Well not an entire house but a scene or two would be nice like in vampyre. Breaks up the repetitivty and could also work as a distraction scare
I was excited to see the updated list until I saw The Thing: Assimilation over everything else. Including Halloween! Seriously guys...
Of course, we have to mention that bedroom scene, where the girl is having a rather pleasurable experience.
I understand everyone has their own opinion, that's why I'm voicing mine. During your top 25 podcast last year I heard your thoughts on why it was #1. The consensus was The Thing is a prelude for house tech to come (AvP, AWiL). While that might be true, I think everyone was so hyped for AvP and remembered how great AWiL was the year prior, that stamp alone gives it #1. It's like giving the first generation Android phone #1 over the Galaxy s6 for nostalgic purposes. The Thing wasn't a terrible house but houses should be judged on consistency. Yes I had a cool run through, everything worked. Most of the time I would miss a puppet or two. The military guys were standing around. The shitty dog hand puppet that was like 5 feet from me. Plus the most of the "puppets" were basically shaking rubber manikins. I respect your opinions, 90% of the list was spot on. It just doesn't seem like a well thought out #1... of. all. time.
Aiello confirmed this scene would be in M&M this year. I must be picturing something entirely different than what was really going on in the scene, as I can't see that happening at HHN these days.
A) What was this scene exactly? Surely it wasn't just a girl moaning and touching on top of a bed? There must have been more to it than that, right?
B ) How was this scene used for scares?
C ) If it really is going to be in the M&M house, what is memorable about it other than shock value of seeing a girl "having a rather pleasurable experience."?
When I told some friends about this scene, the reaction was basically "Why? Other than causing controversy." I tried to find a walkthrough of the original house to see how it fit the context, but couldn't find an answer.
:look:
A) She would basically do a striptease on the bed, under a trance.
B) It was a distraction set-up.
C) The house itself was great, but that's the scene everyone talks about.
Keeping it PG-rated here, that totally isn't what we were thinking based on the phrasing "having a rather pleasurable experience." lol
I'll update my personal after the event but the main one will wait until next year
Can we see your updated personal after last year's event? I believe you said more than one might make it into your personal all time list so I am very curious.
