This is the German poster for the Taiwanese film The Super Riders V3 (1975).
There were three Super Riders films produced by Tong Hsing Company Limited - The Super Riders V3, The Five of Super Riders (1976), and The Super Riders Against the Devils (1976).
As a precursor to what Saban would do to make the Power Rangers series more than 15 years later, Tong Hsing reused action sequences from various Kamen Rider series and films, and rented costumes and sets from Toei to film Taiwanese actors act out the rest of the story.
I've not seen either version of this film (the German/European cut is shorter reportedly even crazier), so I don't know if there really is a giant gorilla Kamen Rider running around loose.
The moment Mike Myers needs the money we can move forward with my Austin Powers vs the Evil Dead movie that exists solely so Austin and Ash can say "Groovy" back and forth at each other.
Eventually Ash says "Shagadelic" while pumping a shotgun. This is the emotional climax of the movie.
Post credits we tease Mike Myers vs Michael Myers from Halloween. We absolutely do not follow through with that tease in another movie.
In 2016, I have made a post about how in Super Mario Galaxy, whenever Mario sinks into a swamp, his head shrinks to allow his arm and hand to reach out of the swamp without his head being in the way. Normally, this cannot be seen in-game as it occurs below the surface, and requires external tools to move the game's camera.
If Mario sinks into the swamp after hitting the edge of a platform in the manner shown in the footage, a desync of the animation will occur whereby it will activate while Mario is still almost completely visible. This allows the shrinking of his head to be seen in-game.

Taras Shevchenko and Ira Aldridge by Heorhiy Melikhov, 1963
Famous Ukrainian poet and artist Taras Shevchenko befriended the African-American Shakespearean actor Ira Aldridge, while the latter was on tour to the Russian Empire in 1858. Shevchenko did his portrait in pastel. It is recounted that the two men got along very well. While posing for the portrait, Aldridge sang African-American songs to Shevchenko and in return, the artist taught him Ukrainian songs.
"Trina Robbins had spent much of the seventies working in underground comix with a distinct feminist bent, including co-founding the seminal Wimmin's Comix. However she had fond memories of the girl comics she had bought growing up, particularly Timely Comics' titles Millie the Model and Patsy and Hedy, and realized the lack of similar titles meant there was nothing to inspire future female creators. When she heard that Marvel Comics (the present-day incarnation of Timely) were planning Star Comics to reach younger readers, Robbins approached the company with a pitch for a girls' comic. Inspired by Robbins' love of Bill Woggon's Katy Keene, the series also included paper dolls (a recurring feature of Robbins' comics) and audience interaction via reader-submitted outfit designs. Robbins would credit Marvel editor-in-chief Jim Shooter's early career work on Millie the Model as a factor in the series getting the green light.
"She brainstormed the concept with Marvel executive editor Tom DeFalco, who suggested the character be something other than an objectified model. Robbins heartily agreed, devising a storyline that would see the lead, then under the working name of 'Kristy' become a soap actress. She hoped the characters would be an "upgrade" on Archie Comics characters such as Betty Cooper and Veronica Lodge, noting "All Betty and Veronica do is fight over Archie... the girls [in Misty] all have ambitions in life" and noted she purposefully avoided the leading character being part of a nuclear family "because this is 1984". Robbins also said she was "blatantly" aiming for female readers "because girls don't have anything to read". A further link to the Timely books was created by reviving Millie herself as Misty's aunt. Misty would be Robbins' first work for a major comic publisher and she would later describe it as "her calling".
"The first issue ended with a letter from 'Misty', accompanied by a drawing of the character wearing a barrel, appealing for readers to send in their own designs. In the meantime, Robbins encouraged other comics figures she knew to submit designs while she awaited reader submissions, leading to contributions from Barb Rausch, Mike Madrid, Dori Seda, Michael Goldberg, Steve Leialoha, Sharon Rudahl, Gilbert Hernandez, Lori Walls, Jackie Estrada, Terry Beatty, Martha Thomases - and Robbins' daughter Casey, while Mike Mignola contributed raccoons to the third issue."
I love this little feller! As a hoosier, one of the worst things about my state is the lack of cryptids. Here in Indiana we really only have the "Beast of Busco" which is an unusually large turtle (in a place where we do have rare-but-real fairly large alligator snapping turtles) and "bears". We don't have bears in Indiana but people will still try to blame things on them.
