I'm Rob. On this site, I post my alternative audio commentaries on movies.
One can glean more details about who I am, where I've been, and how obnoxious I can be sometimes by listening to the aforementioned commentaries. (Seriously, it's almost like all I do is talk during those things.)
I craft these commentary tracks as easygoing acts of impromptu film criticism, my half of a conversation about movies between myself and the person listening. Sometimes I say crazy things with which you will disagree. Other times I get a minor detail wrong, and a wave of fanboy self-satisfaction will wash over you when you realize you caught my tiny error regarding something utterly meaningless. Either way, I like it when listeners explain my craziness to me, or enlighten me about whatever else is on their mind. (Send feedback to robcompodcast@gmail.com. We'll debate the merits, then hug it out.)
Thanks for stopping by.

Robert Redford discusses strategy for the staring contest he's about to have with the camera RC-2013-114: All the President's Men (1976) Your browser does not support this audio Perhaps the greatest typewriter fetishist movie ever! Focusing on storytelling, I describe how Goldman's script hinges on scene-by-scene conflict and speculate about the mysterious Ephron-Bernstein draft. I argue that Woodstein's reporting was unbiased, then revel in my own bias by audibly scoffing at the idea that Nixon was a "complicated" figure who "also did some good things." Amid analysis of the actual movie, I explain why Nixon was a racist, astonishingly petty, and hopelessly corrupt scoundrel who got off easy. Gordy Willis and John Dean get praised. G. Gordon Liddy and the Intelligent Design-promoting crybaby known as Ben Stein get criticized. I screened the Blu-Ray. To sync, hit "pause" when the Warner Bros. logo fades to black. Show Notes Redford's documentary Goldman's script Woodstein reflect on Watergate The breathtaking inanity of Ben Stein Mary McCarthy's book The Nixon tapes are here and here When I said Nixon was "a horrible human being," I was referring to him doing things like... Ordering break-ins Suggesting that black people make bad spies because they're stupid Saying Jews "own the media" Using the IRS to "pound" his critics Listen to the mp3, or prolong our long national nightmare about Apple by getting it on iTunes.
