Opinion Sack Hinkley 9 - I Am Become Donuts, Destroyer Of Ports

[MrMeaner]

Yikes. That Oppenheimer theme really is something. Aside from the fairly obvious cultural insensitivity and moral ambiguity of the whole thing, is the idea that we’re standing on the shoulders of giants and this is a collective push encompassing the last 4 years really all that motivating? I’d be going with the opposite. Previous groups have failed. Yes. But not this group. Know it’s up to each and every one of you to be accountable. * whatever has come before.

That sort of thing.

You can just imagine if those involved in the Manhattan Project had watched their first attempt at the bomb wipe the whole state of Nevada off the map and then say they wouldn't have changed a thing.

they really are obsessed with bigfooty

 

[Duck Farmer]

If Hinkley was in charge of the Manhattan Project:

"Now's not the time to be asking why it fizzed out. It's a tough war and somebody had to lose."

Think I preferred it when footballers referred to cliched drivel like The Shawshank Redemption.

I wouldn't be surprised if they blamed us if they lose in straight sets.

Thundercloud will be the first to blame us. All that negative energy shit .

Holy shit he's referencing me!!!!!

Response incoming...

I refuse to accept that Ken could sit through Oppenheimer without falling asleep or complaining that there isn't enough Jap death in his ww2 movie.

 

[EskimoPAFC]

Its actually pretty hard to top that in terms of the worst possible thing you could say on the eve of finals.

A lot of preparation went in to the German invasion of Poland?

That probably beats it out?

 

[1954]

References to the atom bomb is beyond cringeworthy in any context, let alone for a sporting contest.
What mass extermination BS will they come up with for 2024, comparisons to Atilla the Hun, and for 2025 Genkis Khan and the mongols?

 

[Burningleviathan]

I mean, I get Barbenheimer dominated the popular culture there for a while and our PR team is trying to ride that wave.
The issue is not only are they a few weeks late for that, they have done it in the worst possible way. We have the least creative people in the country.

 

[Madas]

Could you say that Oppenheimer is a fairly average movie that went on way too long , kind of like Hinkley?

 

[TeeKray]

It's not even the kind of theme that would sound good if revealed in retrospect after actually winning the thing.

It'd be like 'um, ok ... :/'

 

[Launchpad McQuack]

Thread name more relevant than ever.

So the guy who used to 'sit in the crowd with 15000 people' forgot what year it was.

In 2013 our home crowd avg was 27k and we made finals you funkstick.

 

[JimmyBC]

Should take some home town inspiration really like a quick kill and stick in the freezer in a funny little house.

Wines really should never have a microphone near his face

We are gonna blow these guys........uh......away!

Hope everyone has their welders masks ready for saturday night

They could have a theme based around two girls, one premiership cup and if they won the flag no one would give a shit.

 

[DaTBird187]

Ken has done a pretty good job of making the supporters feel like occupants of Nanjing when the Japanese came through. Maybe that's what the WWII references are about.

Yikes. That’s a bit extreme. I don’t know of any of my fellow supporters who’ve been r*ped by a bayonet.

Its a metaphorical bayonet though

 

[EskimoPAFC]

I think we tried to use this theme but Collingwood blocked it because they said we couldn't copy them.

 

[Doctor Feel]

lol inb4 we get annihilated and the explosion/a-bomb gifs and memes go wall to wall

And surrealism that wasn't actually surrealism.
