Mailbag: Giant Bomb Mailbag: Dark Knight Fizzes Edition

More stuff flows in!

But what exactly is flowing in that thumbnail? It's making me uncomfortable, whatever it is.

EDIT: Daaaaaang, Ryan, that was some sexy vodka/MD pen stirring!

First?

Edit: Damn you, my one chance.

Let's put a smile on that face... via some sweet ass Mountain Dew.

I still dislike this new office, it's like they're in a storage room or something.

Batman!

Why isn't any of that vodka being poured in the dew?

Edit:

I'll have to wait a little longer before posting next time...

MAIL TIME

That shit would burn through the foam cup in 5 minutes tops

edit: Holy shit, vodkadews, and Ryan takes them like a man. A proud moment

Bring back the drink taste tests!

Happy Weekend.

I AM NOT A CHILD

More like "Mountain Brew" amirite?!

Frizzes?? Let's see what this is.

Why did they stop doing drink reviews on the Bombcast again? This is great!

White Citrus is an appropriate nick name from Ryan Davis.

Patrick clearly doesn't know of the camera-pan-up-to-ceiling tradition.

This is the Mountain Dew that Giant Bomb deserves, but not the one it needs right now.

Wow, Jeff hasn't seen any of the Batman movies? I thought I was the only one.

Giant Bomb, where drink taste tests are just as integral as vidya games.

Is it me or did Ryan pull that Vodka down out of the ceiling? Watch it again and tell me I'm wrong.

..I'm not wearing hockey pants!

wait wait wait wait wait wait wait... are we witnessing an OG giant bomb moment? DRINK TESTING!!

@mpgeist: Ill be the anti-dick and tell you that you don't get the quest if you use the word "First" in your post, if you were first. So you wouldn't have got it anyways sucka.

Sucka? Did you time travel from the 70's?

BATMANBATMANBATMAN

2012; nothing has changed. Still reviewing sodas.

Ya done fucked up Ryan, the caption of this should have read:

"It's not who I am underneath, but what I dew, that defines me."

Now I just really want a gif of Ryan stirring the dew-vodka mixture.

You don't get it if you type first, so don't worry, you would've fucked up your one chance anyway!

My dad works for Pepsi in the Midwest and he hasn't heard of Mtn. Dew Dark Berry yet. THIS LIQUID JEWEL HASN'T PENETRATED.

Jeff, way to be a safe driver!

By the way, Ryan, those shoes are fucking sexy.

I live where Mountain Dew isn't really sold so when I saw one recently in a shop I decided to give it a try because I always hear it being mentioned by Americans.

Tastes like shit.

Brings me back to the good old days of the GB drink taste test.

Jeff's shirt is one sise too small.

Hmm... odd... I haven't drank non diet soda for about 5 years, used to love the hell out of mountain dew though.

at 1:48 you can see the bottle in the background but yea if you don't notice that it looks like he's grabbing it out of the air.

I can't believe that neither of you have seen them.

I just refuse to believe it.

I'm going to assume that you're not American - they use different ingredients there, so their opinion of Mountain Dew is skewed. For instance, here in Canada, the sweetener is real sugar instead of high fructose corn syrup and the drink is non-caffeinated by law.

I love that Jeff's description of being truly relaxed by taking his shoes off because damn, I spend 8-10 hours a day on my feet and taking my boots off is blissful.

pre movie soda, I MUST TASTE THE ORANGE JUICE IN THIS BATMAN DRINK

Jeff, I say this because I care: If you truly haven't seen the Batman movies, what the actual hell are you doing with your life? What, I say!? Get up on that shit! Revel in the Burton films! Die a little inside with the Schumacher films (and learn to appreciate Seal)! Experience redemption with the Nolan films!

Aw, I was hoping it would taste like Pitch Black. I really loved that stuff when it was available.

Jeff: "I'm not a child" hahaha

I haven't laughed so hard at something one of these dudes has said in a while.

I quit

Bane flavor better be called Venom

I like the alcoholic twist in this mailbag. I'll have to admit that I got pretty fucking drunk on Chopin Vodka once and I most definitely liked it a fair bit. Then again, I don't know anything about Mountain Dew ... or Batman, so there's that.

Street names involving citrus always crack me up so I approve of shenanigans involving that at all times for whatever that's worth.
