<div class="IPBDescription">Stupid hobby of the Day...</div> Discovered the simplicity that is FRAPS, and I thought I'd do some toying around with gif animation with some of video I had hanging around. Respectably, Infinitium still remains the undisputed master when it comes to the mastery of compression management, but I did tell you people to prepare for a bandwidth onslaught, didn't I?

Kudos if you can guess the movie from the next two; I just watched it last Friday and its pretty impressive. I might post up a review I was writing for it if anyone's intereseted:

Also watched a classic over the weekend. I'm going to say the name of the title outright simply because it gives a significant spoiler to the movie <a href='http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0056923/' target='_blank'>Charade</a>. Looking past that, it's simply begging to be made to an image macro:

<a href='http://www3.telus.net/confuzor/longfall.gif' target='_blank'>Ouch</a>

- I must say that the violence for the film, (while never intended to be its selling point), was well done. There's a fight scene that takes place that actually supercededes the fighting style of Adam West's Batman! Unbelieveable in a pre-Asian Martial Arts influenced era (in contrast, watch the original Manchurian Candidate).

P.S. Feel free <b>to make and post your own</b>. We're all familiar with the overused animated gifs that are already posted everywhere; lets see if any of you can find some good scenes, and maybe we can start another movie guessing game. <b>Just remember to be careful not to give spoilers</b>.

I know I kind of cheated with the first GIF I posted, but I DID make it from my own video (I didn't rip the one Infinitium posted a long time ago).

    Why 22, anyway? Why not 20? It's so much more "even".

    Actually, your sig is 5b short of 22KB, pjofsky.

    Also, due to the fact that this is an outright spamthread, similar to the locked 'post your desktop'...
