I'm only going to speak in animated gifs in this thread. ;)

Man, I fail doubly for 1) posting a YouTube link in the gif thread, and 2) the YouTube link going to a Dane Cook routine.

Lh'owon:

cough

A million thanks to you. I was wondering how I would spend the rest of my evening, and now I know that it will be spent uploading every gif I have to see which one is funniest when played backward.

At least it was back when Dane Cook was somewhat funny.

I’m on my iPhone so I can’t tell: is that video from before he was born?

Someone more skilled than I should reverse that for extra weirdness.

I made this one myself this evening after seeing a rerun of 2001 on cable. This scene freaked me the FUCK right out the first time I saw it. Sorry for the crappy quality - Adobe Premiere Elements doesn’t make pretty animated gifs from video.

BrianRubin · 2011-07-13T22:06:08.000Z

Nice Jerri! Yeah, that scene fucked me up as well when I first saw it. Still kinda does.

It always amazes me just how big that is. You can see the ships in the water around it. Those are big destroyers and such.

Looks like the Baker test from Operation Crossroads Take a look at the pic on wiki and see the hull of a ship standing vertically in the water column.

That reminds me, I have an Oblivion save I need to load up.

Meh, it was better before Lucas threw in all that extra CGI.

So how the holy hell does this work?

Tortilla · 2011-07-15T10:59:50.000Z

Work how? Is it supposed to be an optical illusion or something? I just see a bunch of face pictures flickering by, even if I keep my eyes where I’m supposed to.

They turn into orcish looking people for me when i stare at the middle.

As far as I remember from some class I took way back when, it’s something about how our brains recognize different parts of the human face at different times, so when presented like in that gif, we end up processing and mixing features.
