To be fair, if you needed entertaining tour guides to a strange new land, you couldn't ask for better than Danny DeVito and Awkwafina.
Attempting to explain the popularity of VoIP, instant messaging and digital distribution platform Discord, or, rather, revelling in its indescribable appeal, Discord – The Movie is AKQA's five-minute trip through some incredibly well-realised (and delightfully bonkers) worlds.
Developed, in part, though Discord's own user's description of the platform, this wild ride from Riff Raff's Finn Keenan not only makes excellent use of its endearing stars, but also answers the age-old question - why does Danny DeVito love eggs so much.
