HOW HIGH

The DVD Commentary Track for How High sounds exactly the way you'd

think a Commentary Track by two pot smoking rappers would. 

In the beginning of the film, Method Man recalls his motivation for
a pot dealing scene by saying, "All I remember is that this
dude's breath smelled like shit so I was just trying to get this scene
over as quick as possible". Redman and Method Man also tackle
tougher subjects like how not to get too "excited" when
you're filming a scene with a "hot lady" and "she's
all up in your shit

You also learn a little bit about their off screen personalities.
For example, Red Man was repeatedly yelled at by the director for touching
and messing with the extras.Their two dormmates in the film were getting
laid all the time. Neither of them have seen any of Spaudling Gray's
work besides what he did in the film, but they plan to see it soon.
Meth uses peer pressure to get people high and he can roll a great
blunt even with the studio's fake weed. It's like the black version
of the Good Will Hunting DVD commentary.

There's a great moment in the commentary where Method Man is talking
about his acting range. In the scene, he's trying to seduce Lark Voorhies
(Lisa from Saved by the Bell). He says, "Look at this, if
I was a girl I'd give me the pussy." Red Man concurs and
then Method Man quickly recovers by saying, "with respect
to my wife and kid." Speaking of respect, Method Man is
also careful not to harass another actress with his commentary, when
he stops himself from calling her breasts, "titties" and
instead calls them "headlights", "in case
her grandparents are watching".

The most interesting thing about the movie commentary is that they
refuse to talk about Jeffery Jones (The principle from Ferris Bueller's
Day Off and alleged pederist). Now remember these guys aren't afraid
to say anything. They talk at length about how ugly certain extras
are and what girls are hot in the film. They also love everyone in
the film, they can't find nicer things to say about them. They give
a shout out to Hector Elizondo and the gap in his teeth, because "that's
a great spliff holder" and to Scruncho who's serving time
in the Penn, "Keep your head up". They honestly
are good guys but when it comes to Jeffrey Jones, it's just a broad
and derisive "No Comment". What could he have possibly
done during the shooting of the film to offend their sensibilities,
it must have been bad, but creepy bad. The thought of it grosses me
out. If you know, please email me.

This is a DVD you must own. After you're done listening
to the commentary you're going to want to hang out with Meth and RedMan.
You'll be hard
pressed to find a commentary track that is more fun.
