Over used props?!?

[skadistic]

So I'm watching a movie about a house and a crystal skull made in the 80s. Thing is I've seen that same crystal skull used in the 'A-Team', 'McGuyver' and 'Stargate SGI'. Is there only one crystal scull in all of hollywood? Does any one else know what I'm talking about?

 

[s.c.dude]

i think that that's the only one skull. think i saw something like it in a book "skills and wisdom of the ancients" google crystal skull

Your watching House 2 I saw it for a few minute of until I popped in The Dirty Dozen I don't think it's the same one but it all has to do with this ..... THE CRYSTAL SKULL

I've seen the Stargate episode the crystal skull is in, don't watch the other two shows, so I haven't seen it in anything else.

The crystal skulls power of subconcious brainwashing is waning temporarily, only now are you aware of this ubiquitous terror. The brain people will be around soon to erase your memories and restore the skull to it's full powered broadcast.

I notice overused sound bites more often. Especially that "children laughing" one used in Rollercoater Tycoon.

Best overused one is the Wilhelm scream, though it's more a homage now. Always get a giggle hearing it, especially since all Star Wars and Lord of the Rings films have it

The sound of the police station in simcity 3000 is used all over in movies, shows and games.

Many, many years ago, there used to be a TV series, I can't remember the exact name but something along the lines of " Arthur C. Clarkes Mysteries of the World". That also used a crystal skull in the introduction and closing credits.

Maybe they are two a penny!

Oh yeah, the one with the wierd rambling

"Venus sub-winger who we got here its a sutha and a sea"

Its strange hearing sounds you've heard over and over in films, because they always stand out (and no-one lese knows what you found so strange ).

Sound effects are simlar, everytime there are police on tv you here the sound effect from grand theft auto, "Something something 4 (static) SOmething something 4). And the noise that the boss on mortal kombat makes is used for some many monsters.
