Some of this stuff looks unused Henry Selick stop motion puppets from The Life Aquatic, particularly that last one. I also love how deep sea photos always look like they were taken in outer-space. It isn't so much of a stretch, really.

Post by: xnikki118x on July 19, 2007, 02:18:51 AM: I'd love to go scuba-diving sometime. I know I obviously wouldn't find any deep-sea creatures, or even any mid-water ones, but still. The ocean = :bow

My reef tank fails in comparison to this.

Post by: Mr. Gundam on July 19, 2007, 02:20:08 AM: I went scuba diving in the Great Barrier Reef when I was younger. Absolutely incredible experience.

And, a lot of these animals are in James Cameron's documentary Aliens of the Deep.

Post by: The Fake Shemp on July 19, 2007, 02:25:35 AM: I went snorkeling off a reef in Mexico. That was fun. TAKE THAT DISTANTMANTRA.

Post by: bagofeyes on July 19, 2007, 02:31:49 AM: If you had said these were found in space they would be really interesting. But the sea? pffff
Title: Re: new see creatures discovered (you have to see this)
Post by: xnikki118x on July 19, 2007, 03:01:18 AM: PS. It's sea creatures, not see creatures. :)

You see [with your eyes] a sea [of water].

Post by: muckson on July 19, 2007, 03:32:38 AM: i love this stuff.

what makes me sad is that if i showed this to any of my japanese coworkers they'd just try to figure out how to eat it.

if it swims the japanese will eat it. / :(
