I tried various services but idk if I'm too stupid or they can't find it because of the cuts in the video or the talking.

Hi all!

I've been looking for a video that I used to play for my kids when they were little, maybe 11-12 years ago.

It's a music video featuring a Korean (?) (maybe Japanese) rock song accompanied by a really cute animation of a hunanoid bunny or cat trying to deliver a cake.

The animation style was line outlines apart from a few solid colours used for emphasis.

The main character is trying to get a birthday cake to their friend's party, other animals are waiting.

He manages to keep to cake safe despite being squashed on the train, bumped on the street, and having a gang of thugs chase after him. While running from the thugs, he bursts through the door of the venue, trips, and the cake flies out of the box and squashes on the floor. It's a happy ending though, because the girl bunny loves the cake even though it's squashed, and the thugs are even allowed to have some cake.

I vaguely remember the lyrics saying in English "It's your birthday" during the chorus, but other than that it was all Korean/Japanese.

Please, if anyone remembers anything about this, help me!

Hello! A few years ago I saw this really good movie that I can't stop thinking about but I forgot the name and just can't find it no matter how much I try.
I'm pretty sure it's from Eastern Europe, non-English language, made kinda recently (within the last 10 years I think).
The movie starts with a mother and her toddler hundreds of years ago who live in a small hut in the forest who gets visited by a witch (I think it's some specific folklore being. She kinda looks like a burn victim, whole body is scar tissue when we see her at the beginning of the movie) then the movie jumps a few years and we see the now kid (the toddler from before) go into a cave and is stuck in there for some time.
I can't remember exactly what happened during and right after that.
But the movie then begins its actually story of this witch who kills people and then transforms into them, basically copies their physical bodies, and then goes on to live as them for several years. She lives for a long time and during the movie we see the different people, both male and female, who she lives as.
Every time she becomes someone new she has to relearn basic things so she can't talk or do simple tasks, almost like a toddler in an adult body for a while.
Her thoughts are narrated most of the time, often as whispering, and we see and listen as she explores things like sex, relationships, being these different people and as she learns to live their lives. It's very close and personal to her, we basically experience it through her mind but see her as these people in second and third person (not actually game-like third person perspective, just that we see her characters from a perspective outside those people). I think we do see through her eyes sometimes, but I'm not sure about that.

Does anyone know what movie it might be? Or have any tips on websites or ways to search to help me find it? Thanks!!

Edit: this is crazy, I found it right after making this post... So many hours trying to find it before with nothing even being close. It's "You Won't Be Alone": https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8296030/

I think the first was something like "I walk through those hospital doors"

The second or third was definitely "Doctor, doctor, give me the news"

The last one is the one I'm most vague about, something like "She was crying in the bed, something's wrong"

Seems to come up regularly in Youtube video essays and the like, for instance around 7 minutes on this Whang video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mnMRXZQLL_U

Next to impossible to find without being in video credits, and it never really makes it to the credits or description. Anyone know what the background track is called?

Wracking my brain. Alcoholic teen main character with imaginary bird friend always telling him to smoke drink and light stuff on fire. All I can remember from the theme is "he's really fucked up and we don't know why"

Hey guys, i wrote this comment yesterday in an unrelated community. Perhaps someone here has an idea what i am looking for:

This reminds me of a project I saw some years ago, it was AR glasses with just a monochrome display that would project into the eye itself, adjusted to the individual user by an optometrist.

It was less ambitious than the other projects at the time on what it would be able to display, but this had the distinct advantage of being extremely power efficient and lightweight, allowing the system to fit into a normal glasses form factor.

It also looked cyberpunk as fuck with the user having a glowing red dot in one of his eyes during use, at least to everyone else. I tried a bunch of times to google for what ever has become of it, because I was very interested in the concept as a wearer of glasses.

Does anyone by any chance know what I'm talking about? This would have been in the early to mid 2010s.

TLDR: Want my cyberpunk glasses. Pls halp

Thanks in advance 🙂

I remember an lrr video in which the actors played US-American versions of themselves or their characters (it could have been commodore hustle or Friday Nights), but I can’t find it anywhere. I remember Kathleen was either Katherine or Katie (or either of the various spellings of those two), and I think there was a joke about Graham’s name being one syllable (but I could be conflating this with another video).

It was about I belive the 1911 pistol it used CSGO as background footage and Gods gonna cut you down in the background by Jonny Cash as background music.

For a smartphone that feels good to hold in hand (like Samsung Galaxy S3) or anything that feels good to hold in hand and use.

