I really want to believe that this is a real thing, and not just something some dude cut together and put on Youtube. If it is real, though, we should all be very, very frightened that Arnold Schwarzenegger managed to become governor of a state that has occasionally been counted in the top ten economies of the entire world, were it a nation itself. I'm not going to explain why...just watch.

The Conan the Barbarian commentary is just as hilarious.

Better than Steve Zahn's commentary for Joy Ride?

Well, in his defense he... eh... knows what's happening in the movie? That indicates some degree of cognition? I guess? Some awareness? Sentience, even? Oh, who am I kidding? I got nothing.

To quote my Youtube comment on that:

Oh god, I own this but never listened to the commentary.

*goes immediately*

This is totally real. I like the part where Paul Verhoeven tries to get a word in edgewise. (Hint: It's every part!) Part of me thinks Schwarzenegger did this to cover up Verhoeven's awful Dutch accent. (I'm allowed to say this, I'm Dutch. Dutch accents are terrible and Verhoeven's is particularly bad.)

@TreyoftheDead: I second the Conan commentary. Arnold is astounding.

He should do commentaries for other peoples films. It would basically just be him telling you what is happening on screen, it could be like Arnold's audio description for the blind.

I have almost every Arnold movie on DVD and I've never listened to the commentaries..but now I will.

As the maker of this video I can confirm that's some real-ass commentary, taken straight from my own DVD copy.

Yeah, this commentary is a legendary source of amusement between a friend and I. My favourite part is where he points out the animatronic work in the nose-probe scene.

"That's me.... that's still me... THAT'S THE PUPPET!"

I love Arnold commentaries. They are so hilarious. The only commentaries I can listen to multiple times.

In all honesty, that's the best movie commentary I've ever seen. At least it's entertaining and not putting me to sleep like the other commentary I've heard.

I remember there was a bit of a stink about this commentary because Arnold demanded $70,000 to do it.

Commentaries are usually done for free but Arnie's like "Fuck that noise. I need some cheddar, yo!" Or something like that.

@buzz_clik: I am starting to think you secretly run Whiskey Media. You are always popping up and random ass times. I am onto you and your little Illuminati agenda.
