schmericaSomething you may or may not know about my personal and official worldview:
There are very, very few things funnier in movies than horrible things happening just off-screen. The humor seems to increase in direct proportion to how little attention the character *on-screen* actually pay attention to it.
Seriously. Three people on-screen, one wanders off while the other two talk, and then a loud crash or "OW!" or something that those two ignore completely? I'm giggling like a loon for *ages*.
It doesn't transfer as well to text, unfortunately.
In other news, I want Shrek 2 to come out on DVD so I can obtain an icon of tiny little mutant babies. Then, I think, my life may be complete.
