  1. The old man’s parrot

    Ever the prankster, just before he died, the man trained his parrot to say phrases like, “help me, I’ve turned into a parrot” and “don’t tell anyone about the gold”.

    What happened next?

  2. Thinking back about that brief period where #movies that had a single scene where the animals talk during some sort of hallucination would use that scene heavily in the trailer, I guess to make you think this movie has #TalkingAnimals in it. I guess they stopped doing that after realizing that people who wanted to see talking animals would go see it and be disappointed, and people who didn't want to see talking animals wouldn't see it at all.

    Same thing for movies that have brief moments of #animation for like, a credit sequence or a hallucination.

    Very specifically, I am thinking of the movie #KangarooJack, which I was very disappointed was only about stoners, and not a stoner film about a rapping kangaroo.

  3. Meet Bruce Tree.

    Bruce is a chipmunk Monk who channels hyper-alert woodland instincts into dizzying martial arts and acrobatic precision. Fast, jittery, and curious to a fault, he scampers up walls, slips past blades, and punches like a tempest. His fighting style -- rooted in the Way of the Drunken Master -- mimics chaos but is honed by instinct, training, and unnerving, twitchy Focus.

    Once a totally ordinary chipmunk on Earth, Bruce's reality fractured one night beneath a familiar oak. He awoke somewhere strange, somewhere magical, able to speak. Disoriented but adaptable, Bruce found himself accidentally rescuing a trio of talking birds who call themselves the Blue Jay Gang. Later, his first true ally, a half-elf druid named Juniper, gave him a name, a scarf, and a purpose. "Adventuring," she said. Bruce ran with it.

    Now he wanders the world in wide-eyed wonder, hoarding snacks and shiny objects in his enchanted “cheeks of holding” and learning the rules of a world that still thinks he’s a squirrel with delusions of kung fu. But Bruce is more than that. He knows there's a tree -- his tree -- that he may never see again. And while he doesn’t quite grasp why he’s here, he’ll follow the trail wherever it leads, even if it means stunning dragons with flurries of blows and dodging spells like falling leaves.

  4. I found the movie Nandor Fodor and the Talking Mongoose last night on Tubi. I'd never heard of it before. It's an odd movie based upon a true story. I suppose it's a sort of ghost story. I didn't hate it, but I also don't need to watch it again. I was unsettled by hearing the voice of rape-face Gaiman. I used to love his narration and writing, but now it's forever ruined for me. atlasobscura.com/articles/gef- #movies #GhostStory #TalkingAnimals #history

  8. Shortly after I snapped photo, this guy turned his head toward me, stared me down, and said, "Don't even think about coming up here." Above Grassi Lakes near Canmore, Alberta. #Nature #MountainGoats #TalkingAnimals #DumbAssHikers
