Did we really need this?

LG Electronics must have had something to prove this year at CES because it went over the top with its long, winding, 92-foot-long "OLED Canyon" made up of more than 240 displays.

Okay, fine. It's really, reallypretty. But it just seems like a gigantic waste of energy — even in a place with enough gadgets and gizmos to outshine the Las Vegas Strip. This pathway is bright as hell.

The canyon experience is a follow up to LG's extremely successful "OLED Tunnel" that premiered at CES 2016. This year, eager to build something just as Instagram-friendly, LG decided to give us a haunted house-style walkthrough experience.

Lines built up quickly, and it's practically impossible to get a good photo because literally everyone is holding up their phone as they walk through. Somehow, we managed.

Besides the eye-popping brightness of the displays, there's really not much to the experience. You hear the loud sound of water falling and a bird caw — but that's about it.

It's basically like the world's worst amusement park ride. I mean, the least LG could do is push me through the 92-foot experience so I don't have to walk myself. My feet are killing me!
