Thread 717094870

I am currently employed as a History teacher for an IGCSE course, and I decided to re-read some information regarding the Nuremberg Trials for my students, since some of the details (more specifically those prosecuted) were a bit hazy.

I was looking for information in several different sources and I stumbled upon a video from 1945 that's actually digitized version of a 1945 film called "Nazi Concentration Camps" that was made specifically to be screened in the trials themselves.

Around the 9:16 mark, they show the inside of what appears to be a shed with rows upon rows of dead bodies piled up... and that's where I found the shot. At first, the shot is taken from a different angle, but I recognized the wall from somewhere, same with the state of the corpses. Once they go in for a different shot, that's when I realized this is the picture Kowloon Kurosawa used in HK97.

I couldn't find any information online about this specific shot, only the infamous "Bosnia" one from the Game Over screen.

This is the image from the Nuremberg Trials video.

Neat.

Cool nigga, i think the death screen was some yugoslav soldier? I can't remember

>>717095775
That's the "Game Over" screen. It's a picture of a dead guy from the Bosnian war.

>>717096149
always wondered if that was a real dead guy

>>717097120
Proof to show you I am not talking out my ass. Shot comes from a Japanese shockumentary called "新・デスファイル III" or "NEW Death File 3". You can find this shot around the 28:59 minute mark.

I saw your thread on /vr/. That's pretty cool.

>>717097603
Appreciate it! I didn't mean to spam, but a fellow anon suggested I posted this somewhere more visibility than /vr/ to get more traction.

>>717094870 (OP)
Bump for an undeservedly high-quality post on this godforsaken shithole.

Wonder how long until a bunch of gaming "journalism" sites swoop in to reprint OP's discovery without credit for some AI-powered clickbait.

>>717098410
Thank you, anon! I appreciate it.

This is the link to the video, but this version that can be found in the "Internet Archive" has an intro. The exact minute the shot shows up in this version is around 9:31

What the fuck was his problem why did he own videos like that?

>>717099625
He has an edgy sense of humor.

>>717094870 (OP)
Oh wow, I always assumed these had been sourced already.
Very nice and historical find, anon, thank you for sharing.

>>717099625
I know it's hard to fathom in the post-liveleak, "dead kids on twitter", internet culture of today, but back then stuff like this was novel and people sought it out. I'm sure plenty of us had that one weirdo friend who had a stack of godawful shit like this on old tapes, my high school had an entire group.

thread glows

>>717100629
No problem, anon! Yeah, the "Bosnian guy game over" shot was sourced back in 2019, but I couldn't find any information on the "Chin" shot, which I was super interested in for a while before I gave up on it entirely. Thank you again, anon.

This thread reminds me of when /x/ was alive and not filled with schizo dogshit.
You are a King.

>>717097603
Got a link to the /vr/ thread?

>>717102104
I guess we'll just talk about nothing on /v/ ever because it might be a topic that's loosely interesting to plebeians. We wouldn't want to look like one of those.

>>717102104
I know you browse here dude, just admit it

where did they get the picture of deng xiaoping?

Appreciate it, anons. There is something extremely bizarre and odd about HK97 that really captivates me. Perhaps it's the fact that "digitized pictures" seems like such a "blast from the past" nowadays, especially when they are literal snapshots from a different time. I always try to find the original shots whenever I noticed a digitized photo, mostly because I wonder where that place is or how it looks nowadays.

>>717102084
This inconsistency still boggles me. Despite some stuff being only released in Japan, they will still go for Romanized translations for some reason.

>>717103267
I think it's always interesting finding out the sources for things like this.

>>717103267
Probably because it was born from the anxieties of a HK people who were expecting their entire way of life to change as the CPC was pretty strict at the time which didnt help when Tianamen was just a recent thing.

HK produced a lot of kino in this small timeframe. A sort of last stand middle finger before they got swallowed.
Mainland proved them wrong sort of. I mean they still were going to be authoritarian but they just played the frog in a pot approach rather than rolling in tanks as soon as the Queen gave them the keys to the house.

