Been watching Wonder Man and reminded of this character. The opening part where he says "I consider of myself as a teacher," there is something in the way he speaks that reminds me of another villain or something from another movie but I just can't place it. It has been eating me alive for like 3 days. I don't know if it is the accent, the way he speaks or what. But there is someone out there who reminds me of this character. Anyone got ideas?

Not why I'm so fixated on this right now, but I remember seeing an episode of an anime or anime inspired show where the the main characters are in some kind of mall and people are super fixated on these plastic wrapped burgers that have a small chance of being golden. Literally all I remember is that it had some kind of monster of the week element in the middle (it had some kind of rolling attack?), and when the main character gets a golden burger at the end, it tastes like crap.

Google has failed me yet again today.

Edit: now that I'm thinking of it more, I think the "monster" might have been some wildman that stole the food.

Okay team, here's the deal. I'm looking for a piece of art I desperately need as a reference. I could have sworn I had it downloaded, but I can't find it anywhere. The art in question is two astronauts in full space suits in an otherwise wild west scene. They've just concluded a high noon duel. The angle is such that the loser of the duel is crumpled on the ground in the foreground, and the winner is standing in the background. The winner is wearing a brown bandolier, and their gun is still smoking. The loser of the duel has red smoke pouring up out of his now shattered visor. I remember there being a big red word across the top, like a comic book cover or something. Any help here would hugely appreciated. If there's another community for this kind of thing please direct me to it. Thank you all!

I am looking for a specific music video for an AFAIK original song. The song is in Japanese, title as well. Video follows a cute, short looking full-on kemono with dark gray fur, blue eyes ( not as sure on that one ), wings, and a blue sleep hat with either yellow or white dots on it.

As for the content's of the video, it opens, IIRC, with a menacing silhouette of the kemono before showing it. From what I can recall, it focuses on the kemono demon creature taking bites out of sheeps wool and eating them ( depicted in a weirdly cute and not violent way ), and a focus on the kemono being sleepy. Does have at least one scene of the sleepy kemono counting jumping sheep in his mind. I also rememver there being scene that depicted the kemono as being around as large as the moon and showing him eating at least part of the moon.

If I remember correctly, it's still relatively fresh since it's at most maybe 2-3 years old. I'm definitely gonna keep looking for it, but would absolutely appreciate any help finding it. Used to be something saved on my phone on newpipe before I had to switch phones.

Thanks in advance to anyone who has any info that could help.

Edit:

2D animation. Was not a 3D model animated music video.

Edit Edit:

Did more searching and seeing a video of music for a game that contained "でびる" ( debiru ) in the title made me remember that might be part of the name of who I was looking for. And it was. The video is a song by でびでび・でびる ( debidebi • debiru ). Apparently it's only around 2 months old, so my 2-3 years guess was absolutely way off!

YouTube link to exact part

Heard this song on Top Gear, S03E09. It is an instrumental song by Gianfranco Plenizio from the early 1970s.

But the linked section of the song (38 seconds to about 59 seconds) sounds just like a newer song that's on the tip of my tongue, I thought it was an instrumental remake of the newer song.

The newer song with the same tune had vocals and I think is a rock song. I think the lyrics are something like "This blah blah love blah me everywhere, I only wanted you to know." Feels like from the 1980s or 1990s.

Recently youtube has started recovering me shorts channels that post clips of a Japanese TV show where product manufacturers challenge two products

Unfortunately the channel posting the clips doesn't actually provide the name of the TV show so that's why I'm asking here to see if anyone knows the name of the TV show.

I think the dev posted about it in a gaming community within the last year. It had top town, 2D graphics. Each level you'd mine resources to build up you defenses to stop waves of enemies. I think you had to destroy the enemy's base to continue to the next level. As you went you'd unlock new tech and resources. I had fun playing it for awhile but eventually moved on to something else. Now I want to play it again and can't find it on my computer, so I guess I uninstalled it. I think it was available on itch and Steam.

It was released a few years ago. It's not Singularity and not Timeshift.

The title was short, two or three words, and I'm pretty sure it was some kind of physics technobabble.

The game follows the Portal formula where the player has to solve a sequence of self-contained cube-and-button challenges in a decaying facility, except it's on a space station. The player has a device that can reverse time and cause the cubes to retrace their paths through space. The act of solving the challenges somehow generates energy. There are friendly robots with faces drawn on sticky notes. We also see the Earth explode.

I guess this is sort of a reverse TOMT. I know the artist and song title. What I don't know is anything else about this band whatsoever. I also can't recall precisely where I found the file as I saved this it around twenty five years ago. I was never really into the mellow, more emo stuff at the time so the closest comparison I can make is to Jawbreaker (I do like "Shield Your Eyes" but mostly because I associate it with memories of a girl I was infatuated with).

Anyway, at the time there were a lot of web 1.5 (?) sites. Not everyone had settled into CMS solutions, MySpace, LiveJournal, etc. Some of the really cool kids were picking up Flash if only to embed audio into their sites. That's how I nabbed this. I remember a mostly black background site with yellow buttons/links and a yellow top banner with an integrated flash audio player. One of the other songs in their rotation, if I'm not mixing memories, was "Lebanese Blonde" by Thievery Corporation. Not relevant, unless that jogs anyone else's memory, but possibly what led me to finding SomaFM.

I can date it to around 2000 because the audio had Macromedia Flash 5 data embedded or vice versa. I extracted the SWF and it's just the text "Sono" with the audio playing. Tried running strings on it, hoping for URLs or whatever, but the only metadata is the artist and title. So I separated the mp3 audio and threw it on catbox.

