From the seasons, it's beginning to look a lot like... Tuba Christmas!

The rule is “Books & plays may end well or badly.
But operas must end badly & movies must end well”

Rocky I was one of the few exceptions to that.

I find myself wondering about the background of the Lunar Brass Squadron.

Now only if I could run up the stairs of the Philadelphia library. Just the small fact that I am several states away and it would be far to far to travel just to do this one bit.

is this a fart joke

Ponies are so cute.

What episode is this from?

The one on the left looks almost exactly like one of my ocs.

Like the trumpeters in the mid-movie title card sequence in Monty Python and the Quest for the Holy Grail? :P

...well, I suppose in many ways it is.

Well, you really can’t go wrong with an army of tubas.

That’s a silly rule.

Falling Down and Heat also didn’t end well (depending on your definition of well, anyway)

They sure weren’t from Mare Tranquillitatis.

I’d assume that they were descendants from the whalers on the moon.

s7e15 Triple Threat, at least according to the tag on Derpibooru.

The one on the left looks almost exactly like one of my ocs.

The one with the purple eyes? She’s tagged on Derpibooru as Cornetta, which is a great name.

I’m almost afraid to google it, but I wonder if butt trumpet is a real thing?

Well, there was Le Pétomane.

Some of the highlights of his stage act involved sound effects of cannon fire and thunderstorms, as well as playing "'O Sole Mio" and "La Marseillaise" on an ocarina through a rubber tube in his anus.

That said, I did a quick search for you. "Butt Trumpet" is also the name of a band.

That would explain the regiment's ceremonial harpoon...

Oh, there are exceptions, but not many
Pygmalion ends with Eliza walking out, for instance, but
My Fair Lady last scene she comes back.
Even Blade Runner isn’t as dark as the book
-and it BOMBED in the theaters, it’s only gained a following on DVD

I could have gone my whole life not knowing that, but now I do.

Also, that reminded me of the flatulist back in King Henry’s day, who had to tumble, whistle, and fart, if I remember correctly. I think he got mentioned on one of Tom Scott’s videos, probably Citation Needed.

Right? It all makes sense.

Lots of good movies had slow launches, turning into major cult followings. Donnie Darko comes to mind, or They Live.

Roland the Farter. He's in the "See Also" section of Wikipedia's article on Le Pétomane.

Roland the Farter (known in contemporary records as Roland le Fartere, Roulandus le Fartere or Roland le Petour) was a medieval flatulist who lived in twelfth-century England. He was given Hemingstone manor in Suffolk and 12 hectares (30 acres) of land in return for his services as a jester for King Henry II. Each year he was obliged to perform "Unum saltum et siffletum et unum bumbulum" (one jump, one whistle, and one fart) for the King's court at Christmas.^[1]

Roland is listed in the thirteenth-century English Liber Feodorum (Book of Fees).

Yeah, that’s the one I was thinking of.

What a hero.
