@jegga Was this a hallucination:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batman_(1966_film)
It would be a hallucination if I saw it but this is the first time I've heard of it and the movie geeks who made that list chucked in all sorts of obscure films and somehow missed that.
If you saw it was it any good?
It was fucking awesome. If memory serves, it's where the bomb gif meme comes from and the shark repellent spray gets deployed as he hangs from a helicopter ladder.
Pure genius. Best bits of the original movie.
That is so good. To think we all thought Jaws was the first time a shark exploded on screen. We're so naive.

Always enjoyed seeing Luke's uncle in action!
This vid has jogged my memory. I remember watching this with my Grandad ( he would be 95 if he was still with us ) and both of us cracking up at the ridiculousness of it all. Egghead is my favourite villain, probably due to all the horrific puns.
It's nothing but 'Dad' ( or Grandad ) humour to an absolute tee but it's done so well whereas other stuff falls flat and is absolute shit. Such a fine line but they nail it with aplomb.
Kudos to West, the other actors and the writers for some top quality entertainment.
Somedays you just can't get rid of a bomb.

@Nepia I was going to post it at smoko but couldn't figure out which thread it belonged in. We need a dedicated feral watch thread.
It's a great find wherever it's put. Why didn't her solicitors ever say "no mate you're on a hiding to nothing. Give it a rest and take your medicine"? Oh yeah, legal aid. Gotcha.
Legal aid pays fuck all so the legal advice probably amounted to "you're fucked, all we can do is mitigate the damage", but a) the lawyer's job is to represent the client as instructed, and b) keeping prosecutors honest is a worthy aim, and relies heavily on legal aid since many people can't afford serious lawyers at $300+/hr. Even fuckwits have legal rights to protect.

Agree on the last sentence . She's on a hiding to nothing though.
Here's her story, she's had an incredibly shit run in life and has very bad taste in men .http://www.cpag.org.nz/assets/Publications/3-0 Kathryn's Story-web.pdf

@Godder Oh, I agree in principle that even fuckwits have legal rights to protect. I just can't get my head around something like this going to the Supreme Court. Did the woman involved come up with that idea on her own, or was she encouraged to do so? If so, to what end?

Bloody hell, I fucking love that guy. Was obsessed with Linkin Park back in the day, and still listen to their stuff from time to time. Very sad.... RIP.

Apparently it would have been Chris 53rd birthday as well ( the 2 were very close)
Too fucken young

I always thought Linkin Park were shit so in one sense this death means nothing but the old 'millionaire rock star with the dream life leaving 6 kids etc' whingers come out in force every time this happens.
Goes to show mental health doesn't discriminate. It effects every single type.
RIP 2017
