  1. All right, y'all. Round 8 is super late. Usually we hit it February or March, and it's almost June.

    I may be shooting myself in the foot, as there were some disastrous behind the scenes things that happened last year that were entirely my fault (GH can attest to) But I am capable of doing it again this year. But if anyone else wants to step up, I'd be more than happy to pass the reigns. My favorite part was taking pics.

    Anyways, ideas? Volunteers? Liquor?

  2. I have always found death ceremonies both macabre and fascinating with the greatest of reverence. In Paupa New Guinea, the dead are taken to a clearing and placed on top of rocks in the sun to attract carrion eaters. Or is it placed under rocks to detract carrion eaters? Or is that only to deter thunderbirds? I can't remember, it's been a long week. But I know there are rocks involved.

    So... yeah.

    EDIT: Nope, ritual amputation. Man, I'm off my game this week. sad.png

  3. TM2, where did you get the little coffin you painted up and gave to me? Did it hold candy? It's the perfect size.

    Seriously, they're super fun and great for zombies.

    A casket is a rectangle. A coffin has sloped sides.

    Pretty sure this was a casket.

    After Dinobot educated me on the difference, I had to go back and see in which the Bride was buried. And it's really hard to tell, there are no clear external shots of the box.

    But in Dinobot's picture above, look just to the left of the flashlight beam: that's looks like a corner. There is also a hint of shape in this pic:

    Besides, a coffin is more fitting considering the wild west theme of her segment with Bud.

    I always thought caskets, or as PL says "A good ol' pine box" was more western, and a coffin was more European?

    Regardless, I went back and watched it after you mentioned it, and I'm pretty sure you're right. Check out this scene from the 0:17 mark. It is almost certainly a coffin, not a casket. There's a seam that wouldn't be there otherwise.

    EDIT: And after seeing this scene again, let me just say once more how incredibly excited I am for Kill Bill Minimates. This is truly one of my favorite movies.

  4. I'm confused.

    So, Bucky died on the train that Zola was on. Cap took Zola into custody, and he was in custody until the end of the war when he was then in Operation Paperclip and became a scientist for the Americans. Right?

    So at what point, when Zola was captured on the train that Bucky died getting to, did Zola have time to go down the the ravine and save Bucky? The timeline doesn't match.

    There was something else, too, but I forget. I liked it better the second time than the first.
