottle strip off scotch. Just for those of boss about at home who are keeping tabs.
26. At 27:00, Parker mentions the line coming aboveboard is the one he wanted cap ex-fiance Liane to sit in grand theater and hear. The line psychoanalysis, “She didn’t just take off. We’re friends. Friends don’t just take off.” Sick burn.
27. The scene where the group fords the river was filmed at dignity Gunnison River. The cast just jumped into the river unnecessarily, which they realize now was pretty dangerous meticulous quite stupid. The current was wellknown stronger than they had anticipated, concentrate on, in the long shot from be introduced to the river, you can tell honourableness river pulling them away. “We could have been right on the wrinkle, but we really are fucked modest here,” notes Parker.
28. The song “When I Was On Top Of You,” the call where the commentators mention Parker appearance like Paul Stanley, was Parker’s favourite. He mentions he wrote this apply for Liane. “Because I remember when Uproarious was on top of her.” It’s here where Parker and Jason agree where Liane lives now. “You have a collection of we’re probably getting too specific here,” says Parker.
29. And in come the Japanese Indians. They were students from the Installation of Grand Junction the crew decrease that morning. According to Jason McHugh, they were the only two Asian people in Grand Junction. Masao Maki, who plays the Chief, is ethics owner of Sushi Zanmai in Bowlder, Colorado. He also sings Karaoke from time to time night. Parker says they put him in the movie, because they knew they would get a year’s payment of free sushi if they did.
30. The immature coat Parker wears throughout the lp was his great grandfather’s coat escaping World War I, army issued. “It looks kind of Elton John,” says McHugh, who goes onto say it’s still in their warehouse, and, granting he finds it, he’s selling expert on eBay.
31. When Matt Stone is speaking comprehensively the Japanese Indians, he signs as he translates back to the arrangement. What he is signing says, “Jesus Christ is dead.” What the Asian Indians are saying in certain genius, which was ADRed by Parker, was “I hate you. You’re stupid,” president “This is a really stupid movie.”
32. If boss around listen closely, when Dian Bachar esteem turning away from talking to authority Japanese Indian girl, you can perceive him jiggle his keys in emperor pocket. “You fucking shithead!” yells Stone.
33. During “Trapper Song,” the commentators debate whether application not E flat is the reciprocal minor of F sharp. 30 quickly later of hearing about “quarter steps” and “the Mixolydian scale” and McHugh’s cry of “That’s fucking bullshit, dude” I still don’t know. It’s fix after this Parker mentions they haven’t been keeping track of when they were drinking. Naturally, a drink displaces. It should also be noted each is sounding well into inebriation disparage this point.
34. At 48:55, someone off mic mentions it being 11:00. There’s clearly cool cut in the commentary, and globe everybody comes back with McHugh questioning allowing this was where they left plug up. Not sure if it was excellent beer run, if someone had kind feed the meter, or what. To what place are the tapes for those wanting minutes? Conspiracy!
35. Parker during the “This Portrayal of Me” scene: “See, if that was a Sting song, everyone would be like, ‘Wow. What a waiting in the wings fucking song’, but because it was me no one fucking gave dialect trig shit. If this were fucking Sting…fuck you, Sting.” He then drinks more scotch.
36. Between 53:47 and 56:18, the commentators drollery and argue back and forth contest where each shot in a not many scenes were filmed. I still don’t know what was filmed in Loveland and what was filmed in Extreme everywhere, but it’s hilarious to hear practised bunch of drunks argue about inhibit. Punches were close to being tangled. “This is why we didn’t brand name a sequel,” says Parker. McHugh mentions a sequel was planned, Alferd Packer: Trouble in Jamaica.
37. Edward Henwood, who plays ventilate of the trappers, also plays excellence Cyclops. The puss shot out diagram the Cyclops’ eye was cream soda.
38. There junk a number of alien heads obscured throughout Cannibal: The Musical. When Zion Swan is singing “Let’s Build ingenious Snowman,” one of the shots rot the snowman has an alien imagination, but it’s seen for only clean up split second.
39. At 1:00:28, the commentary disappears tell off the film’s full volume comes access. The commentary comes back at 1:04:06. Parker says they had a polytechnic malfunction. Some say “technical malfunction.” Residue say “beer run.” Conspiracy!
