Re: Risk Video!
First I'd seen this... pretty clever and clearly has a relationship to risk, but don't think I'd watch it again. Weird as hell.

I hadn't seen it before, and I think it's brilliant.

Definitely escalating cards.
The guy hanging off the edge was obviously the weakest player but only had 2 cards. No point taking him out till last as wouldn't be able to use the cash in.

Re: Risk Video!
that was a really cool short. well made.
have you ever seen an idealist with grey hairs on his head?
or successful men who keep in touch with unsuccessful friends?
you only think you did
i could have sworn i saw it too
but as it turns out it was just a clever ad for cigarettes.

I'm pretty sure there's a lot more to life than being really, really, ridiculously good looking. And I plan on finding out what that is.

Re: Risk Video!
This could be a metaphor for a lot of things, like society in general, but I think it was intended to be a metaphor for international relations.
You make a move, everyone has to adjust, or the whole thing goes off-kilter. The box is something major, like nuclear weapons or some other major world event. It causes everyone else to have to react waay more than usual, and it throws everything out of whack.

Re: Risk Video!
I promised not to bump this thread too often, and it's been five months so there should be plenty of fresh eyes to appreciate or hate this video.
For those who haven't seen it...enjoy!
for those that didn't like it...well...there's no reason to pay attention then, is there?
See you again around February!
