More that the hand was open and the figures being pressed directly into the skin, as if he was going to grab the heard directly without cutting it open first. It’s not something you see often as there’s the sternum in the way. I don’t know if there’s some Indian myth it’s based off of or maybe some other piece of Indian cinema. It was a very specific scene, but it’s 5 hours to go though, so I’m not going to be able it quickly.

When I said “something real”, I just meant a preexisting idea in India. The movie was Baahubali. There was a scene where the villain was trying to reach his hand into the hero’s chest in exactly the same was as the cult leader in Temple of Doom.

Temple of Doom had way more questionable scenes in it with the banquet, the heroic British soldiers at the end and… Short Round. Did they really have to name him that?

Although the cultists were based on a real group and I actually saw something that looked like the heart thing in an Indian movie, so maybe that’s based on something real as well.

Yeah, it’s definitely a little questionable when the people currently inhabiting the land have no direct connection to the people who made the artifacts. And then you got shit like this. Or this. Or this.

For me, “Social Media™” requires algorithm based media to be delivered to you without your input and heavy advertisement model attached that introduces corptate bias.

Lemmy is more like a fancy forum. Not quite the same as old bbs forums, but still better then twitter, facebook and whatever the hell reddit is becoming.
