We Hate Movies commentaries

[tripletap006]

I don't think a HD copy of the first Jackass exists because they shot it in 480p digital so there's not much point. They don't have a film element to scan.

Arggg...that does make sense

I don't know, I'd expect something like that if it were a made for TV movie or something like that, but Jackass: The Movie was released in theaters, and any imperfections in a 480p resolution movie would be amplified many times on a theater screen.

480p digital was the most practical way to shoot something like Jackass back in 2001/2002. There were a lot of small budget movies back then being shot in 480p because that was the height of digital at the time. Take a look at movies like The Anniversary Party or Spike Lee's Bamboozled.

28 days later... (2002) was shot on crappy DV* and got TWO theatrical releases. Almost mind boggling. Being a huge zombie fan since the 80's I saw it on opening, and again with the alternate ending in theaters.

*I know. The ending was 35mm, but it's a small portion of the movie.

I just rewatched a bit of Jackass: The Movie, and they definitely shot this on early 2000s DV. So yeah, there can never be a HD version.

Alrighty you guys, after quite a bit of tracking down today, I found the WHM Scanner Cop commentary track (co-starring Warwilf's own Richard Lynch!).  Now it already comes pre-ducked to the movie audio in the background and it's down pretty low...if anyone hates it as is, I can try to make my own mix.  I don't believe they did one for Scanner Cop 2 which also just came out in 4K but what a blessing that we're getting this and another movie commentary later this month from the gang.

Hey man, I just want to thank you for your work in putting this together. I watched last night and really enjoyed it. Thanks!
