  1. I remember lusting after this edition of The Abyss when I was a teenager. Now, for some reason, I find myself with 2 copies, both in perfect condition.

    The inserts are so crisp, it looks like these were barely touched.

    The supplemental content on this is legendary, a passion project of Van Ling, who was head of production at Lightstorm. (CC: @jacksonhayes)

  7. Crow’s Nest Warning


    The Great Captain has gone insane
    lashing at the sea with all his might
    as thunder echoes and lightning strikes
    will he be forever lost?

    Dejected souls stand the shoreline
    awaiting answers that will never come
    feel the rain upon the face
    for its the only truth that still exists.

    The lighthouse keeper has fallen asleep
    the light diminishes with each wave
    those seeking shelter from the storm
    are impaled upon the rocky shore.

    Voices scream into the darkness
    the captain continues his quest
    as violent the storm, so too is his wrath
    that leads him into the soulless abyss.

    Warnings from the crow’s nest fail
    darkness swallows the souls onboard
    the helm has sunk beneath the waves
    as the albatross takes to the sky.

    Songs of warning written in tongues
    moral stories told to our young
    careful of the ship you step upon
    for the lighthouse keeper sleeps in silence.

  8. I really enjoyed the tense, claustrophobic underwater thriller side of The Abyss — all the stuff about pressure, personalities clashing, and things slowly going wrong. I’ve never loved the last 20 minutes though. Once it fully leans into the alien side of things, I could have done without all of that.

    Those paying attention will notice that I went to see this the same day as Wilt. Quite a contrast.

    》Klar, wer diesen Podcast hört, der schaut sich vorher mal noch "The Abyss" an. Aber ich kenne sehr wenige Leute, die 2024/2025 sagen "The Abyss kenne ich noch gar nicht."《

    Öhm… ich habe euch jetzt zehn Atunden zugehört. Meint ihr, ich sollte den Film mal noch schauen?

  18. That’s fascinating. Disney+ version of The Abyss has the fluorocarbon breathing rat but is the theatrical version whereas ITVx is the cut version of the Special Edition (but has ads) with the rat off camera. The definition is definitely higher on ITVx as well, something going on there. Anyway I watched the Disney+ version and it was fine. In the UK we haven’t been able to watch it for ages due to the rat scene, but now we can, either with rat or without. But if you want the rat it costs you 20 minutes ;-)
