Legion World Forums LEGION COMPANION Spaceopoly Kill This Thread XLVIII - Why Won't You Die?!?!?!?

Welcome to......

Kill This Thread XLVIII

The following rules were established by Kent Shakespeare at the start of the first 24-hour version, adapted from the original rules by EDE:

The rules:

1. The Basic Idea: Post to this thread, if no one posts after you for 24 hours, you win!

2. Posts that are not direct responses to one of the five preceding posts are ineligible to win. The topic can drift, but no complete non-sequitors. Posts that are responses to non-sequitors are also ineligible to win. Posts that are responses to responses to non-sequitors, and response nses to those posts, etc., become eligible, however.

3. In the event that this thread is locked, there shall be no winner unless a new thread is started for the contest. Furthermore, any post that results in the banning of the poster shall also be ineligible to win.

4. So, more precisely, one wins if one makes a post, and then no one makes another post that's eligible to win for 24 hours.

The whys and wherefores of these threads' refusal to die are not for the faint of heart.

I can only deal with either a why or a wherefore. But never both!

What about a whyfore?

Steady on! I can't handle that kind of pressure!

I can't handle any song by Billy Joel, but especially not "Pressure."

how about Surface Pressure from Encanto?

Under Pressure from Queen doesn;t get put on as it causes too much anxiety.

I never put it on because I hate David Bowie's voice.

Maybe I should not try to listen to his voice

Listen to my voice... as the bad guy in the Ipress File started saying in a bid to trigger his brainwashed agent.

"The Ipcress File" is a great movie that influenced the look of every spy thriller that followed it.

Mind you, I find the scene where the protagonist frees himself by breaking his own fingers hard to watch.

Eh... Breaking fingers, dislocating shoulders....

Days ending in y as far as I'm concerned....

Maybe he can't feel pain...

Just like Darkman.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darkman

Bruce Campbell makes a cameo right at the end.

Yes. When Darkman becomes just another face in the crowd. Very clever of Sam Raimi.

I liked the movie. I didn't know anything about it going in, and that Raimi was the director.

It's a very well-made movie. The action sequence with Darkman hanging on to the helicopter is especially impressive.

It is, and well ahead of it's time, much like a lot of Raimi's directing.

Nura Nal is also often ahead of her time

Konk is a head in her time.

She used to dance with The Feet.

It's a shame that didn't work out, and she experienced the agony of de feet.

The feet definitely led to ago-knee
