Helps if you had a crappy childhood.

      My friends and I did this an it really is a mind fuck how some of the events line up

      I have been a Pink Floyd fan more of my life then not. My buddies and I would eat up every little bit. One thing that is lost in the modern era is that on the Pink Floyd Live at Pompeii VHS tape, there is a bunch of hand held video bits. The guys acting goofy and shit. Some parts are of them recording DSotM. In one bit someone is coming to Roger’s hotel room and he shuts the door on them. On the TV in the background, he is watching Wizard of Oz.

      Pink Floyd made a few movie scores before the made DSotM.

      DSotM is such a huge accomplishment, I don’t think Roger wants his greatest accomplishment to be diminished in any ways so they have always denied any influence.

      That last bit is just my personal opinion.

      I always liked Meddle and the original Fantasia better. If you start them right, the part in One of these Days will be when the two dinosaurs are fighting. And right as the fight hits the peak and the T-Rex finally gets that mortal blow on the Triceratops, the lyrics will be

      One of these days I will cut you into little pieces

      and when the Triceratops finally closes its eyes to die, the song fades out and ends

      That, and a bunch of other really cool shit syncs up

        We also tried it, and I was impressed. There are enough little synchronicities that make you think it might be intentional, but if I recall, after the first half hour or so, there aren’t nearly as many.
