k The Aberration of Starlight is the name of my next capital-class warship.

ahhahahhahah that was pure evil!

Back in the early 70's my father made a control board and display panel connected by about 20 feet of bound electrical cables for my brother and I. No theming, no labeling - Our imaginations did that. Just lights, switches, potentiometers, buzzers, timers and some mechanical gadgetry that just made cool noises. …

Look, I hate to break it to you, but its high time Max considered going with a hybrid.

Miller's original plan was to shoot Fury Road and a second Max movie, subtitled Furiosa, back-to-back;

I know! That was such a tease.

I was skeptical, but am now excited thanks to the Comic Con trailer. That being said, it breaks my heart to see the last of the V8's rolling into oblivion like that.

Oh my glob...

Looks to be influenced by Road Warrior, which can only be a good thing.

I know, I know... I've had some sincerely shitty holiday seasons, but absolutely nothing as bad as the one he had.

Most film pyrotechnics are designed for film and safety. A lot of sound and fury but intended to be non-lethal, non-injuring at fair range and with normal precautions.

I actually (then and now) thought that the first season was awful. It vastly improved in later series and peaked somewhere around the forth/fifth series IIRC, before going downhill when one of the writers left and the budget got greater (to its detriment). But yeah, first series straight-out didn't work for me; glad I…

Did the title always do that thing with the Horseman's missing head where the missing "o" is? Because that is HILARIOUS. It is a perfect synecdoche for the show's gleeful sense of the absurd. Love it to bits.

Yeah, that must be it— the Moon is caught in the Earth's gravity, & is tidally locked, right? So that is like, the end point— all of that gravitation math is (more or less, for our purposes) static? Which is how...Lagrange points can happen? ARGH. I need a astrophysicist buddy.

Red Dwarf was an amazing show.
