did you know that before they decided on a cgi baby for the twilight movie they had planned to use this ANIMATRONIC baby
feel like this also begs the question: why did the people who were in charge of this consider two alternatives for this character instead of just, like, a real human baby. i can’t imagine you couldn’t just nab some newborn off a crew member or friend
…
I want to die!!!!
this is the funniest post I’ve seen on tumblr in forever
I have never seen these movies in their entirety and was unaware there was a cgi baby in it so I am posting this gif of a scene I discovered was genuinely used in the movie twilight unironically
Is that when the werewolf falls in love with the baby
Because that was a thing, the werewolf falls in love with the baby
“Oh I wasn’t in love with YOU! I was in love with the baby inside of you all along.” Because that’s a regular thing to write, STEPHANIE. MEYER.
can you blame him i mean that is one hot baby
SO THATS WHERE IT COMES FROM IVE BEEN USING
FOR YEARS I NEVER KNEW IT WAS FROM TWILIGHT HAHAHAHAHAHA
what the fuck
reason why they didn’t use a real baby: who would trust vampires and werewolves with their child?
They say that the crew who made her had lost the animatronic and that she is still out there. Aparently some of the crew members are afraid to find her again
This was a weird and wild ride from start to finish.
I, for one, hope that animatronic is in Hell where it belongs. lol
Just for once I’d like to tell the gate agents and flight attendants that my folding wheelchair is going into the onboard closet and not have them tell me there’s “no room”. Bitch that’s a wheelchair closet, not a “your bags” closet. Move your damn bags where they belong.
Ok, so according to my friendly aviation expert, this is a Big Fucking Deal. In fact, if an airline argues with you about putting your wheelchair in the wheelchair closet or even suggests there may not be room, unless there is already anotherpassenger’swheelchair in that closet, they have violatedfederallaw.
CFR Title 14, Chapter II, Subchapter D, Part 382, Subpart E, Section 382.67, Subsection (e)
“As a carrier, you must never request or suggest that a passenger not stow his or her wheelchair in the cabin to accommodate other passengers (e.g., informing a passenger that stowing his or her wheelchair in the cabin will require other passengers to be removed from the flight), or for any other non-safety related reason (e.g., that it is easier for the carrier if the wheelchair is stowed in the cargo compartment).”
This is hugely important because it means that if this happens to you, you should report their asses to the DOT. Why? Because these statistics are published every year for every airline, and the airline gets a huge ass fine for every violation. If we want to see change, we need to make airlines literally pay every time they treat us this way.
See this book? This was published in 1998. I got it when I was 8 from my school bus driver for being really helpful on the route map for her first day, so this book has been in my possession for 19+ years. It’s very battered, but all the pages are still there, taped together, because the binding glue didn’t react well to the environment I lived in at the time.
Page 32 has a special “Bonus” spot for Lyman, with “updated” (for 1998) profile art
Closer look at the page
JON, WHAT DID YOU DO?
Oh, and also, if you know your Garfield Lore, then Lyman was Jon’s roommate until 1983, then left for an unknown reason, leaving Odie behind. He did appear in a Logo Box for Garfield’s 10th Birthday strip in 1988, as a cameo, but for the most part, Lyman has been absent for so long, they have continually rewritten how exactly Jon obtained Odie, ranging from adopting him from the same shop as Garfield, to adopting Odie a couple years into owning Garfield.
Except for
The popular 90s Garfield flash game, “Garfield’s Spooky Scavenger Hunt”, in which you can find Lyman chained up in a basement as a hidden eastern egg. He begs Garfield to give him some muffins to eat, then disappears after you leave the room and come back.
Garfield Lore is pretty messed up when you dig around.
I’ll be honest, I totally didn’t see the fish at first, so I thought the jaguar was just taking a drink. i was sitting here being all like “dang why is this jaguar so Extra that instead of slurping up water like a normal cat it’s gotta BITE THE WATER”
how did they learn to translate languages into other languages how did they know which words meant what HOW DID TH
English Person: *Points at an apple* Apple
French Person: Non c’est une fucking pomme
*800 years of war*
Fun fact: There are a lot of rivers in the UK named “avon” because the Romans arrived and asked the Celts what the rivers were called. The Celts answered “avon.”
“Avon” is just the Celtic word for river.
Fan Fact #2: When Spanish conquistadors landed in the Yucatán peninsula, they asked the natives what their land was called and they responded “Yucatán”. In 2015, it was discovered that in those mesoamerican languages, “Yucatán” meant “I don’t understand what you are saying”
One film critic: “Rogue One was just $200 million spent on filling in a plot hole.”
Me: “Well, yeah, but it was a plot hole that needed answering, in fairness. Everyone has wondered for decades why the Death Star had such a fatal design flaw in the first place.”
Answer: Because architect Hannibal Lecter was out to get those space nazi mother fuckers and was sabotaging them from the start.
That was perfect.
It’s not just the plot hole of the flaw, “reactors need vents” would have answered that, but it explains why the first Death Star took like 20 years to build even though we saw it was half built at the end of ROTS then but the second Death Star took like 2 years.
It was because Hideo Kojimas Best Friend was fucking ruining their shit the first time, ordering the wrong screws, tripping over cables, spilling coffee on computers, accidentally hitting key engineers on he head with a 2-by-4 anything to delay the space nazis planet fucker.
Galen was the most brilliantly half-assed employee ever.
And he kept his job for 20 years without being fired!!! After all that!!! My respects
