[QUOTE="Captain B. Zarre, post: 135190, member: 2355"] So I had a dream that *gasp!* made sense the other night... well, considering I went to Magic Kingdom the other day... 2/20/14: Tonight, my parents put in a VHS of The Lion King for us to watch on a rainy day (Disney and VHSs seem to be recurring themes in my head) (?). It started off normal, showing the trailer for Pocahontas, but then it segued into a "lilac background" intermission that I had not seen before; this one had "Now Available to Own On Videocasette" in a different font than what is normally done. Then it showed me a bizarre commercial for "Muppet Treasure Island", which was then followed up by another unique lilac intermission that showed "Now Available from Disney Interactive" in the normal font. It than cut to a commercial for a PC game based off of "James and the Giant Peach", but I quickly covered my ears and closed my eyes near the end in the fear of seeing an extremely scary Walt Disney logo like the 1978 one. Was there a scary logo? Well, nope. Instead I got "rewarded" with the Dairy Queen logo (with a rounded blue rectangle near it) starting off a commercial for their ice creams, as me and my mother read through the DQ coupon pamphlet that came in the VHS clamshell. But then the real "Feature Presentation" started (thankfully, with the normal ident); a dream inside a dream. Now I was on my computer and learning about Viacom returning to their television distribution roots and producing a new logo that induced nightmare fuel. People across the web were complaining about the logo being even scarier than the "S from Hell", the "BND Mask", the Klasky-Csupo "Super Scary Face", and even Viacom's very own "V of Doom" ident that graced our favorite shows. After wondering out loud that I wanted to see what the fuss was about, my computer shut down, and showed a black-gold background with the "A" and "Presentation" words zooming in as normal... but then it was followed by an even more bombastic and creepy version of the V of Doom fanfare with a new, solid-gold "V" zooming in! However, it stopped about midway through and the V asked me if I wanted to listen to "his headphones". I responded, put the headphones on, and then learned that he was listening to pinball music - the music to Black Knight 2000 mind you! Instead of becoming scared, I was gleeful to learn that he loved pinball as much as me. Until he resumed and crushed me. [/QUOTE]
