It be better if it was the British museum.

[-] db2@sopuli.xyz 40 points 9 months ago

The point is to steal things that don't already belong to them.

[-] HikingVet@lemmy.sdf.org 11 points 9 months ago

Nah, the 'reverse' of putting it in a museum is repatriation.

[-] Daerun@lemmy.world 78 points 9 months ago

For those who can't read latin they are saying "Come back!" "That's the Holy Foreskin!".

[-] KreekyBonez@lemm.ee 15 points 9 months ago

lol nice

I just assumed it said "it belongs in a museum"

[-] Daerun@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

That's probably what their lawyers would state they meant to say.

[-] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 40 points 9 months ago

That actually sounds fantastic.

[-] Hegar@kbin.social 33 points 9 months ago

China actually does this - they steal back artifacts looted by colonial powers. There have been many high profile heists of museums where the only items taken were looted Chinese artifacts that the museum refused to return.

[-] MooseBoys@lemmy.world 21 points 9 months ago

Such a great movie - Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker had great chemistry.

[-] Hegar@kbin.social 9 points 9 months ago

Yeah, it's not bad. The bit where Tucker is pretending to be Chinese isn't nearly as awkward as I'd remembered and the fight scene with all the throwing vases and arguing about which dynasty each one is from is pretty funny.

[-] Potatisen@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

I 100% believe you but I want to know more!

Spill the beans

[-] FurtiveFugitive@lemm.ee 33 points 8 months ago

So here we have Internet Guy posting a stolen comic about stolen artifacts. Neat.

Share some credit. http://smbc-comics.com/comic/sanctum

[-] Klear@lemmy.world 8 points 8 months ago

That comic belongs in a museum!

[-] Zerush@lemmy.ml 23 points 8 months ago

This in a British Museum would also be a good topic for a script

[-] papel@lemmyf.uk 7 points 8 months ago

Reminds me of a joke, that the only reason the brits didn't move the pyramids of Giza back to London was because they are too heavy

[-] ComicalMayhem@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago

Wasn't that actually true?

[-] Madison420@lemmy.world 7 points 8 months ago

The sphinx but yes.

I actually love this concept. There's something there

[-] ComicalMayhem@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

Make a post on c/writingprompts!

[-] pucciguccibucci@lemmy.whynotdrs.org 21 points 9 months ago

Jondiana Indes and the Doomple of Temp

[-] Potatisen@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

Jondiana nooooo

[-] n_emoo@lemmy.ca 18 points 9 months ago

Or a reverse Narcos TV show where south american authorities enter and destroy US gun factories.

[-] AdamBomb@lemmy.sdf.org 17 points 9 months ago

I would watch this

[-] leave_it_blank@lemmy.world 13 points 8 months ago

"This belongs in a forgotten cave buried deep in the Amazonian rainforest!"

[-] Ack@lemmy.ca 12 points 9 months ago

Do it with Temple of Doom! I want to see the pope yelling some Latin gibberish and trying to rip indigenous Indy’s heart out of his chest.

[-] Lifebandit666@feddit.uk 4 points 8 months ago

He'd be going in through the butthole

[-] Potatisen@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

Of a young boy-Indy

[-] lurch@sh.itjust.works 9 points 9 months ago
[-] papel@lemmyf.uk 2 points 8 months ago

Pulpy, but I'd go with Tabasco Aztlan

[-] un_aristocrate@jlai.lu 9 points 9 months ago

I would watch that.

[-] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 8 points 9 months ago

Thats... not the opposite of Indiana Jones tho...

[-] TheAndrewBrown@lemm.ee 6 points 9 months ago

Yeah literally the first and the third movie are about stealing Christian holy relics, this is just Indiana Jones with a lead of South American descent

[-] neptune@dmv.social 8 points 9 months ago

Wasn't this literally the plot of Black Panther?

[-] Kind@lemm.ee 7 points 8 months ago

Where the bad guys are the CIA or FBI and they are being hunted down for overthrowing a government, there'd be a world of different locations and endless sequels.

[-] Masimatutu@lemm.ee 6 points 9 months ago

The black, four-bladed propeller in a white circle on a red wing looks mildly suspicious...

[-] Sotuanduso@lemm.ee 5 points 9 months ago

Sounds about as fun as Indiana Jones, as long as it's done for fun and not just to make a statement.

[-] Potatisen@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

For sure! it's entertainment not politics.

[-] danwardvs@sh.itjust.works 4 points 9 months ago
[-] Sharkwellington@lemmy.one 7 points 9 months ago

Alright I'm done with lemmy for a bit

[-] Potatisen@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

Why wouldn't he be? R-rated movie right?
