Hey that's not a bullet

That's how I felt when I accidentally called my 2nd grade teacher mom.

[–]hlfempty69 12 points13 points ago

we've all been there

[–]Station1337 1 point2 points ago

Oh god we have, its terrible.

This happened to me with a twist...she actually was my mom

[–]EverythingIsShopped 29 points30 points ago

Evangelion anyone?

[–]Baddiekins 14 points15 points ago

There were too many things in common for them to be coincidental, IMHO.

[–]elitetoast 15 points16 points ago

The giant pillars with numbers on them and "Sound Only" is pretty much the definition of SEELE, the religious themes are present in both, NOT ENOUGH MECHS THOUGH DAMNIT.

[–]Skvid 8 points9 points ago

Also the crusifix nuke

[–]Mcflexington 5 points6 points ago

They are n2 bombs, which stands for Non Nuclear, so not exactly nukes.

[–]bersh 2 points3 points ago

Any relation to the "Snuke"?

[–]Mcflexington 1 point2 points ago

Now that episode I would watch.

[–]Netheral 2 points3 points ago

Also the "Jesus on the cross thing".

[–]Amyndris 5 points6 points ago

This this is basically the live action spiritual successor to Evangelion. From the cross shaped explosions at 1:37 to Jesus/Lillith crucifixion at 1:05 to the Tree of Life/Kabbalah imagery at 0:04 to the Communication Monoliths at 0:07 it just screams Evangelion.

Now I know Evangelion stole a lot of those symbols from religious history, but the way they used all of those imagery to create this pseudo-mythical backdrop is too coincidental for it to be just by chance. Definitely they drew a great deal of inspiration from NGE.

[–]i_photoshop_tophats 2 points3 points ago

the opening did remind me of evangelion.

[–]Jewpandax17 2 points3 points ago

what is evangelion?

[–]Mcflexington 3 points4 points ago

An anime.

[–]HardModeEnabled 0 points1 point ago

An The anime.

[–]CannibalShinobi 2 points3 points ago

Hm, not the ending just ruins it for me to call it The anime. Cowboy Bebop is The anime if anything.

[–]Mcflexington -1 points0 points ago

What's wrong with the ending?

[–]CannibalShinobi 3 points4 points ago

Well in the original series the ending was completely broken. The company ran out of money and ended up having to end the series in a way that made no sense. It went from Awesome Mecha Drama to a complete psychological mind fuck that answered nothing and gave no conclusions. After the original series I haven't followed up on anything new with it due to the grand disappointment, did they fix it?

[–]Mcflexington 3 points4 points ago

The ending you saw was basically about Shinji's experience. End of Evangelion tells what happened. I agree that the original ending alone was not a good conclusion, but I think that if you understand what exactly was happening, you would be able to appreciate it based on its own respects.

[–]Jimmy255 1 point2 points ago

what is google?

[–]03Titanium 19 points20 points ago

Malware. I deleted it long ago.

[–]Norma5tacy 3 points4 points ago

Along with system 32?

Dafuq???

[–]OhBall 25 points26 points ago

Honestly, this is the only appropriate response.

[–]LEGITIMATE_SOURCE 3 points4 points ago

Oh balls

[–]ThePheenix 2 points3 points ago

And you didn't provide the source... why?

[–]HoldMaahDick 12 points13 points ago

Has anyone seen this?

[–]BiJiS 44 points45 points ago

It's not a actual movie as stated on the website, "'In God We Trust' serves as a demonstration piece designed to attract the attention of Film Studios and potential investors utilising a “Look what we have created with no resources, imagine what we could do with a reasonable budget” approach."

[–]TheyCallMeTomSawyer 26 points27 points ago

So basically they made up an already fake movie?

[–]Space_Bungalow 13 points14 points ago

http://www.archetype-movie.com/

This (and the short film featured on the website) is probably the best example of a top-notch zero budget movie.

[–]RogueThrax 1 point2 points ago

I think they forgot that guns have recoil.

[–]Wanderer89 -3 points-2 points ago

This ruined the whole video for me, couldn't take anything else even half-serious after the guy just stood there motionless emptying a glock 18.

[–]MrSomethingHeroic 1 point2 points ago

This is the first movie in a Super Best Friends backstory.

[–]schabrackentapir 1 point2 points ago

That looks hilarious.

[–]Upinuranus 0 points1 point ago

Thank you so much for that.

[–]juggalonumber27 0 points1 point ago

would be awesome if it were an actual movie and not just a movie studio shopping prop. looked interesting.... oh well, maybe some day

[–]DICKTracey 0 points1 point ago

The FUCK did I just watch?

[–]BroadStreetElite 0 points1 point ago

Looks like a bunch of Eastern Europeans took MDMA and made a movie

[–]ANAL_PONDERER -1 points0 points ago

A good title for that is gods and guns.

[–]morpix 1 point2 points ago

In GIF form?

[–]Mecchio 26 points27 points ago

Been browsing /r/gonewild lately?

[–]gunslingerroland 27 points28 points ago

But... but this title says "be gentle" . . .

[–]HandOfTheCEO 5 points6 points ago

your comment says that too ...

