Honorable Mention
30 May 2022
I am baffled as to the fact I have not been able to find one mention of the amazing soundtrack choice made during Vecna's monologue. When Vecna speaks of the nature of humans and the imbalance they create with nature, some brilliant mind decided to play the ending song from the 1982 film Koyaanisqatsi directed by Godfrey Reggio composed by Phillip Glass.

Ko.yaa.nis.qatsi (from the Hopi language), n. 1. Crazy life. 2. Life in turmoil. 3. Life disintegrating. 4. Life out of balance. 5. A state of life that calls for another way of living.

This is the entire focus of the experimental movie mentioned above and the poignancy of this peaks in the ending scene of the rocket Saturn V burning and exploding during launch while the theme (which plays during Vecna's monologue) plays.

This will probably only be caught by SO FEW people (As proof I have yet to find ANY mention of it except for one comment on the scene in question on Youtube) that including made it even more poignant. It hit me so hard when I recognized it in the scene, it sent chills down my back.

Whoever made that decision, thank you for that experience. You deserve to see this mentioned here.
