If you don't blink, you also see the worlds first cut-scene.  It's a cut to Sandy and Dr. Fred in his lab.   I named them "cut-scenes" (it was also the name of the SCUMM command) because they literally cut away from the action.  Games before Maniac Mansion had non-interactive scenes that would play between levels or after a big event, but the ones in Maniac Mansion are different.  They cut away.  get it?  cut-scene.   Oh, how I can amuse myself.
Self-amusement aside, I consider the way Maniac Mansion did cut-scenes to be one of the biggest mistakes of the game.  In later games like Monkey Island, the cut-scenes happen only in response to an action by the player.  They were no longer tied to an arbitrary timer.

message: Just wanted to mention that Die Hard Arcade had quick time events before Shenmue. I'm not sure which was the first game to have pre-rendered cutscenes, but it definitely wasn't Final Fantasy 7.  The phrasing may make it read that way even though I believe the intent was to mention that it was the first Final Fantasy with pre-rendered scenes.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.125.20.147 (talk) 16:06, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: It's movie jargon. They cut away from the gameplay to show you another scene. So it's a scripted scene that interrupts the usually continuous game play. — trlkly 10:55, 17 September 2011 (UTC)
