iTunes Extras Commentaries Master List

[ManOfTheForest]

These are new films added to the Irish Store* with commentaries

Coco
Darkest Hour
Maze Runner Death Cure (the other two movies also have commentaries)


I don't think anyone here has mentioned The Last Jedi, but it also has a director's commentary.

If they gave it to us, they gave it to everyone.

Walking Tall (2 Audio Commentary tracks) - starring the Rock

I like Walking Tall but I also found it disappointing - I haven't seen it since the cinema release and don't quite remember why for either opinion.

However, a fun movie from The Rock and a commentary by themas himself are enough to put this on my wish list.

I wish he did more action films like this though - got himself a Die Hard/Jason Bourne type role to along with the big VFX movies.

[ManOfTheForest]

The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen also has a commentary.

I can't tell whether this is a good movie or a bad one or even whether I like it or not but I used to watch it every time it came on Film 4 and I almost bought it today as soon as I saw it had a commentary but I decided to wait for major drop in price - so I guess that means I like it but not a lot.

Two more movies are 4.99 right now on iTunes with Audio Commentary and not listed:
Man Down
Extraction

Previously listed movies Green Room and The Witch are also 4.99 right now.

By confirmed do you mean someone who has bought the movies switched to the commentary track or just looked in the preview window on iTunes/AppleTV ?

Either one of those would be confirming it. The preview version of iTunes Extras is actually built (real time by iTunes) from the existing actual Extras menus. If you see it in the preview, it _IS_ in the Extras. It's not physically possible to have something in the preview that isn't really in the Extras...

[B_Jones]

Wanted to add three more - seems like commentaries are coming at us fast!
I Can Only Imagine (2018)
Acts of Violence (2018)
Small Town Crime (2018) (3 commentary tracks)

Yes, that is what I thought but those are the only way of knowing what is in the iTunes Extras, aren't they? So I was confused as what other method a person would have for iTunes Extras information.

[Rik1138]

Well, the descriptor for the Extras I suppose... That could say commentary by accident... Someone could have assumed that since the Bluray has it, the extras would...?
Sometimes it's hard to confirm on the preview if the commentary is a little deeper into the menus than you can get in the preview mode... I know there's a couple that owning the movie is the only way to actually see that it's there...
Just kind of guessing.
I'd say if someone listed it in this thread, just assume they are correct until someone says otherwise...

I mean, seen the commentary track on iTunes/Apple TV or the preview screens.
We just don’t want speculative tracks for upcoming releases etc.

Amelie has the director's commentary in Ireland and the UK.

The preview on the Irish Store shows 3 commentary tracks on Fantastic Four and The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen here also has more than one commentary track but the preview gives no details (there is also a trivia track - is this considered a commentary or is in an alternate version of the film?).

The 2 'US only' commentaries on Fantastic Four (2005) are actually available in US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, UK and Ireland.
Everyone else only gets 1 commentary.

League of Extraordinary Gentlemen has a 'Producer/Cast Commentary' and a 'Costume Designer/Make-Up Supervisor/Miniatures Creator commentary'. The same ones present on the Blu-ray.

For Fox movies, you can almost always check the blu-ray review here to see what the extras are. They are very particular about putting _ALL_ of the extras from the blu-ray in the iTunes Extras, if it's at all possible. (Truly interactive pieces aren't possible...)

Which explains things like the Trivia Track. I wouldn't call it either a commentary or alt version... It's basically the movie with little text cards that appear throughout the film providing info about something on screen. On the Blu-ray, it's actually a subtitle track...

Fox is indeed the best distributor for supplying iTunes Extras*. Should the the sale to Disney go ahead (and I hope it does if for no other reason than the first Star Wars will belong to Disney) or whoever I hope that that attention and respect for iTunes customers spreads into the parent company and isn't squashed by it.

*In fact I find myself tempted buy the first two Fantastic Four movies because of the iTunes Extras even though I'm not a fan of the films themselves. Unfortunately Fox haven't put the commentaries on Daredevil (which I do like) or Elektra (which is okay) but I'd say that is only a question of when rather than if.

I noticed that Predator in iTunes has changed its cover image and was disappointed that they still haven’t added in the extras

The covers have changed to coincide with the release of the 4K Trilogy set.
Remains to be seen if we’ll get any extras come our way.

Were the commentaries added to these recently?

Also, The Transformers: The Movie iTunes Extras seem to be US store only. No extras on the Irish or UK - I did a quick check of few other countries and the film isn't listed at all.
