Historic Vids(@historyinmemes):While filming Spawn (1997), Michael Jai White came up with the idea for the film’s memorable “balls defense system” gag. Explaining the scene, he said, “I mean, it’s a living costume, so it had to protect the most valuable asset of its owner!” The director loved the concept, and it was ultimately included in the final cut of the film.
