Solved [TOMT] [ACTOR] I've recently been reminded of a UK actor from the 90s and despite spending close to an hour searching and talking to AIs about who it could be I'm no closer to finding the actor - please help!

0 Upvotes

He was a large guy who played a gangster sort of heavy/boss - possibly to do with a nightclub but he had a very distinctive facial mole and (I think) white hair. In my mind, he was associated with Hale and Pace's bouncers but I'm also sure I've seen him in other things.

People I can rule out. Warran Clarke - some resemblance but definitely not him. not Andy Linden, not Ron Tarr.

I feel like I'm going mad - if anyone can help with suggestions I'd be very grateful!

Open [TOMT][TV/Movie][Pre-2012] Injected drug turns eyes fully black and gives super strength; overdose shows the heart exploding from inside the body

0 Upvotes

Saw this before 2012 at a friend's house; his dad was watching it, so it was definitely for adults. Characters take or inject a drug/serum that goes into their blood. Their eyes turn completely black (whole eyeball) and they get super strength and agility. If someone takes too much, their heart pumps too hard and explodes. There's a scene where the camera zooms inside the person's body and shows the heart bursting. Not sure if it was a TV show, a movie, or an animated segment. Any ideas?
Also not sure if it was a drug or blood it’s hard to remember

Open [TOMT]Ищу ролик, даже несколько, возможно они мне приснились, или я шиз. Мини ролик не знаю каких годов, тематики геймерских глитчей и путешествий во времени.

0 Upvotes

В воспоминаниях гуляет такой вот ролик: идет кот, вроде как в плаще, проходит через дверь, спотыкается о порог, пробует снова, снова спотыкается. потом он что-то включает, идет, спотыкается и зацикливает анимацию падения своего тела. И так он проходит порог без спотыкания. То ли он сам дальше проходит. то ли там прикол в пространственно временном прыжке и уже он же но из прошлого проходит. или будущего. Это 2д анимация, мультяшная, кот антропоморфный, возможно с часами на лапе, не уверен. Дверь обычная вроде, просто сквозь нее проходит. Кот вроде рыжий, плащ серый или зеленый. Если вообще плащ был.

Есть так же и второй ролик, там примерно то же, но крокодил, он застревает уже в другой анимации, но тут я вообще почти ничего не помню.

Нейронка гугла говорит что это какие-то популярные ролики из тик тока итд, что раньше вирусились. типа их делали независимые аниматоры и показывали незаурядную геймерскую логику, спидраны и тд. Но нейронка не дает никаких ссылок, просто на основе моих воспоминаний строит образы и гворит что "да, было, ищи", но найти не получается. Возможно я шиз и все это мне привидилось во сне... Но может и нет, если кто в курсе, подскажите. А то эта дресня уже как пол года в мозгу сидит и зудит.

I’ve been looking for a series I was reading or read in the past. The main character gets summoned to a school gym with others via envelope or invite? And each invite has a rating like bronze, silver and gold. The school is like a tutorial zone and a monster is chasing the players constantly. In the school it has like a gacha mini game too. After all that they get sent to a different zone and progress further. If anyone knows I’d appreciate the help. Thanks everyone!

Open [TOMT][MOVIE]Man/monster with red shoes/boots that make him fly/jump far - eats children

0 Upvotes

I remember seeing the movie on TV (SBS) in the early 2000s, but the movie was probably from the 70s-90s (maybe older). It's live action, not cartoon. There was a boy who got trapped by a man/monster in his castle/house and the man was going to eat him. But the boy took the man/monsters magic red shoes/boots and flew away to escape.

There was subtitles, the movie was possibly in German or French (definitely not English).

The story might be based on European folklore about Seven League Boots (they were red in the movie).

This unsolved post seems to be similar to mine: https://www.reddit.com/r/tipofmytongue/comments/ou0bpz/tomt_movie_man_with_red_flying_boots_eating_kids/

Edit: someone else also searched for it here with no luck. The man/monster definitely accidentally kills his own daughters.

Open [TOMT][2020s] TV series or movie with Mozart Symphony 41 repeated

0 Upvotes

I cannot get this music out of my head! I am thinking of a tv series or a film that has what I believe to be an altered version of Mosart's Symphony no 41 playing repeatedly. The song is a bit different than the recordings of that I have found however so I have not been able to find the exact one, must be some parts of the symphony with new writing perhaps?

In my memory the song comes on again and again any time the main character, a man, does something weird or something happens to him. I think it is sci-fi but I really can't remember what is happening but it feels ominous in my memory. It is something quite recent, last couple of years I think.

Solved [TOMT][webtoon][2017-2024?] old manga or WEBTOON I CANT remember the name of.

0 Upvotes

First time posting here or I forgot so idk the etiquette but I’m gonna jump into it.
So the plot is this guy bites it (I think) and is isekai or something into a fantasy kingdom as a beggar. A prince finds him and it turns out they look exactly the same so the prince takes him on as a body double. Prince from different kingdom comes around and fall in love with the body double SPECIFICALLY and not the real prince. The kingdom is overthrown by a revolution and the real prince dies intentionally because he’s sick and dying anyway. Body double guy goes to Prince who loves him territory for aid except whoopsie he started the revolution and was so sad thinking he died until he saw them in his kingdom. Bro chains up the MC and a bunch of other stuff happens.
Other details I remember
1: I think there was extra chapter where MC tried to make chili powder for ramen noodles but failed and made a super effective interrogation method.
2: the prince had blue hair in a pony tail I think?
3: at some point the MC jumps off a cliff and the story diverged where in one instance he returns to his original world and another where he just goes through a secret escape route in the water.