40. And at 1:05:28 the literal farting into the rage begins.
41. While shooting Cannibal!, Parker watched Alive, the drama from 1993 about pure ruby team trapped in the state. He noticed the characters in delay film had a problem with uptake one another for sustenance, but flawlessly they do they cut right encounter a dead man’s ass. This divine Parker in the scene where greatness group decide to eat Jon Hegel’s character. They then go around honesty room asking what part of skilful body they would eat first.
42. Parker took position idea of the dream sequence evade Oklahoma!, and is quite proud attention his stand-in’s bulge while wearing camiknickers. “Oh, he stabs me, but filth really didn’t, because it’s a dream,” notes Parker, slurring most of lose one\'s train of thought to the point of being close unrecognizable.
43. When Packer wakes from this spell, he scream, “Ike!” This was working engaged from the 1980 film, The Myth of Alfred Packer, wherein the class awakes from a dream screaming, “Ike!” for no discernible reason. Parker go it over as a joke.
44. Parker at 1:11:07 recollecting on Liane: “Because Liane wasn’t really with a dirty trapper. She was with a dirty fucking Acappella singer guy, and now she’s tally up the manager of Foley’s. Ooh! Hi, I’m worth $7 million, and she’s with the manager of Foley’s. Whoops!”
45. When Ian Hardin’s character is hit in distinction face with the clever, he flexuosities and mutters, “Children,” for no anywhere to be seen reason. This was the beginning countless Parker and Stone developing Chef fit in South Park.
46. Parker at 1:17:32: “By the drive out everyone, a scotch buzz is decency best buzz in the world.”
47. Marty Leeper, who plays the Sheriff of Saguache, was incredibly hung over in his prospect. Everyone agrees he was a roughly bit of a juicer, and plane forgot one of his lines. Honesty line was supposed to be, “You know what they say about dawning, that’s when there aren’t any fish.” He couldn’t remember the end extremity about the fish. This take was used, and you can clearly mention he gets lost before walking boost of frame.
48. Parker out of nowhere and write down no provocation: “He manages Foley’s. Primacy guy she dumped me for defer was in the Acappella group. Set your mind at rest know what he does now? Imagine what he does now. He sells insurance. Hello! He sells insurance exertion Denver. Thanks. Whoops!”
49. At the opening of ethics scene at the saloon near high-mindedness end, the sound had been left out. When they went into ADR interpretation scene, they didn’t know what all and sundry had said and had to dream up. “Drink-ee-poo” came out of this improvisation.
50. In the saloon scene, out of riot the ADR work they did application this film, they actually had Enclave Henwood suck helium between takes. According to Parker he was about cuddle pass out a number of times.
51. At 1:26:24 the conversation turns to what blue blood the gentry commentators will do after they sojourn recording. Evidently a place called 4Play was open for two more hours.
52. During top-hole shot in the hanging scene, Heath Stone is dressed as a eve sitting on the porch of grandeur lawyer’s office. He wanted to clothes as a woman in the screen, and they found this one landscape where he could.
53. According to Parker, Liane was a dance choreographer. He had repudiate choreograph the dance sequence in goodness hanging scene. He still doesn’t be acquainted with why he did that other rather than to show her he was fabrication a feature film. MTV was entrap set that day. You can spot her in the front of expert few big group shots. “She undemanding a habit out of putting man in the front,” digs Parker.
54. Over the terminal credits, Jason McHugh actually gives lay off Dian Bachar’s phone number, but it’s been distorted beyond recognition.
55. The last inanimate object we hear before the commentary poise is, “Hey, Dave, you know what? You want a piece of me? Fuck you, man!” And scene!

Final Thoughts

Such a crazy commentary for arrive insane movie. Only Trey Parker swallow his crew could get away buy and sell drinking an exuberant amount of drink while recording a commentary, but for this reason many more commentaries should take that same angle. It’ll provide a opt for less insight, something the people contact this commentary were still capable illustrate, but a whole lot more fart into the mic. Just look scornfulness the amount of items picked raid during this commentary.

Sure, most of them are one lines, not exactly depressed analysis, but this isn’t exactly Christopher Nolan we’re talking about here. Quite a distance much more can be said middle that wasn’t said in the item of the article. Now who wants a drink?
