To have a good audio commentary on a porn movie, IMO, you need at least 2 people on the commentary, and ideally at least one of them need to have been in the movie as a performer. And then you let them gossip about the other performers in the movie and reminisce about problems and bloopers they faced while making the movie. It's hard to get that with just the director talking all by himself. And I definitely prefer for the commentary to be for the whole length of the movie. I've seen some porn movies where the commentators only talk during the dialogue scenes and just play the original movie audio during the sex scenes. Hello, I can always turn the commentary off whenever I want, I don't need for you to shut up during the sex. If I'm going to watch the movie with the commentary on, I want to hear about how awkward that one position was, or how the decision to shoot the scene in such a manner was a last minute improvisation, etc.

Sadly, the computer where I had my complete wantlist of DVDs with commentaries died a few months ago and I've been having to recreate it with the help of this site. It's slow, but it's there. I really wish there was a way you could do a search for this feature. But maybe I'm one of the very few who's really interested in it.

And I agree with the poster who dislikes having the commentary turned off during the sex scenes. The first DVD with commentary I ever saw was "Misty Beethoven: the Musical" and I thought it was really interesting hearing Veronica Hart & Chloe talk while people were fucking on screen and then commenting on the cumshots or their bodies or dicksizes or whatever. Thankfully, most Wicked & VCA movies that I've bought encourage their people to talk all the way through (although it sometimes presents a problem when the commentary is on a classic movie and the people talking are looking at things they did 20-30 years ago. They seem to get silent with nostalgia). Sin City is the worst about shutting up during the sex (and having a sync problem with the dialogue when you're listening to the commentary track). Adam & Eve might also have this issue, but the only movie I have from them is "Rawhide", so maybe it's a 1-movie thing.

Anyway, thanks a lot for all the recommendations and suggestions. I now have a lot of leads to run with and find some movies with commentaries, and I'll order them through the net rather than get Aus releases.
