I don't get #2. Can someone explain it to me? :\ It doesn't seem all that impressive.
The 15 Best Staged Splash Mountain Photos
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

I don't get #2 either. Maybe it isn't staged enough? ;)

Number two is not staged per se, other than Dwayne "the Rock" Johnson giving his In-Ring muscle flex... And the guy behind him has a shaved head too.

Wow, only one from the east coast. I guess that just shows people are more creative in California...
My opinions are mine and mine only. If my opinions are the opinion of others who happen to share whatever my crazy views may be, then fine, but it's not because I represent them in having my opinions. Got it?

I have such a hard time believing the GameCube one. I'm trying to figure out how one would manage to get these things onboard without being noticed.
15, 14, 7, and 4 strike me as funny. 6, 11, 13, and 3 seem far too staged to me.
12 just makes me cringe. I find it funny because it's not even Splash Mountain (take a look at the log, its down the street!)...

You will be missed.

Rage comics are number 1? Seriously? Marriage proposal is the favorite.
"A little swordplay, now and then, keeps my mind off sheep!"
"You're messing with my Zen thing, man."
"Dreams are as portals,
flat visions of misty places,
fragments bound below my surface,
but I can write dreams,
they flow from me,
inscribed but now unbound,
I touch them,
and they are real,
and they are real."

While not splash mountain, I might have participated in constructing this one.

I don't know about that. A couple of the photos on the list were photographs of the video screen so I guess it depends on the CMs in charge?Mayonnaise wrote:I thought if you pulled this kind of shenanigan they wouldn't let you get your photo?
