Darren: thanks for saying so!

Matt: I'd been wondering about what's shown on most of the security monitors, especially the shots of the other compounds around the world. The ones from Kyoto are obviously references to The Ring, The Grudge, and so on. And the one from Spain (Madrid, I think?) had a burning castle on a hilltop that seemed to be shot in 60s Technicolor, which I assumed was a reference either to "European B-movies" in general or some specific thing I didn't quite get. What I didn't understand at all were the shots of the other stations — one had a horned ape monster running over some wreckage, and the other just looked like a destroyed compound. But they each somehow seemed familiar, like they were a reference that I just wasn't getting.

As for the wolf: watching the movie a second time made me think they did an even better job of showing Jules "losing herself" than I'd given them credit for originally. The dare is just to "make out with that moose," but instead of just walking up and doing it, she does the whole pick-up bit first. "I couldn't help noticing you looking at me" etc. That shows her being clever and funny, which quickly degrades into her licking the thing over and over again while her friends' reactions go from laughing to horrified stares.
