I began watching I guess is call a concept trailer for movies. I watched several trailers. It was a bit jarring to watch them throw ideas at the wall and hoping something stuck. The range of actors and character looks is a bit to broad for some people.

I was watching this one and suddenly I noticed what the background music was. It’s different but recognizable. Thunder Cats

Now try to keep the name Thor out of your head. Just look at the thumbnail of this video.
Heman: And the Master of the Universe

And finally this one might be a bit of a stretch.

Problem solved and culprit is something that even a lot of Aussies think doesn't happen here, but they're more common than they realise.

The chance discovery of a mammoth 11-kilometre long scar in the earth in Australia’s remote outback sparked intrigue and conspiracy.

The accidental discovery of an 11-kilometre long ‘scar’ carved into dirt and rock in Australia’s remote outback has puzzled scientists since its abrupt emergence two years ago.

A caving enthusiast was exploring the continent from above with Google Earth when he came across the peculiar sight and shared it online, sparking plenty of debate and one or two conspiracy theories.

Now, a team of experts has revealed the cause of the marking, which stretches across the West Australian border into South Australia in the unforgiving Nullarbor.

And it’s not aliens or some top-secret military technology, as a few internet forum-dwellers had theorised.
The presence of unique markings within the formation revealed how it was formed.

“It bears striking patterns called ‘cycloidal marks’, formed by tornado suction vortexes. This suggests the tornado was no ordinary storm but in the strong F2 or F3 category, spinning with destructive winds of more than 200 kilometres an hour.

“The tornado probably lasted between seven and 13 minutes. Features of the scar suggest the whirling wind within the tornado was moving in a clockwise direction.

“We also think the tornado moved from west to east – which is consistent with the direction of a strong cold front in the region at the time.”
Matej Lipar, an adjunct research fellow at Curtin University’s School of Earth and Planetary Sciences, was one of the scientists fascinated by the satellite imagery.

In May, Dr Lipar travelled to the dry, treeless location to see the scar in person.

It lies 20 kilometres north of the Trans-Australian Railway and 90 kilometres east-north-east of Forrest, a former railway settlement,” Dr Lipar wrote in analysis for The Conversation.

“The scar is 11 kilometres long and between 160 and 250 metres wide.”

Dr Lipar and his colleagues compared various satellite imagery of the site over a several-year period to determine that the scar appeared between November 16 and November 18, 2022.
