minesweeping

The act of stealing, appropriating, or simply picking up an unattended drink, with the intention of aquiring it as your own.

I couldn't afford a drink so I scouted out the club and went minesweeping - I came back with two pints and a glass of something purple, with an octopus in it! Drank it anyway.

Cardboarding

The verb to describe an effect (generally negative) that results from the conversion of a 2D film in to a 3D, whereby aspects of the scene whilst having an overall sense of depth, appear more like cardboard cut-outs rather that fully depthed objects.
The effect is created by the way the rotascope 'slices' the image in to its respective 3D elements, finer slices create more depth.

I did enjoy Burton's Alice movie, but at times the cardboarding was distracting.