Let me know if I did anything wrong here. Sorry and thank you!

Open [TOMT] A song I can’t remember the name of from SoundCloud

0 Upvotes

I’m losing my mind. There was a song I remember hearing on SoundCloud years ago but can’t remember the name of. I remember it being a simple song with a solo guy singing it. I can barely remember the lyrics but near the end a guy sings “here's the church and here's the steeple open the doors and see all the people”. But because that’s a nursery rhyme I can’t get anywhere close to finding the song. I remember liking it so much because a podcast called “Forgive Me!” Had a theme that sounded like part of the song I’m thinking of. It’s killing me not being able to find or remember it fully.

I saw an absolutely wild pre-roll ad today on Youtube that I don't even know what it was for? It was an orange haired typical anime girl playing some sort of 8-bit RPG game on console and in the background a couple people steal her household items??? and then it said something like "you're gonna need milk." it was so baffling and now I can't find any evidence that it exists

Anyone else see this and know what it's for?

Solved [TOMT] [BOOK] A book about children sent to a prison island for the misdeeds

1 Upvotes

There’s a book I read maybe 10 years ago that I can only remember vaguely. The only thing I do remember is the main character was a boy with burn marks sent to prison for burning down his family’s home with his younger sister inside. It was revealed that the sister had accidentally caused the fire while playing with a pack of matches iirc. He wasn’t able to save her. I believe it was a stand alone.

ETA: I just remembered that the kids imprisoned were able to escape towards the end

Open [TOMT] [ANIME/MUSIC] Anime short music video about a witch and her henchmen

1 Upvotes

The entire short animation revolves around this pale Witch, wearing a total black hood, kinda like Batman, has horns like maleficent and is very skinny and tall. In the video she dances with her three anthropomorphic henchmen to an upbeat old style anime song, that sounds something like The Monster Kid's japanese opening. Initially the witch is shown to be preparing some sort of alchemical concoction, and as a skit, the henchmen go through the lab glassware like fluids passing from one glass to another; they then dance to the song's rhythm, and most of the song's hook is about the lead male singer laughing to the rhythm. In the last few scenes a fourth character appears, which is a pink blob that seems to be a Multi-faceted hivemind, that also lifts the witch up high and makes her dance a little.

Sadly I came across this gem of an animation through Pinterest a long while ago, but I have no idea where it comes from or when it was made. I reckon it could have been made way before Y2K and has that og dragon ball series look and parodic animation.

So many nights I lie awake

Thinking about you, baby
It’s my fault. I’m the one to blame.
My mistakes became your tears

It wasn’t a mainstream song, but I also have no idea where it came from 😅😅😅😅😅

Open [TOMT] Need help identifying/finding VERY NICHE tragic/horror manga, characters are animal people

1 Upvotes

I want to reiterate that its a disturbing story.

I remember the start, end and characters but i cannot seem to find it. (WARNING: involves dead bodies, child death) It involves a embalmer (black cat?), that makes shrunken heads for decoration/alternative to urns from what i remember. There is a girl that may or may not have animal ears that gets adopted by the man, the man keeps to himself and slowly gets to know her as she gets curious about his job or something and helps him. She ends up being sick and dies by the end and he makes a shrunken head and a person that visits the place and how its beautifully decorated or something.

i remember a scene where she is holding the bottom of his coat as they go out to the market or something. i am at the end of my rope after searching everything, anything would be appreciated. Many thanks in advance, i read the whole thing but forgot the name of it and i cant find it in my history.

Open [TOMT][TV SHOW][2000s-2012] Help finding a CGI animated series I saw only once as a kid – boy hero and a villain in black with a forearm punching weapon

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I hope you're doing well. I'd really appreciate any help with this one, as it's been on my mind for years.

When I was a child in Brazil, I watched a single episode of a cartoon on TV Globinho (Globo's morning cartoon block). I was so excited by it, but unfortunately it never aired again – or at least I never managed to catch it again. Because I only saw it once, my memories are quite vague, so I apologize in advance if some details aren't accurate. I'm fairly sure it was before 2013.

Here's what I can remember:

- It was 3D/CGI animation, really beautiful, with Pixar/DreamWorks-like quality (not cel-shaded or video-game looking)

- It seemed like an episode of a series rather than a movie

- The setting felt somewhat futuristic

- The protagonist was a boy (he might a boy wearing armor – I'm not sure)

- The villain was human and dressed in black

- The villain had a punching weapon or gauntlet on his arm that made his forearm look huge and let him throw powerful punches

Titles I've already checked that aren't it: Iron Kid/Eon Kid, Cubix, Max Steel, Big Hero 6, Meet the Robinsons, Astro Boy (2009), Treasure Planet, Iron Man: Armored Adventures, and Jimmy Neutron.

Since it only seemed to air once, it could have been a short-lived series, a pilot, or a special.

Any ideas or suggestions would mean a lot to me. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this!

So basically the game was a zombie apocalypse rp with some factions i think bandit was one of them and it had zombie npcs, a prison, a cornfield, some houses as well and also food. I think you started with a pistol with limited ammo. One of the outfits had a leather jacket, and the cover photo was of a roblox character dressed as a sheriff, similar to Rick Grimes from Season One of The Walking Dead.
