Yet you can see an influence on the animation of Empty Spaces when they start biting each other. Wouldn't say reused. But it was the first thing I thought of when I saw the drawings.

You are right, Jimi.

Even 'Welcome To The Machine' video, also a work by Gerard Scarfe, have a lot of 'disturbing' moments. Around 3.45 min..

Shocked that there is no discussion about the 2018 remix release!

I thought it was amazing!

Looking forward to giving the Dolby Atmos version a listen which I noticed in Apple music.

I didn't like it. Rick's contributions got buried down the mix, especially on Dogs. I tried to listen at least thrice to this mix and got more and more annoyed about the decisions they took.
It made it sound like an attempt to underrate Rick even more. Of course that wasn't the true band's intention, it was annoying nonetheless.

It's always interesting to have a new vision of the album released, but in my case I stick to the original mix.

I was even more annoyed by a factor not related to the mix, though: the absence of live recordings from the time. Since it was a special edition, in that case including this new mix, it was another missed opportunity to open the vaults of some of those amazing tours.