If anyone knows anything else about this band/song, I'd love to hear it. Were they ever on mp3.com? Any demo tapes floating around? Anything. I can't imagine many (any?) other people even have this track at this point. I've got nothing searching the lyrics. Musicbrainz failed me (although I'm admittedly not skilled in searching it)...

I think my only real hope is that this reaches someone once associated with the band or someone that ran a long-forgotten website a quarter of a century ago.

Edit: this was supposed to have a link attached but I'm not seeing it, so - Sono "Homicide"

Hi all,

I'm looking for a video I lost track of.

The video is fully narrated, the visuals are animated but only support the narration. The author describes their journey in the creative arts, as they graduated from a creative arts degree and attempted to find a job. They quickly found themselves locked out of the industry, being unable to find a job immediately, and being unable to either work independently or to polish their skills as they were unable to afford the software they needed, chiefly Autodesk Maya. They saved up for the software but by the time they had enough money it had transitioned to a subscription plan which was drastically more expensive.

The video went into depth on the economics of the subscriptions Autodesk offered, and the history of Autodesk and how it acquires and degrades software. It talked in depth about the state of software and subscriptions across the industry.

The animation consisted of an anthropomorphic cat as the author's self-insert, and alternated between showing real world things (like living in a small apartment with mostly just a computer) and visuals representing the feelings of the author throughout their experiences, like feeling small, or being caged or possibly being crushed. When necessary for communication the video showed web pages, both from the internet archive and present day to verify it's points on history, marketing and subscription fees.

The video was long form, likely 1-2 hours in length.

I've had no luck searching for it through google or youtube with any of the keywords autodesk, maya, cat, animation, subscription etc.

Even if you remember a word from the title or any details that can help me search that would be awesome.

I thought it was maybe Soulwax or LA Priest, and now I'm not sure if I have the lyrics wrong or if it's just that the intro lyrics aren't the Title

Recording https://voca.ro/11JELiDy1jAA

Attempt at phonetics:

Section A (Rising scales, I think an arpeggiator pedal on a lead synth)

DO-DO-DO-DO-DO-DO-DO-DO-DO-DO-DO-DO (sudden harsh break, followed by drum and lead synth in chorus) DA-DUM DA-DUM DA-DUM DA-DUM DA-DUM (Loop section A once)

Section B (low male vocals)

It all goes around. It all goes around. It all goes around. It all goes around. It all goes around. It all goes around.

Edit: I ended up just going through my Liked Songs one-by-one, and I FOUND IT

I did have the lyrics wrong, but the instrumental I was pretty close

EDIT - this has been solved over on BSky - Lee & Molly by Ziggy Marley (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L1bPoJacEl8)

That's not my BlueSky post, but sharing it here to see if anyone can work it out.

User below helped me solve it, the movie is Shark Hunter (2001). Neat movie about a kid whose parents died when a science vessel sank under mysterious circumstances. After growing up and learning about marine biology and such, he gets recruited to explore the wreckage with a team that discovers the ship and his parents were attacked by a megalodon.

Disclaimer: I know it's not Deep Blue Sea (1999). I also didn't see the beginning of the movie, and only remember parts near the end.

So the movie is about a team of researchers on a massive submarine or something similar in the deep ocean. They get attacked by sharks that are larger than average, and aggressive to the vessel. There's a moon pool big enough for a mini-sub to dock in.

A character supervising the moon pool walks onto a diving board and lays down on it to get a better view of something he sees. After laying down, one of the large sharks jumps up through the moon pool, taking the man and diving board in one bite before sinking back into the water.

Some details escape me, but the last 2 remaining characters hatch a plan, one escapes in a mini-sub while the other stays behind to kill the sharks by self-destroying the main sub. After the main sub explodes, killing the sharks, the person in the mini sub powers on their lights, only to discover an even bigger shark before arming their own self-destruct, before the movie ends.

At first I thought this might be one of The Meg movies, but I'm not sure those are correct. As I said, the moon pool scene is notably different than the one in Deep Blue Sea. I'm at a loss. I want to say it was on SciFi channel or maybe FX, but this was several years ago so I'm not sure.

I already know about the Aurora store or F-Droid to install applications for an Android phone, but there was that "repository manager" that could install and update APK files from GitHub, and... I forgot the name and I can't find it on the Google.

It could be https://github-store.org/ but I'm not sure about the name and there could be a more famous alternative.

If anyone knows, I would send you a million Schrute bucks.

Not sure if this movie exists or I just made it up in my dreams, but I saw the trailer for the Architecton movie, and it reminded me of another movie a saw about 20 years ago, but I think the movie is way older, I'm thinking the 40s maybe. I remember it was like somehow famous among cinema students, and I have previously searched for it but no luck. Although the movie is comprised mainly of shots of buildings, it was not like contemplative or peaceful, I remember it was very dramatic, it was like a time lapse so the clouds would move a lot in the background and there was thunder and lightning in some scenes. The soundtrack was also very dramatic, something like Carmina Burana maybe? I remember it being black and white, but I could have had some color in some scenes for dramatic effect. Anyways, I'm not sure if I just fell asleep at the theater and had a weird dream or if the movie is real.

I want to get this ASCII art as text, i've tried to search trough reverse search, finding character in image boards and even asked ai. The only thing i found is Japanese website that probably have this art but i need name of a character for this, so maybe someone know her, I will be very grateful for any help.
