Better with sound

That was very mean.

by **0mar** » Mon 25 Apr 2005, 21:56:46

I didn't get it

by **ArimoDave** » Mon 25 Apr 2005, 22:27:44

I didin't get it either. No Sound. Was I supposed to hear white noise -- static, along with the black page? The web address indicates static. Or was the point that there was almost nothing. If this was the point, better if you removed the little picture icon, and "Webmasters, use this promo at will." Just leave a black screen.

Sorry if this spoils your fun! Maybe, there is a problem with my connection and I didn't get the entire page loaded. It has happened before.

Great one!

What is it that was whispered though? I couldn't make it out and I'm kinda scared to go watch it again.

Not to give it away, but normally one has to pay about $7.50 for that....

Jeez, funny and all, but it might have been just a tad bit more subtle...oh, I don't know...like people running in the streets from Godzilla, clips from Alive! and a wrecked airliner and a few miscellaneous parts, a clip from Monty Python and the 'Bring Out Yer Dead' bit, or the clip from the famous 'Daisy' ad of the child plucking Daisy petals and the nuclear countdown....

As well as...

Escape from New York....running fromt he gang hordes...

and of course, The Road Warrior...."while the leaders talked and talked"....

And end it with "It's the End of the World as We Know It" by REM...

All in fun, of course...no fear mongering here....

I had use internet explorer as opposed to my usual firefox to see it. I don't know if its my settings or anything, but if you want others (like me, I don't think I'm alone) to use it as a teaser/promo at other sites, then maybe if you could provide a link so you can also download/open it from a program and not have it embedded in the browser.

I'm just worried others will open it, see a broken thing, and just click the X at the top right and return to blissful ignorance.

I love the way the car doesn't reappear on the other side of the bush/small-tree, and yet the camera expects it to....

Love it. Thanks.

disturbing. very disturbing. I'll be sure not to include it on my presentation to elected officials. I'll get the old heave-ho faster than that thing appeared on the picture.

I think if you showed that clip to Ken Deffeyes he'd have a heart attack.

Haven't had that good a rush since watching the Exorcist!
