Yeah, just to make sure you didn't forget how to post pics!

When you fill your car with refined oil remember that it has been paid for with blood and guts, some from your own countrymen, most not.

Nice discovery.
Hmmm, add some weight to one of the caps. Put a small parachute into the film canister. Connect the para to the weighted cap. Add paper fins that are flexible enough to be held against the film can when it is in the barrel but spring out when out of the barrel.
Launch heavy end first. Most of the energy is in the weighted nose. Air drag on the fins pulls the film canister back from the nose and deploys the chute.
