A cartoon by Ron Cobb (1975), showing a shadow of US B-52 bomber above cratered landscape. Two people who look like Vietnamese peasants look up; one says “they’re having problems with their economy again.”
This is from 1975.
Oh yeah, he's the best
Benicio deserves an oscar for that one, apparently a LOT of his stuff was improvised
How's the falcon-falconer relationship doing?
girl are you the Straight of Hormuz because I see a lot of men greatly overestimating their chances of getting their ship into your channel
Fitzcarraldo (1982)
That scene is so funny and nerve-wracking
PUT THE JOINT DOWN, IDIOT

New Jersey residents are cowering in fear as an enormous gothic castle appeared in the night, towering over I-95.

The fact that they are making a post like that in light of this study from last week is absolutely bonkers.
"Something ineffable happens when you write down a thought:
You think something you did not know you could or would think and it leads you to another though. The process of writing itself leads to previously unthought thoughts [and] crystallizes half-formulated or unformulated thoughts"

A manga-style black and white illkustration of two guys and two gals around a table, with a smug looking dungeon master, looking like some sort of nerdy yakuza boss, in prince nez glasses looming over them in the background, arms folded.
Two adventurers, one with long dark hair and the other wearing a headscarf, examine an unfolded map of a structure and grounds.
A cloaked gal in white gloves, the same one with the straight dark hair and headband, holds up an oversized D6 with closed eyes and a finger and thumb to her forehead, as if trying to psionically influence the roll.
A lovely double spread of sketchy illustrations of adventuring gear, from lanterns, to keyrings, boxes, spikes, quivers, boots, and shirts
Preparing for an adventure, Japanese D&D Rules Cyclopedia, style!
The three-volume bunkobon localization and release in 1994 of the Cyclopedia was a turning point for D&D in Japan, shedding the western-style form factor and artwork of previous releases.
the mtg/linguistics/trans nerds have translated "death before detransition" into phyrexian.
A great ad for Dark Souls with a group of warriors in various armour sets from the game, sat in a hospital waiting room with a lady in modern day clothing looking very nervous and squished up against a wall. A door with 'surgery room' above it is open to the right of her with fiery flames and a warrior about to get smashed

Prepare to Die Again... and again...
Almost fifteen years on, the legacy of Dark Souls still resonates. And thanks to when it arrived, (as with Skyrim that same year) it's a cultural phenomenon that we can still look up and see the original memes, the original videos.

Okay, yeah, I was excited for Haunted Lands, but it's wilder than I could have imagined.
Just extrapolating via cheevos, it's GIGANTIC. Five long episodes, six characters and if the achievement list is to be believed, there's a bunch of NG+/post-game stuff too.
Ridiculous that this is under $5.
This is really specific but I love when the Kirby games use the sleep ability as a stage hazard cause then you start getting level design like this
