    I'd call that an "epic grin"... :D
  • Want to know something really weird?

    That is exactly what I imagined would happen after shooting Zombie Elaine in the face. I imagined that, for some reason, she would be a terminator with a glowing eye. That's so bizarre.

    That's not bizarre, that's my latent psychic powers!

    I am somewhat disturbed that you thought about shooting Elaine in the face... :eek:

    Thanks for catching my error. I was supposed to shoot her twice. It's been fixed.

    Dreamwork's Shrek Forever After was running behind schedule, with only a month until its deadline. Fortunately, one of the animators recommended a company that's able to produce high quality entertainment in a timely manner...

    Skull - "Hey, buddy. I dunno about you, but I hate it here. Can you do me a favor and smuggle me out of he and into Club 41, hang me someplace high up and disguise me."
    Guybrush - "Disguise you how?"
    Skull - "I don't know, put a hat on me or something. Use your imagination."