[–]mallardwithacold 5 points6 points ago

what movie is this from?

[–]mishtram 3 points4 points ago

In God We Trust.

[–]puppymeat 3 points4 points ago

Was hoping it would be this one.

[–]Valdair 45 points46 points ago

I rather prefer this one

[–]Nj_all_day 19 points20 points ago

Dude..... If you saw the video.... you would feel really bad...

[–]Valdair 33 points34 points ago

I have seen it. Sure, it was horrible. But if there's one thing that holds true, we get over things quite quickly. Can't dwell on the shit that's happened in the past, let alone things you've only seen through a screen. You'd ruin yourself carrying on like that. Someone makes a humorous gif out of it, the internet at large moves on like nothing ever happened.

[–]larkable 7 points8 points ago

I still remember that sound as it came crashing down...

[–]FlappyTheNarwhal 35 points36 points ago

it went like vrooom

But who cares.

[–]Wowbringer 0 points1 point ago

I have an urge to learn more about the origins on that gif. Can you fill me in?

[–]W34PON 5 points6 points ago

A pilot lost control of a plane at the Reno, NV Air Races. Took a nosedive right into the crowd

[–]WRappiii -4 points-3 points ago

But it's okay, we're over it now.

I mean, it shows a complete lack of sympathy and respect the dead but who cares right? It's funny!

I honestly expected Valdair's comment to be heavily downvoted, -1 faith in humanity

[–]Airazz 0 points1 point ago

Bad shit is happening all around the world every single day, no exceptions. Bombs explode, buses full of people crash, ships sink, tornadoes and earthquakes destroy towns and cities. If you felt very bad about every single one of those events, then you'd be crying pretty much all the time. You would then get super-depressed and kill yourself. Do you really want everyone in the world to kill themselves?

[–]WRappiii 1 point2 points ago

I completely agree. If everyone went around feeling sad for all the bad shit that happens, no one would ever be happy.

But that doesn't make it perfectly okay to make fun of tragedy. Especially by just editing the footage of the event.

Obviously I am all for free speech, I just expected people to think "Wow, that's in bad taste. Funny or not, that's fucked up.'

[–]thisisbearcub -1 points0 points ago

Flawless logic right there.

[–]eenieboy 0 points1 point ago

Why would it be downvoted, it was worded well. That makes it right silly!

[–]Wootman42 0 points1 point ago

You don't downvote if you disagree. You downvote if it's a useless post. In theory, at least.

[–]king_of_the_universe 2 points3 points ago

For example: If you watch 9/11 backwards, you see the rapid construction of two billion dollar skyscrapers, workers move in via jetpacks, and they build two passenger planes that can even fly backwards, all in under two hours!

[–]oligobop 1 point2 points ago

That is exactly what is wrong with modern media. Thank you for reminding me why I feel guilty browsing reddit.

[–]RockingTheRitz 0 points1 point ago

If you don't mind me asking, what was this video about?

[–]Valdair 1 point2 points ago

It was a stunt plane crash. Somehow the pilot lost control and the plane crashed into the spectators.

[–]RockingTheRitz -1 points0 points ago

Ah, well thank you. But yeah, then I agree with you. A stunt plane crashing definitely isn't up there with the rest of the worse stuff on the interwebs.

[–]Esstehfawn 0 points1 point ago

Don't mind me, im just gonna comment for a video source to pop up later, that looked pretty crazy

Holy Shit that was horrible, but thanks for all those videos

[–]The_Determinator 2 points3 points ago

You should pay mind to Reddit Enhancement Suite

[–]Esstehfawn 1 point2 points ago

Ah yes, I have that but right now im on mobile

[–]bobsmith93 1 point2 points ago

Are those people flying in the background?

[–]Valdair 2 points3 points ago

The video was a really fucked up plane crash. It was a stunt plane, I believe... pilot went unconscious or had a heart attack or something, crashed into the spectator area.

[–]Incursus 3 points4 points ago

The trim tab broke off of his elevator causing a loss of control. In the wikipedia article, a similar incident is cited near the bottom, but the pilot was able to walk away. The pilot who survived experienced 10g's of force and it caused him to pass out after the trim tab broke away. It's speculated that the same thing happened to the Reno pilot. Since he was so close to the ground, he didn't have any altitude to recover from if he had regained consciousness.

2011 Reno Air Races Crash for anyone wondering what this is from.

[–]squireofrnew 0 points1 point ago

What's this from?

[–]Incursus 0 points1 point ago

2011 Reno Air Race Crash

A P-51 lost part of it's elevator (the trim tab) while in a turn and lost control right into the stands.

[–]Upinuranus 2 points3 points ago

As gentle as one can be...

Fire at will.

[–]PersonalStalker 10 points11 points ago

Fairly certain that isn't at all how a bullet would affect you.

[–]jamz666 25 points26 points ago

how many people have you seen get shot in the mouth in super slow mo?

[–]macros-the-black 6 points7 points ago

Generally speaking: entry wound small, exit wound big. Unless you're firing chainsaws at people.

[–]RouseHouse1013 26 points27 points ago

CoD player here. PersonalStalker is telling the truth.

[–]morpix 1 point2 points ago

Irrefutable.
