Come to think of it, I thought I saw something on there on Sunday morning...

Also, good job with the second panel editing!

I love it when things go "funny funny funny FUNNYTEHEND!" :-)

I've only seen this movie once, a long LONG time ago. I really need to get the DVD and watch it again.

The pillar in the middle provided a convenient seam for the edit, but some blending was still necessary, as by the time the pillar had moved from one side of the shot to the other, the lighting on it had changed considerably.

Next week will feature a couple more composite frames like that.

...Does this mean they're following Poe's story after all, what with having a material from the far future? 8-/