Its unique to look back on because nothing like it has ever really happened before. Invasions and conquests sure. But a hand over of a free nation to a 1984 state with nothing anyone can do but vent in media.

Plus you add that 90s soul and its kino

there's more than one HappySoft game?

Oh hey, I posted >>>/vr/11914027
As I said there, genuinely interesting learning about weird vidya history like this. Well done

>>717103767
kind of feels like what you might see looking into a timeline where the communists lost the civil war

>>717094870 (OP)
When I first saw the thread title and image, I thought this was going to be about the shot of Jackie Chan from Wheels on Meals, this is much more interesting though.

>>717103162
I think it's just the lighting from the flash photo obscuring it.

>>717105772
Looks more functional than HK97

>>717107189
there would still be a bit of a dark smudge there if it was just the flash

>>717094870 (OP)
Best thread of the year

>>717094870 (OP)
Good find, anon.

>>717094943
christ this is disgusting
we really need to show this kind of stuff in high school history classes to remind people how evil humanity can be

>>717094870 (OP)
That's really fucking rad, good job OP

Good work, Anon

Top quality thread

Bump for this mad lad

>>717094870 (OP)

>>717106265
/vr/ feels a lot different than I remember

>>717116618
it's gotten pretty appalling since gen 6 was added

>>717112075
Fuck off shill, it's just typhus

>>717117135
Yeah it feels like it's more of a weird halfway point now

>>717094870 (OP)
Bump, because why the hell not.

This is interesting, but what is the origin of the Jackie Chan image? I wonder if someone will be able to create an HD version.

>>717119737
it's just Jackie Chan cut out of a scene from Wheels on Meals

>>717094870 (OP)
I think that one time Kurosawa was interviewed, he played dumb about its origins but I don't remember. Amazing find either way, Anon!

>>717117135
>gen 6
so /vr/ allows non-retro games now? why? why is it so hard fpr retarded autists to realize that retro actually MEANS something and isn't just a retarded autistic measure of age?

>>717122128
Yeah, since 2020 I believe. Plus there's all the faggots who keep trying to sneak in gen 7 shit on top of that, as in a noticeable amount of them want to talk about the PSP and 360. Mods don't seem to care anymore, since they leave those threads up. The most active thread in recent times was a meta thread about gen 7.

OP, please focus on actual important shit, like cooking a great meal, meeting an old friend or chatting up a cute coworker.

Your thread is absolutely insane, shizo-tier.

WTF!!!

very sad to see /vr/ slowly turn into /v/ 2 but it was eventually gonna happen under the clueless mod team of this website

Zooms are very desperate to make their gen 7 slop feel like it's up there with the true retro classics, that one thread like last week was generally fucking cancerous and grim that's what all future discussions on that shithole gonna be

Go away.

>>717100654
Speaking of what website is considered the gore website now.

>>717102084
Because it sounds foreign and cool. It's like calling it Registrum Mortis in English.

>Mainland proved them wrong sort of. I mean they still were going to be authoritarian but they just played the frog in a pot approach rather than rolling in tanks as soon as the Queen gave them the keys to the house.
The CCP's original plan was indeed to just assume the absolute power that the Crown's colonial authority had over policymaking in Hong Kong and turn the dial up to 11, quashing any local authority the Cantonese had and looting the city's industry and infrastructure so it could prop up Beijing and Shanghai in its place.

But Governor Chris "Based" Patten (pictured here as the unsung hero of HK97) delegated his power to a democratically elected legislature in Hong Kong just two years before the handover, setting a legal precedent the crypto-Han mongoloids weren't able to overturn due to their agreement with the UK. This, combined with Taiwan's successful transition to fair and free democracy around the same time, was the direct cause of untold seething and coping on the mainland for decades to come.

>>717121534

Yeah, he absolutely did. I went back to that interview. He got interviewed 2 times actually, one in 2015 shortly after the original AVGN episode, and again on camera with the "Ultra Healthy Videogame Nerd", and on both occasions he kinda avoided the question.

Oh please, don't start that kinda stuff here.
