      So I've kind of grown to have respect for people who insist on always turning on scanlines/CRT filters/etc but for all that we have these kinds of comparison images NOW to reflect how we're misremembering pixel art, back in the day I legit just had no idea what anything washttps://twitter.com/jackal27/status/1341438432904622082 …

      Like back when I actually played video games on CRT monitors—and you can bet I did it a fuckload—there were so many games I'd play where I would just completely miss so much detail and not understand what a sprite was supposed to be representing. They were just glowy shapes

      I don't think I ever parsed that the Medusa heads in Castlevania were supposed to be Medusa heads, for example. On a CRT I felt like it was pretty fucking hard to tell. Maybe it was because I was a stupid kid, but, like. I don't know that the added depth and shadow was worth it

      back when I had money to burn, I kickstarted the restoration of MANOS: THE HANDS OF FATE, which was meticulously reassembled from the original workprint Prior to its release, the most well-known version was the MST video, which was a bad copy of a bad copy that looked like shitpic.twitter.com/ycDbGyDm6O

      And a lot of people think the restoration is WORSE! Because Manos is supposed to be a horror movie, so a horribly blurry and shadowy version that looks like every single frame of the movie is a different pasty guy's five-year-old back tattoo is I guess more atmospheric or smth?

      man idk that feels like cheating at parody the version of the movie everybody makes fun of is effectively not even a movie that the creators had any part in You guys degraded your videotape so badly it's like you're making fun of a piece of shit that came out of your own ass

      But that's part of the meta joke here, that this movie was such a failure even finding footage of it was an almost impossible task

          Back in those days, many of the movies that MST3K featured were so obscure, they are picked up at garage sales and Bob's Video Discount Rentals (the type of dusty, tiny shop that still had beaded curtains in the back.)