Hello! I was wondering if any of you know if there is also a community dedicated to finding songs that you just can't remember. I remember there being one, but can't find it anymore.

Thanks in advance!

I remember from the movie some type of traditional building from asian culture where they had a zen garden with sand and theese stacked rocks that had bits of yellow/orange glow in them and one night they are either vandalised or attacked and vandalised and the stacked glowing rocks where toppled over

The movie was 3D animated

It would be funny if this ends up being an unremarkable movie.

The image has stuck in my mind for what must be two decades now. Is this familiar to anyone? And should I even bother watching it? We all know of movies that peak at the moment you notice the poster, so...

Edit: Found it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_NRBkJtNAI&t=214s

it goes something like:

"'Beauty is in the eye of the beholder?' read my {nametag/business card} buddy!"

and then it shows their nametag or business card and it says B. Holder on it

I remember several years ago, I saw a 3-5 part comedic rap series on YouTube about a guy's journey to rehome a male duck (a "drake") that he randomly came into possession of, but I can't seem to find it no matter what I search. Unfortunately, since the songs are about an actual drake, as opposed to Drake, google doesn't want to play nice when using that term paired with the word "rap".

I actually remember a decent number of specific details and can picture it so easily in my head, but it's not getting me anywhere. It's a white guy (possibly from New York?) who wear glasses. He comes into possession of this duck he can't really take care of (part 1? Don't remember how), so he calls around to different animal refuges to see if they'd want to take him, but he gets told that male ducks are sexually aggressive and therefore most places wouldn't take him (part 2?), eventually he finds some hippy lady who seems oddly enthusiastic about receiving the duck, even after being informed the duck was a bit of a bully (part 3?). I think there may have been a concluding song as well and it's possible I missed a part.

Anyone know what I'm talking about? It probably wasn't super famous, so maybe not.

I remember playing a web game about surviving in the arctic, I think. It was a turn-based grid-based roguelike. We needed to find clothes, food and observe the sun movements to find our route to safety. The graphics were very simple. As far as I remember, there were no combat and survival was very hard, with hunger and hypothermia being common threats.

Has anyone else played it? I don't remember the name and can't find it anymore.

Recently read an article, can't pronouse the word for the life of me not can I find the articles. The word was something like Patriot something..

The tldr of the old government form that was basically obsolete was all power controlled by one guy, basically a postmodern king of sorts.

It's garbage but yeah...what's the word?

Edit: it's Patrimonialism - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrimonialism

What game is this? (lemmy.world)
submitted 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) by M137@lemmy.world to c/tipofmytongue@lemmy.world
 
 

Hey, I'm wondering that game this is? It's part of this video, the link should start at the time the game is shown:

https://youtu.be/o6t3zdIQgYg?t=158

If it doesn't, the game is shown from 2:38 to 2:44

I tried asking in the comments for the video but my comment gets deleted now matter what it type... really weird.

I remember reading an article, I think on a substack site, about how the author expected (I think) the rise of facism in the US but not being lead by such pathetic losers?/nerds?/geeks?. I can't seem to find the article but it was funny and relatable and I really want to find the link again.

It might have also been an article on The Verge, 404media or maybe Vice too

I've seen a few of his videos and i'm wondering what background songs he uses. I've found most of them except for this one specific song (maybe i just didn't look up well enough).

You can hear it in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eGzWo6m68zo

It's the background song just after the intro (starting at about 3 or 4 seconds)

Thanks in advance for the help :)

EDIT: I found it, it’s Fra Mauro Crater by HOME. Link: https://soundcloud.com/home-archive4/home-unnamed-song-23

I basically made a small script with yt-dlp to scrape the youtube comments and look for anyone else that asked what the song is and periodically checked if anyone answered

All of this would’ve been avoided if i just sent an email to Tyler or if i just checked HOME’s soundcloud more carefully but whatever

I have seen it in 2023, it was a post that contained a image of statistics of how many people are named after one of the twelve Olympian gods. The image of the post had a bar chart composing of the colors red and blue, with the Greek names of the Olympians on one side of the chart, and the Roman names on another.

the movie was from the 2010s or earlier, the movie also seemed to parody/feature characters such as snow white

one of the characters had prominent front teeth.

I was going to make a community like this on Lemmy, it’s like if someone had the username shitballs69 but posted actual helpful advice

There's no XO / Executive Officer character in the cast list, and I've searched the character's lines but nothing much comes up except for a Cinema Fanatics article that points to Tom Berenger. It does look like him, but Berenger is the marine recruiter at the start of the movie per the cast list. Is it him playing the XO as well later in the movie, or someone else?
