You know, I don't think I've ever actually seen a picture of the real Gage. In high school psychology class way back in...97? Cripes I'm old...we watched a documentary about his accident and how it changed his personality.

To put things in perspective, Arnold Schwarzenegger is reportedly 6'2", so not short. Reminds me of when in college I caught a live ECW matchup, and afterwards many of the wrestlers came and met fans outside. The camera, it turns out, not only adds pounds, but reduces inches. There was one guy, Spike Dudley, who would get treated like he was a midget in the ring, to the point of often being picked up and thrown by others, that in person I realized was the same height as myself, an average height dude. The "average" height wrestlers towered over me. I can't even fathom what it'd be like to meet a huge guy like Andre in person.

Baldbeard posted:I'm pretty sure the customers are fake too. Real people aren't 100% rude or 100% polite. Most real people would be like, "Dude, are you loving serious?" long before giving a Captain America speech like that. I don't watch the show though, so maybe there are some of those responses. All the gifs or clips I've seen though have over-the-top kind people acting like angels. I've seen the show a handful of times, because it always seems to come on when I'm hanging out at my parents' houses and there's nothing good on. They have lots of times where instead like, there'll be someone racist, or committing a crime or something, and the lion's share of people just actively turn around like "I'm not seeing this, and gently caress getting involved." but they're usually blurred out. I imagine that's like 99.99% what anyone would do in real life.

Ozz81 posted:It's always staggering to me just how massive a lot of those prehistoric skeletons are, and even modern animal ones. I mean yeah, in pictures they look big, but until you're next to one physically, it's night and day comparison. I remember seeing a whale skeleton as a kid in a UK Natural History museum (think it was a blue whale, not sure though) and I must've stared slack-jawed at it for a solid 5 minutes like "whoa...that's freaking HUGE " Reminds me of a local museum I would go to as a kid had ice-age era moose ancestors on display, and the things' kneecaps were higher than me, let alone the whole huge stilty body that had to be over 2 stories tall. I took my kid there last summer and was disappointed to see they weren't there anymore, though there was tons of cool stuff still to see.

Snowglobe of Doom posted:Giant Irish Elk? Probably something similar. The museum is in Michigan, and the animal was taxidermized, not just skeletons. They still have fetuses in jars there meanwhile to freak you out though.

JoelJoel posted:It isn't facial hair or an old building but this blows my mind: I seem to remember some time ago watching a documentary where they filmed cats falling with high speed cameras and learned that the higher they fall from, the better reacting their natural righting system is, so they're more likely to land on their feet from higher up.

syscall girl posted:Seanbaby was a treasure of the web 1.0 I thought he ducked out from a Spanish movie critic who was an actual real life boxer. Also, the guy from Rue Morgue Magazine actually lasted to the second round (the only one of the North American challengers to do so) and did the fight full on balls out stupid, coming out with a train of friends ala Hoyce Gracie, wearing a black bat-winged Luchadore mask. In the second round he bit a blood capsule and spit it all over Boll's face as a distraction.

VendaGoat posted:I have my own opinion on why, but I wish to ask you and the others. Someone who does a great good and then parades it around for selfish self-adornment is still doing a great good, that doesn't make it suddenly bad. But when someone does a great good and makes zero effort for anyone to notice, you know that he did it because it's right and for no other reason.

Sorry George, you let yourself succumb to Godhood and wouldn't let anyone tell you that you could do wrong for decades, and you proved the mistake there spectacularly. You don't get to judge quality anymore, it's out of your hands now.

Yeah I have nothing but respect for Lucas pulling an Auntie Mame. But he still lost creative perspective years ago.

Aesop Poprock posted:Wasn't Star Wars literally made with merchandising (specifically toys) in mind, and was one of the first non-Disney movie franchises to take that I want to say from word on the street that Lucas got 20th Century Fox to give him the money to make the first movie on a contract condition where the only royalties he got from the film were the merchandise ones, and they got the money from the actual film itself. At the time movies weren't making very much from merchandise (especially as this was just after the major slump of the early 70s) and Star Wars basically rewrote every single rule about blockbusters, including the blitz of toys and other products. So, yes.
