I read an interview with some Rockstar folks before IV came out, and I remember them saying the studio had set up flatscreen TVs everywhere which just cycled random pics of NYC 24/7.

I'm a huge fan, and I'm ecstatic to finally get some new material from these guys (why the hell does it take this long between albums?).

TOTALLY

That's so brutal it makes me laugh.

Think about what their heads would look like with their mouths closed.

I was bored with Phenomena until the last 15 minutes, when it turned from a boring supernatural slog to one of the scariest WTF things I've ever seen.

I'm happy you cleared that up; I've been seeing it as "guy-oh" for years.

The third act of Deep Red is terrifying. Definitely check it out.

What if you got sewn in between 2 Mega Bloks dudes?

Yes, that was by far my favorite moment.

One like for 'metal spaghetti monsters'.

Agreed, but don't watch the behind-the-scenes docs where they deconstruct how it was done. Every time after you'll easily notice which cars are CGI and which ones are actually in the scene.

BTTF was retconned into a trilogy BIG TIME. You wanna talk about a tight, self-contained story that found surprising success, which warranted 2 sequels shot back-to-back, talk about BTTF.

You're thinking of Kernel Orville Redenbacher.

Yeah, they got a little cocky with the CGI in that one. Weren't there shots that were literally all-CG?

That short was genuinely traumatizing. I'll never forget the drawn-out scene where the soldier is ripped out of his battle suit, watching his torso torn from his limbs while he struggles uselessly.

Can anyone find the random clip from the beginning of Batman Forever where some dorky guy looks up into the sky, points, and shouts 'BATMAN!' like some special-needs 4th-grader?

Wasn't it 'Hockey PANS'? Like, pans that hockey players use?

Kissyfur.

Yeah, Tool definitely take(s?) the piss (they did that track that sounds like a Nazi rally but it's really a recipe for chocolate chip cookies), but that doesn't undercut their talent.
