When Live Action Turns into a Painting

Remember the end of that Rocky movie, when Balboa got into the ring with his new buddy Apollo for a friendly grudge match? Just as they threw their first punch, they turned into a painting. Well ain't that a bitch. Which motherfucker won? I did a little research into this, and found this is not an entirely unprecedented phenomenon. Back in the early 1600's, the Greeks were fighting the Ancient Greeks in the Battle for Antiquity, and just as the Greeks were about to fire a canon ball, the whole war turned into a painting. As it turns out, one man, Dick Cheney Jr. (Dick Cheney's nephew) is in charge of exciting events turning into paintings, and he's not saying what's next. Perhaps the next time you go to the bathroom or have a pear, your life will turn into a painting.
