    There is one specific Smashing Pumpkins song (Hello Kitty Kat, I think) where in the last few seconds as the guitars are fading out, Billy says a few unintelligible words, which somehow sound as if they are coming from just over my shoulder when wearing ear buds.

    It scares the shit out of me EVERY single time I listen to it at work because it makes me a coworker is talking in my ear, trying to get my attention.

    This reminded me of a friend’s story. They and another friend get high and go to a 3d movie. Mind you, my friend’s friend is missing one eye. They have only one eye. And they’ve chosen a 3d movie.

    The movie is supremely underwhelming for this unfortunately monocular person, and so they get a highdea. They take off their glasses and start rapidly moving them from side to side, and saying, far too loudly, that they understand 3d now.

    At this point, I have to apologize as I was laughing so hard that I couldn’t hear the rest of their story in anything but bits and pieces, but I think they ended up going to another 3d movie immediately afterward to confirm their findings.

      … That’s actually possible that it made your friend2 understand 3D. They would have manually turned the movie into a Wigglegram and I’ve read of people who finally ‘got it’ after seeing those.

    I want this to be true so much that I’ve decided to believe it even if it isn’t. Holy shit, I understand religion now!

      I can corroborate that the theater mixing on this movie was phenomenal, to the point I distinctly remember being confused that someone was yelling at the screen from behind me at this exact moment. Also the first footsteps from the mech that sounded from behind were super startling. Never seen another movie that utilized the theater equipment to the degree megamind did.

    I regularly get the feeling that Shmi is in the room with me when she sends Anakin to bed. In theaters she’s in the lower left corner of the screen.
