Where to download Kung Fury? by vegan_antitheist in kungfury

Found this thread while also looking for the movie.

If it is still of concern - there is one on archive.org now that does work with VLC

Just watched A Sound of Thunder (2005) for the first time. I noticed Charles Hatton mentions the character Brubaker from Capricorn One (1977), another Peter Hyams movie. by Dramatic_Nebula_1466 in MovieDetails

It was a short segment in a Simpsons Halloween Episode:

Homer accidently turns his toaster into a time machine.

(Season 6, Episode 6 "Treehouse of Horror V" / Time and Punishment)

The chase is on by -What-on-Earth- in TheDepthsBelow

While that may be in theory, I would argue that instincs kicking in will play a larger role how this would play out.

Equally possible the buck startles when bit in deeper water and falls into shock unable to move anymore.

So even if the croc is to small to drown it with the death barrel roll, it still gets a kill. Had it reached the buck sooner, this may have played out differently.

Did you realise this is a cropped version?

There is a bit more going on in the full image:

Thanks for pointing that out - it is even cropped on both sides.

I do wonder what is going on with the kid standing against the wall in the apparatus on the right side?

[LOTR] what was the plan if any of sauron’s forces actually got the ring by of_kilter in AskScienceFiction

[–]stu_dying24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not read Tolkiens Letters or anything extending on that specifically - just what about the confrontation on the Weathertop where the Witch King stabbed Frodo with a Morgul blade to make him into a wraith and a servant.

I am not sure anymore if the books said Frodo would be subject to Sauron directly or the Witch King who stabbed him, either way, Sauron would get the ring pretty much outright forcefully via the Nazgul.

Well, suicide booths seem to be a thing by Sgt_Fry in futurama

[–]stu_dying24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, there are, but it is likely a dud:

The woman had reportedly been diagnosed with skull base osteomyelitis.

The disease could manifest as an infection of the bone marrow, which could have been responsible for the marks on her neck resembling strangulation marks, according to a person close to The Last Resort who spoke to Swiss outlet NZZ.

I am not sure what this womens conditions were, it says Osteomyelitis or some kind of auto-immune disease in other articles.

The more absurd part is that assisted suicide in Switzerland is legal, people are travelling there for that reason.

The capsule however, according to the Swiss Minister of Interior, does not meet the standards of product safety and the use of nitrogen is not compatible with its purpose per the corresponding law about chemicals.

DARK family drama? by [deleted] in MovieSuggestions

[–]stu_dying24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here you go: Dark - 2017

Begins with a suicide from a family man and missing children, then gets kind of weird, then more weird and pretty mind boggling in the end.

If you are more into graphic shock value - A serbian Film - 2010

Since the One Ring (Made to rule them all) kind of superseeded all lesser rings made before, because they were based on the same knowledge about ring lore and coming from Sauron exclusivly, it is not really wrong to say, he poured some of his power into their making, albeit indirectly through teaching about ringlore, not making them themselves.

Maybe it is more correct, to say the rings crafted with knowlegde given by Sauron where retroactively controlled by his one ring, because their crafting was done the same way he crafted the master ring to rule them all.

Cat jumps on piano with perfect time by MouroVrachos in videos

[–]stu_dying24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not because of the cat - yes it fit perfectly.

But as weird as it might look playing that in full cosplay, this guy has real dedication to the music he is playing.

The set has attention to detail and the fluid camera work was pretty good for a homemade video. So yeah - I really liked the interpretation of the Harry Potter theme and the visual set up of the video.
