If I was a powerful mage granted immortality against my will, I would also absolutely use the macguffin to finally get my soul back and blow myself up.

Ich gestehe zu meiner Schande, dass ich zum ersten Mal von der Barschel-Affäre gehört habe, als eine Kassette mit einer Tonaufzeichnung seines Todes im von mir als Schüler geguckten Erkan und Stefan Film als MacGuffin diente.

I saw "Kiss Me Deadly" back in a college film class. The atomic 'macguffin' has been copied in both "Repo Man" and "Pulp Fiction."
It's a hard film to find online which is a shame. It's really good.

"The Hand of Darth Vader" was a macguffin in a 1990s kids book series I read, but I think it was the one Luke cut off on the Death Star. That series also had Psychic Whales from Mon Calimari??

My theory is that one of the ships goes down during the fight to the frozen macguffin, and the crashed ship + the frozen waste is the 5th zone, then the plot leads to an Agartha-like final zone, under the macguffin, that explains what the Ascians were or Winterer's are doing.

The mysterious briefcase in Pulp Fiction is a classic example of a MacGuffin, a plot device that drives a story forward, even though its true significance remains unknown. Our latest T-shirt takes a small detail from that iconic briefcase and gives it a fitting new name »

So the macguffin built in The Dark Knight they destroyed because building and keeping it was a clear sign of unhinged and reckless behavior. Got it.

Velkajarru on hyvä tekosyy silloin, kun halutaan tehdä epäsuosittuja leikkauksia. Sitten, kun kuitenkin halutaan ottaa lainaa vaikkapa yritystukien rahoittamiseen, niin sitten selitetään, miten velkajarrun kohdalla pitää käyttää harkintaa ja malttia.

- Reading a fic that involves a converted pony couple got to a pony/dragon/griffon town to find a MacGuffin.
- The fic, much like the rest in the series is trenched in science-fiction speculation, political drama, worldbuilding, and the like.
- Very very serious writings about cartoon horses here.
