I wanna say I can't make out the letter because I'm on my phone but shit, could someone translate?

That doesn't belong in the pointless thread. It belongs in the "things that make May want to cry" thread.

But May, sometimes this is the, "Things that make people cry," thread

These are real videos but with optical effects applied that make them look like puppetry. It's pretty cool:

optical effects

Tilt-shift photography, or in this case cinematography.

The Fantastic Mr. Star Fox

That was kind of stupid. The voices are good, but I feel like the people who made it have never seen Fantastic Mr. Fox.

Caleb · « **Reply #163 on:** 10 Mar 2011, 14:50 »

I never saw the movie but I thought it was pretty hilarious.

But maybe that's because I got all the Star Fox references.

Maybe so, but they definitely saw at least one Wes Anderson film.

I loved that Fantastic Mr. Star Fox, especially when Star Wolf said, "I can't let you do that, Star Fox"

I don't know, it looks like most of the people on their are saying that the people saying it's karmic payback for Pearl harbor are real douche bags.

EDIT: But fuck, there sure are a lot of them.

The "Did X help during Katrina?" comments make me so mad too. I heard the same thing after the Indonesian Tsunami. The thing is they did. Both Japan and Indonesia offered aid to the US after Katrina, a lot of countries did, many of which have much worse economies. The US just declined most of it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_response_to_Hurricane_Katrina

Two of my uncles damn near had a falling out over Thanksgiving because politics came up for some damn reason and one of them not-so-casually mentioned that it was a primarily Muslim country (the UAE) that ponied up the most cash.

Paste this code into your url and play katamari on the QC forums! Courtesy of kathack

Code: [Select]

absolutely genius.

jhocking · « **Reply #180 on:** 13 Mar 2011, 07:25 »

that is very awesome

Does it work in all browsers? I would be surprised if that works in IE.

pwhodges · « **Reply #181 on:** 13 Mar 2011, 07:33 »

Doesn't work in any browser for me (IE, Safari, Firefox, Opera, Chrome running in Windows 7 x64).

IE displays nothing; Safari returns to the home page; Opera and Firefox display the start screen but without a start button; Chrome displays the start button but returns to the homepage when it is pressed.

Sorry if this is too obvious, but do you have javascript enabled? I know I had to adjust that.

StaedlerMars · « **Reply #185 on:** 13 Mar 2011, 08:14 »

It's meant to work just in Chrome I think, also do you have a mouse? I couldn't get it to work with my macbook cause of the whole one button thing.

OH MY GOD. It works, and also Katamari is my favorite. and I love this. so fun.

It works in Firefox on my mac so it's definitely not only Chrome.

It should work in any browser that can do that fancy CSS transform stuff.

Confirmed working on Chrome in Win7 x64.
Confirmed not working in Opera 11 on same platform.

I don't have it installed on my PC yet but apparently IE 9 does support CSS transform:
