Alternate Audio Tracks for Movies

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the something-fun-to-do dept.

Patrick Stein writes "DVD Tracks is a forum for the distribution of home-brew, alternate audio tracks for movies. Inspired by Roger Ebert's column in Yahoo!Internet Life entitled You, Too, Can Be a DVD Movie Critic, DVD Tracks puts you behind the microphone to talk about your favorite flicks." Cool idea, but there's only one track. (Groundhogs day?)

    The latest batch of MST3K DVDs to have been released have this feature. Or rather, they're double-sided DVD's with the original cut of the movie on one side and the MiSTed cut on the other.

    MST3k means "Mystery Science Theater 3000". It was a television show where a bad movie was shown in the background, and in the foreground there was a shadow of some recurring characters (Joel/Mike, Crow, Tom Servo) so that it looked like the recurring characters were watching the movie inside a theater. The recurring characters heckled the movie. (It was a lot funnier than it sounds.)
