- gorjusborg 2y agoIt's very simple, but not obvious at first. You enter the age you expect to live, your birthdate, and a movie (pick something you are very familiar with). Upon submission, a single frame of the movie is shown representing today in your life if the runtime of the movie spanned your entire predicted lifespan.
- eej71 2y agoBy entering your birthdate and your expected life span, it projects how far you are into your life by display an image from a movie at that same point as you are at your life today. So if you are 50% through your life, it will pick the 50% point of a movie. Ideally its a movie you know very well otherwise it won't make as much sense.
- copperx 2y agoIs the credits section included in the frames? I think it would be fitting, but a bit hard to discern.
- gorjusborg 2y agoI love this. I'll admit that it wasn't immediately obvious what it was, but after filling in the form and picking a movie I was very familiar with, it really gave an idea of 'where in the movie' I currently am. Kudos to whoever created it. Very creative and interesting.
- oatsandsugar 2y agoI'm at a very explosive part of Akira in my life. Feels right.
- KineticLensman 2y agoI got Mark Watney putting on a space suit
- _ZeD_ 2y ago> You are 101.38% through A Charlie Brown Christmas (1965). well, that's a percentage!
- SebFender 2y agoNo "The Matrix" no deal. This is a great way to harvest birthdays.
- ErikAugust 2y agoI know them all. I'll sell you the list.
- dlcarrier 2y agoI fuzzed mine a little, but the end result is only off by a few seconds.
- Amorymeltzer 2y agoFun! Amusing little occurrence: playing around with different dates and movies, I got one where the still (from Love Actually) was of a different movie the characters were watching in-universe (Titanic).
- dfex 2y agoI've just arrived at the walk-off scene in Zoolander and have a still frame of Derek Zoolander's crotch to measure my life's progress. Sounds about right.
