Audio Commentary: Adventures in Babysitting with screenwriter David Simkins

We were shocked to discover that 1987's Adventures in Babysitting
doesn't have a DVD or Blu Ray audio commentary.  After
interviewing screenwriter David Simkins in 2022, we asked if he
would be willing to record an audio commentary for Adventures in
Babysitting and to our delight he agreed.  

David shares funny and insightful behind-the-scenes stories and
talks about how the movie came together including working with
Debra Hill and Lynda Obst.  We discuss the challenges of
shooting both in Chicago and Canada.  David talks about how
the famous blues bar scene came together, casting Elizabeth Shue,
working with Chris Columbus and how Sara's obsession with Thor
came to be.

There is an issue with the films audio.   At roughly 6
minutes into the movie, the audio of the film can be heard during
the commentary.  We've done our best to reduce the film's
audio track but it was impossible to totally remove it.  We
recommend turning the audio down on your TV or device, and let
our audio take over.  

One other call out, we recorded the audio commentary watching the
PG-13 version of the movie not the one on Disney+.  

We believe this is the only audio commentary available for
Adventures in Babysitting.  We can't thank David Simkins
enough for agreeing to do this with us.  We hope you enjoy
it as much as we did!
