Mars Attacks! Behind the Scenes

I think when we look back through the history of cinema, Backrooms will be a touchstone for this era. It's got far more depth than I anticipated, and stands out as a truly artful and unique movie. It's creepy, it's cerebral, and it's a reflection of things that are very human, presented in an abstract way.Connect with our socials and Discord here: https://linktr.ee/nerdranks

Long ago, when 3D gaming was in its infancy, and Nintendo ruled the gaming world... a deal was struck. Sony and Nintendo agreed to team up and build a console the likes of which the world had never seen... Little did Sony know that Nintendo was sharpening their blade behind closed doors. BETRAYAL MOST FOUL!... Nintendo cowered at the excellence of the PS1 as it rose from the ashes of their decimated alliance!Connect with our socials and Discord here: https://linktr.ee/nerdranks

This was without question one of the best cartoons of the '90s. From the dark, atmospheric animation, to the top tier voice acting, this one really resonated with its audience. When I was a kid, it had me thinking profoundly about existence and mortality. A philosophy lesson disguised as a cartoon.
