Watched Doctor X last night and finally, after 18 years, got to know from where Kool Keith sampled the wonderful intro to No Awareness. Finally!

PS Apologies to mfunk for useless thread bump...DS

Well technically it was The Automator that sampled while Keith rapped...
"Doctor X" is amazing. One of my favorites in this collection. Especially creepy with the 2 strip technicolor process, this and "Mystery Of The Wax Museum" are maybe the only movies I've seen released in this process. Are there any more out on DVD or BD that are 2-strip technicolor?

Assisted by Chewbacca Uncircumcised aka Phillip Collington (thank you discogs!). If we continue to sprinkle our posts with trip-hop minutiae, I think there is a fair chance we'll both get banned.

On BD, I guess Phantom of the Opera and The Black Pirate counts as two-strip technicolor - even though it's an earlier process. On DVD I really like Busby Berkeley choreographed and Greg Toland photographed Whoopee! - but I might be alone in that. Needless to say, it doesn't look anything like Citizen Kane.
