To tell you the truth, Arius, we needed extra money to fund LRR, so we signed up en masse for a bunch of double-blind experimental H1N1 vaccine tests. Based on research thus far, we're pretty sure a quarter of the crew will be dead within the next month, and another quarter will have super powers, so we're covering all the bases and tying things up just to be sure you're all ready when folks start to drop.

Oh, well at least you're thinking of us.

By the way, what's planned for Matt's Optimus Prime collection if he drops? I have some student loans I need to pay off...

Well I hope you would, if you didn't it would be rather confusing. We on the other hand aren't blessed with precognition or the ability to hack into the LRR crew forum (or do we?) and thus have to live in wait to see how much the changes really effect things.

As for the video:

For a moment at the end when Paul turned over to go to sleep I thought graham was going to say something to the effect of "Paul why are you in my bed?"

When I think Paul + Optimus Prime collection, I get the image of an army of sentient mini Primes.

Alex! Geoff! Callbacks! This was a fantastic way to start my morning. Nifty idea, well done. I found it the most fun to watch since How To LRR. Might the fan-servicing be approaching critical mass?

Yay hilarity.

Question- The "Paul and Graham sharing a bed" thing... Laurel and Hardy? Morecambe and Wise? Just curious.

And as for the whole vaccine thing, I take it you'll be documenting the steady changes in the crew and uploading them for our amusement. Taking it as read that Graham will of course develop super footage editting powers and become "The Clipper".

I think it's a really funny video, I really don't see where all this fuss coming from. I think one of the trademarks of LRR videos is the inside jokes and self-referential material. I mean, look at The LRR Year One Retrospective. I don't think that was an exception, I think it was a standard setter. It's part of the funny :D And.. is it exceptionally sad that I'm totally jealous Graham in bed with Paul?.. meep (0x0)

So very Nostalgic.
X2Y was always one of my favourite Vids, nice to see a new err old err whatsoever...

But is it intended that the Sam Raimi isn't named?

Poor show for not getting Kayt and Lissette to reprise their roles.

Not funny, Graham. Not a good video.

Now I've stopped being sje46, I think this was the first LRR video to which I have actually applauded, while being in an empty room. I believe it was "coke" that caused that.

I think I enjoyed it doubly because I have seen all the X ways to Ys.

LOVED IT! Especially the Desert Bus part, which I surely am going to use at LAN next weekend!
So when are we going to see some new X2Y videos? And I'm not talking about the secretly planned "Ways to Ways to X2Y" that's coming up in six years (*wink*).

Christ Almighty, that video was no meta-referential that I had an out-of-body experience.

It's a running gag that Graham and Paul sleep in the same bed.

Gag? I'm pretty sure they just filmed that part just before they fell asleep.

When did they port the bodyswap mod to SegaCD? I thought it was Dreamcast-only.

Well, Brain Transplants Made Easy was filmed some time ago. Paul's had a chance to upgrade since then. And what's Paul's Golden Rule?
