Mailbag: Giant Bomb Mailbag: Cretaceous Edition

inspiration to us all, Joe

Museum Quality.

I mailed Ryan that mug, and I got shown the fuccccccccckk up. Damn, dude.

Lucky Patrick. Joe, you awesome.

Wow. I would almost die for a signed script like that. Because, you know, can't appreciate it if I'm dead.

Also, I'm diggin' Jeff's goatee.

You and me both then.

@patrickklepek: You are an awesome dude Patrick it is great you got some really cool stuff.

Pictured are Stephen Spielberg and MIchael Crichton's signatures.

MC didn't even try to actually write all the letters, did he?

hey JP3 wasn't that bad, for a monster/thriller movie. beat the lost world at least (haven't seen that one in a long while, though...)

That mailbag was sick! I'm thinking.. If that's the stuff this guy gave away. Just imagine what kind of stuff he has at home.

As a kid I used to really be into shark teeth after I went to Sea World. That's almost like dinosaur fossils.

I dub thee bone to be thuggish AND ruggish.

Fuck. That's gotta be one of the coolest mailbags ever.

that all belongs in a museum.

I was like yeah cool, old bones, sure etc... then the script came up and I was like.... STFU!!

Did Patrick call it 'the Crustaceous period'? When crabs and lobsters and shrimp ruled the earth?

Those were dark times man. Crabs were everywhere. No where was safe.

It's really my favorite era of natural history to study. It gets real dark in the middle, but it turns out alright in the end.

Damn that is an awesome mailbag

Holy fucking shit that JP3 script. If those signatures are indeed authentic, that is fucking amazing.

Crawdaddy period.

Ahh man... this was so good to see.... Patrick's face was a picture

I often feel Patrick gets forgotten in other peoples mailbags

Jeez, it's going to get impossible for people to top these mailbags anymore.

That was really cool!

Awesome gifts, Joe. You rock! :P

The one-upmanship on these mailbags is getting intense. @patrickklepek You have got to get that stuff in a display case/framed, including the script. Think of what an awesome conversation piece the Spielberg signature and or shark shit would be!

Yeah. One day they are going to get two crates and one will have a giant authentic Olmec head from the Smithsonian and the other will have King Tut's golden mummy case full of hundred dollar bills and covered with the stolen original of Edvard Munch's The Scream from 'Who Ya boys Jeff?'. The Mummy case will win and the Smithsonian will be bummed out.

Incredible! :D

One Mailbag in the future: Jeff opens cardboard tube.Dumps out the Koh-I-Noor, a gold tooth stolen from David Bowie, and the Hope Diamond.

Well I doubt anyone is going to top that ever. But I said that when the dude sent in the hundreds of old games too. But seriously, someone just sent that script? That must be worth thousands of dollars at least. The Giantbomb community is insane. Just wow. And people were saying Mailbags were getting stale. Never challenge the Giantbomb community for they will rise to the challenge.

Getting all of those signatures on that script must have been a real pain in the ass. But, that is pretty good stuff there!

That is incredible! I feel so happy for you Patrick and wow to Joe for sending that amazing stuff. Really cool!

Ok, that's a legitimately awe inspiring mail bag right there. 
 
I am most jealous of the JP3 script. That's fucking bad ass. 
You should get those signatures authenticated and put that in a case or a box or something.

Fuck man... signed by Sanchez? Holy shit.

Then Patrick receives a PM that says "SHIT, did my wife put my signed copy of the script for Jurassic Park 3 in there??!?!"

Dinosaurs are fucking rad, y'all.

Top men are handling it.

Top. Men.

Damn this shit seems valuable. Pretty awesome.

Whoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Joe has easily sent over 1000$ of stuff just in straight Things, and it's awesome value goes way way beyond that, I'm sure Patrick will be on cloud nine for days, maybe weeks XD

Believe me, I'm getting all of this framed. I already brought back the script my apartment. Need to find something more appropriate for all the fossils...

That's crazy awesome!

"Camel toe."

"Hehheh..."

Oh, Giant Bomb.

Easily the best mailbag ever. Even if that script is fake, the fossils are clearly real, and are just as cool in my opinion. And if it is authentic, that's a good $1000 easily Patrick just received. As was said, though, if this Joe guy was willing to just give this stuff away, imagine what else he has. Maybe...signed JP1 and Lost World scripts. You know, the good stuff!

Thats crazy. Thats just crazy man. Crazy. hnnng

Thats really cool!

Amazing!

The stuff people are sending them are just getting weirder and weirder lol awesome

I'm so glad you guys got this! I was worried sick that I put the address in wrong or something. I'm really happy you all dug this once my collection gets too big again I might send some more stuff your way!

hahaha sanchez.

In other news, local museum finds multiple fossils, bones, and shark shit missing from displays.

@patrickklepek Those movie cards appear to be from Blockbuster. We called them "Backer cards" and they went behind the movies on the wall to signify what movie was supposed to be there in the event that they were all checked out. No idea if they still use those, as it's been some time since I've been in a Blockbuster.

the people sending them mail have been on a roll lately. wow

patrick's reaction is so cute, haha
