Can I just point out...its a bit odd, and takes a while to get going, but I think you might like it in the end.

dark screen, from behind over the shoulder view, profile of some male.. a gong sound.. cars zipping by in out of focus distance.. number 99 in a circle in center of screen. I watched that for 5 minutes and nothing else happens.

did I not wait long enough?

99 counts down to 0 - It was a slow-loader.... not that slow though :?

EDIT

Distasteful website is distasteful. I knew I shouldn't have posted it and hope no one was offended (too much).

KJA, truly a hero! :lol:

I don't see myself as sadistic ... but do like the katana swing!

13 Rue is a French cable thematic channel, they always have excellent marketing

Still felt nastily good though :)

But the hero thing was really bang on target for the hack IMO

Hmmm....

The tech involved is definitely cool, but I kinda have to be a party pooper and object to the subject matter. :(

This is exactly the sort of thing that dim fuckwits like that Pusster Dillfucker or Byron on a bad day will cite as vague threats on The Hacks Twain's lives. :roll:

When dealing with morons of the caliber we're talking about, it doesn't help to feed their fantasies and get them all worked up.

Ah well.

(And you all do realize that the thing is totally unrealistic, right? I mean, the fucker would have had the IC recorder on as he rode and would have kept talking even after his head was off! :laughing: )

I agree. This goes too far. Not only is this very distasteful, but its exactly the kind of thing that the KJA-suck-muffins will get a lot of mileage over. That's too high a cost. Keep them rambling about the same old shit, I say. Don't give them a new arrow to add to their quiver.
