McG lets someone get under his skin on the commentary track for the critically-reviled CHARLIE'S ANGELS: FULL THROTTLE:

"...and you see from the girls' performances that, I mean, they're just really having a good time out there and, you know, it's interesting that some people found that infuriating that, you know "Hey, they're having such a good time making this picture," which I thought was strange and just goes into the fundamental take if you hate yourself, you will hate Charlie's Angels."

And later, he pats himself on the head for making one of the few Hollywood motion pictures without substance...

"Drew and I have this thing where we say it's, you know, people always try to make films that contemplate the human condition, and we feel that it's even a greater contribution to make a film that helps you forget the human condition."

Yeah. Mm-hmm.

Edit: Whoa, I just realized I listened to the entire audio commentary for this big pile of stupid. What's wrong with me?!?!?!

He spends the whole film describing what's happening on screen and says "This is cool shot." "This is really fun and sexy." "He/she was great to work with."

It's just a real love letter to himself.

They talk about what was originally going to happen. A little too much praising, though. I was disgusted when Marianne said that Justin Theroux had a good Irish accent. As an Irishman myself, I'm insulted.
