That thumbnail image really looks to me like someone microwaved Jake Gyllenhall.

I can't unsee it

(Cool track, Stupot)

Is that movie any good guys?

Up next:

Yeah it is super weird. Purists ruin everything.

Cinnamon in a latte sounds like it would be pretty good. Maybe I'll give that a go!

Something I watched recently:

Possibly that Korean movie Parasite?

Just an aside: did she throw all of those stones?!

Since nobody seems to know the answer, I'll go ahead: it's Valerie and her Week of Wonders.

Uh! I remember I watched it in the 80's, labeled as a nasty video!

I watched it ages ago and remember really liking the way several of the scenes were shot. The story is (I think) intentionally disjointed and dreamlike, so you sort of have to go with it and then discuss what meaning you can pull out of it after. Loosely reminded me of a David Lynch movie.

Yep! Your go.

Haha nice try

Well…maybe it’s time to throw in the towel. I’ll wait another five hours (using my local lunchtime as the cutoff) and then share the answer.

The Sea Voyage?

No, but I think you win for at least sharing a guess. It’s ‘The Voyage of the Mimi’, an educational PBS series that was pretty widely used in grade school curriculums to teach certain scientific concepts.

Ok all yours, Frodo!

I’m going to a children’s ‘make a pizza’ birthday party at an Italian place on the weekend and I joked with the host about adding pineapple to my pizza. Apparently the restaurant has a ‘no pineapples allowed’ policy. I’m actually tempted to sneak a tin of pineapples in and covertly add them right before my pizza gets put in the oven.

Is it called simply ‘Knight Games’?

Hints: This TV show was included in many grade school curriculums. The title of the series has the word 'voyage' in it.

Hmm, that last picture makes me think of Svankmajer's Alice, but I've never heard that described as "controversial."

Sorry I didn't reply. No, it's not that.

If you can't see it: she's putting a pearl earring into a glass of wine. (The story is quite dreamlike throughout the movie.)

Sorry but most screenshots are going to be the main characters on a boat. If it helps spark your memory, the girl pointing is deaf (in both real life and the series):

What treachery

Hey I said I'm sorry!

Here's another shot:

Sorry, these are a bit more faithful to the film:

The Seventh Seal?

No, but I can totally see why you went there. That’s a great movie.

If ‘controversial movies’ is our current tangent:

Oh it’s El Topo (I think?)

The Holy Mountain?
