[1:17] Brian Leahy: "Welcome to G4tv.com's liveblog from the Miramax: Extract Comic-Con 2009 Panel. We'll begin in just a few, stand by and thanks for joining!"
[1:33] Stephen Johnson: "Hey, party people in the blog say HO!"
[1:34] Stephen Johnson: "Ho! Ho!"
[1:34] Brian Leahy: "HO."
[1:35] Stephen Johnson: "(I apologize for that previous post!) I'm here at the Comic Con 2009 panel for Extract, an early look at a new Mike Judge film. Judge (Office Space, Idiocracy) is a personal hero, so I'm pretty excited for this one."
[1:36] Stephen Johnson: "Extract stars Jason Bateman, Mila Kunis, Kristen Wiig and Ben Affleck."
[1:37] Stephen Johnson: "We're on hold a bit, waiting for the panel to begin."
[1:38] Stephen Johnson: "And the panel begins! We're going to get an exclusive look at a bunch of Extract footage."
[1:38] Stephen Johnson: "Mike Judge takes the stage."
[1:39] Stephen Johnson: "Jason Bateman is next up. Huge round of applause for Bateman."
[1:39] Stephen Johnson: "And here comes Mila Kunas... oh, lord, is she smooooking."
[1:40] Stephen Johnson: "To answer a commenter: You can't see it anywhere. It's not broadcast."
[1:41] Brian Leahy: "Mila Kunis, not Kunas... :)"
[1:42] Stephen Johnson: "I was blinded by Mila KUNIS's beauty. Apologies."
[1:43] Stephen Johnson: "Judge says that Extract is a spiritual cousin to Office Space."
[1:44] Stephen Johnson: "It's set in a factory, as opposed to an office, but it's still a workplace comedy."
[1:45] Stephen Johnson: "We're going to see some new scenes, so I need to clost the laptop to shut out the light for the viewing enjoyment of others. BRB"
[1:50] Stephen Johnson: "Okay, back. Very funny little clip. Extract isn't a huge, broad comedy, but instead looks more subtle. Judge has always had an eye for the details, and this movie has a ton of Judge's style."
[1:56] Stephen Johnson: "Another clip: This one shows off the skills of Ben Affleck. He rubs some people the wrong way, but in this movie, he plays a shaggy, hippy type stoner, and he nails it: From the looks to the speech to the mannerisms."
[1:57] Stephen Johnson: "The movie concerns the owner of an extract company (like vanilla extract) and the comical way his life falls apart. It's not super high concept."
[2:02] Stephen Johnson: "The film opens September 4th."
[2:03] Stephen Johnson: "Now, fan questions: A guy dressed like Superman asks: "What was it like working with Ben Affleck?" Mike Judge says: "I love when he's a character actor... it was a pleasure. It was a breeze.""
[2:05] Stephen Johnson: "A fan asks about what they liked about the factory setting. Bateman says it was shot at a water bottling plant, and Kunis says there was no air conditioning, so it was very hot."
[2:06] Stephen Johnson: "Personal Observation: I've been doind these panels for three days now, and I'm incredibly impressed with the passion and intelligence of the fans' questions. Comic-Con fans rule."
