      Any photo of him does that, same with Trump and many other old politicians and random famous people. And mostly it’s the religious ones, there’s just something so fucked inside them that shows more and more as they age. I’ve never seen a “celebrity-preist” that didn’t make my stomach turn, even if I didn’t know who they are at the time.

        Fifth Element was something I never heard of until relatively recently in my life. This scene reminded me of an old movie I saw wherein someone had a chip installed in their brain to receive “S-Mail” (short for “skull mail”) and the antagonist used it to blow up their skull. I thought the movie was the 90s Captain America, but I haven’t been able to find anything to support that.

        I wish I could remember the movie. Not because it was necessarily good, but just to solve this mystery.

            That seems like something my wife would say, assuming you’re talking about Fifth Element.

            Also, you’re not wrong.

            I’ll give that a shot and try to remember to let you know. Thank you for the recommendation!

            edit: Based on the wiki summary, it doesn’t seem like it, but it’s not impossible. Either way, I appreciate the suggestion and will give the movie a watch to confirm.

          I wish I could remember the movie. Not because it was necessarily good, but just to solve this mystery.

          I have thoughts like that all the time! Just a month or two ago I had this memory of a movie where a kid gets his arm cut off by a train but couldn’t remember what it was. Everything online was saying Stand By Me, which seemed weird because I’ve never seen the movie in its entirety, just clips here or there, yet I vividly remembered seeing a lot of whatever the movie was both before and after that scenes (without actually remembering anything else about the movie itself…). So I downloaded Stand By Me and watched if all the way through because, well 1 it’s one of those movies everyone should see I just hadn’t gotten around to it, but 2 I needed to solve the mystery.

          Turns out that wasn’t it. No one loses an arm. It was actually Fried Green Tomatoes which I watched as well and holy shit that feeling when you finally see it - this thing you’ve been searching for - finally appears! Ah! Amazing! … oh yeah, kid lost his arm. Whatever. It was actually a throw away plot point in the movie too. But man, solving that riddle! Yeeeeeeesssssssss!

          Anyways, let me know if you find your movie. I feel like I’m invested in this mystery with you now!

            I think this is an appropriate time to help promote the tipofmytongue community. I’m hoping it gets a lot more activity one day. I feel the same satisfaction helping people find what they’re looking for.

    The whole thing is like that scene in Frasier where Marty Crane dyes his hair and it stains the chair
