  • i'm not going to spoil more of the movie, it is an absolute masterpiece. cult worthy.

    the first one so far where i was sad the 2 hours were over already.

    wikipedia: "Salvador Dalí was approached in 1973 to design a Surrealist tarot deck for the film. However, his fee was too expensive for the film budget. Dalí kept working at the deck and released it in 1984."

    there are many "The Man With The" movies, but this is The Man With The Golden Gun (1974). of course you think they mean bond with this, but the golden gun swinger is no one less than an "anti-bond" villain, played by christopher lee (dracula, lotr) a bizarro bond. a moustached bond without moustache.

    this is trippy deconstructed bond. pairs well. out there and brimming with idiosyncratic choices. they give the audience what they want, and yet side against the myth. it's almost brechtian.

    hervé villechaize (paradise island) is also in this, playing lee's surrogate son, i mean apprentice, i mean henchman.

    we continue with The Spy Who Loved Me (1977). the title song is "Nobody Does It Better", performed by carly simon ("you're so vain").

    german curd jürgens (the longest day) plays the baddie, named "stromberg". yes.

    the typical bond orchestral theme is now spiced up with a funk band - complete with cowbell. groovy baby!

    starts with a kickass basejumping stunt.

    this movie is (or adds to) ground zero of the supervillain trope. it has the iconic henchman "jaws" (played by richard kiel), who has metal dentures, designed by katharina kubrick. stanley kubrick directed the lighting for one scene of this movie.

    apropos "jaws": a shark is used to dispose of a supposedly traitorous secretary. this is the second time i have seen sharks used as weapons in this series.

    we get to vacay in egypt and listen to egyptian funk. a lot of classical music references too.

    Laser Cutter Plus CYMK Spraypaint Equals Full-Color PrintsThis is one of those fun hacks that come about from finding a product and going “I wonder if I could…” — in this case, artist/YouTuber [Wesley Treat] found out his favourite vendor makes spray cans in CYMK colours– that is the Cyan, Yellow, Magenta and blacK required for subtractive printing. Which got him wondering: can I make full-colour prints with this paint?The MDF-based print, with naive half-tone dots.His answer was “yes”, and the process to do so is fairly simple. First, split the image into colour channels, generate a half-tone pattern for each one, and carve it out of MDF on the laser. Then spray the MDF with the appropriate colour spray paint. Press the page against each block in turn, and voila! A full colour print block print, albeit at very low DPI compared to your average inkjet.Now, you might be wondering, why half-tone instead of mixing? Well, it turns out that these CYMK paints are too opaque for that to work in a block-printing process. At least with a naive spray technique; [Weseley] does admit a very fine mist might be able to make that work. The second question is why not just hook the rattle cans into a CNC machine for a paint-based mega inkjet? That’s a great question and we hope someone tries it, but [Weseley] evidently likes block-printing so he tried that first.The Mylar stencil print, with a more artistic half-tone pattern.Laser-ablating enough MDF away to make decent print blocks took too long for [Weseley]’s tastes, however, so he switched to using mylar stencils. Instead of spraying a block and pressing onto it, the paint is sprayed through the stencil. The 10 mil Mylar not only cuts faster, but can support finer detail. Though the resulting prints loose some of the artistic flair the inconsistencies block printing brings, it probably looks better.If you prefer to skip the manual paint-can-handling, perhaps we can interest you in a spray-can plotter. If you do like manually flinging paint, perhaps you could try this dot-painting spray can attachment, for a more self-directed half-tone.Thanks to [Keith Olson] for the tip.youtube.com/embed/qV7yNM8mUBE?…hackaday.com/2025/12/16/laser-…
