Did you try this one? https://rave.dj/tnE2ZXXl00Lynw It's another one where most of it doesn't really work, but there's a bit near the start where the game's drum fill plays at 0:14, immediately followed by the equivalent drums in the original.

You die in the game... you die in real life!

Years ago I learned Hotel Yorba by the White Stripes on guitar, and I noticed it has the same chords and a similar tempo as Monty Python's Lumberjack Song. So it's quite easy to play it and switch from the verse of one to the chorus of the other. So I plugged them into this... The result isn't great (it mostly sticks pretty cleanly to one song or the other) but the transition at about 0:18 shows what I mean: https://rave.dj/wzh_zarUbEm8Aw Here's another attempt at combining two comedy songs. Again the best blend happens at about 0:17 - and there's another one at 0:35: https://rave.dj/H5OBV3w8WPlCHA Then I tried taking two of the sweariest songs I could think of: Tim Minchin's Pope Song, and South Park's Uncle Fucka. It doesn't work brilliantly (as Minchin's song dominates the audio) https://rave.dj/mjtXz-RFUo5YWQ (very NSFW, obviously!) Then I tried combining the same thing with the Kyle's Mom song from South Park, as they're animated with similar character layouts. Again, Pope Song dominates the audio - but there are a couple of bits where the animation lines up: https://rave.dj/KVLQjE0H8i5jCQ (even more NSFW!)

Not Pixar!

@MW_Jimmy It's probably easiest to list which ones you still have left to see! Of course, whichever ones you list, someone will reply with with "Oh don't ignore _______ , that one's great!" (Except Earthsea obviously.)

You can add Titans ("Fuck Batman!") and Joker (Phillips and Phoenix have discussed a sequel). And that's just live-action...

Three of them, so far. Don't get your hopes up too high, though: https://www.thefarside.com/new-stuff Plus a picture of a mad scientist/artist and his cow Igor, which I can't see in full on the website but has been used to illustrate several articles about his return, like this one: https://www.theverge.com/21317458/far-side-new-comics-creator-gary-larson-25-years-digital-tablet

This is a good blog post on how if you catch something scary on childhood TV at the right age, it can imprint itself onto your brain for long afterwards... http://www.dirtyfeed.org/2020/07/condition-red/

At the end of Thandie Newton's new Vulture interview, a discussion of Paul Haggis mentioned his Scientology, which turned into a discussion about working with Tom Cruise on Mission: Impossible 2. It sounds like it was pretty emotional for her at the time, but it's one of the lighter stories in that interview. https://www.vulture.com/article/thandie-newton-in-conversation.html

You can't say something like that and then not explain why! (Or at least link to a wiki page or forum post explaining it.)

Illusory Wall has published a very thorough video on how he and others worked out how the level range restrictions for summoning and PvP work in Dark Souls 2. Apparently DS2 is the odd one out, compared to the system used in the other four Soulsborne games:
