The first thing that you notice when listening to Cody talking is how well Ellen Page mimicked her way of speaking. Reitman tends to dominate the track and, not surprisingly, talks about filmmaking aspects like the casting of minor roles, the attention to details for the sets, how he shot certain scenes, and so on. Cody offers her occasional two cents with her best being her shout-out to the much beloved TV show My So-Called Life in one particular scene. This is pretty decent track filled with lots of anecdotal stories and production details.

This chat is almost as intricately detailed as the film itself. Was shocked that Cody pointed out aspects of her script that Reitman hadn't even entertained at the point they recorded the commentary! And it's refreshing (or maybe just validation) that Cody is just as funny and unique as her script is (so many screenwriters are dull beasts compared to their creations).
