Come talk to me when you’re dealing with 26mm. I can’t stand it when 28mm people think they’re hot shit.

The way they’ve bludgeoned us the past two movies, I swear I’d pay full price at the cinema every day for a week (or more) just to see a movie of nothing but Superman doing good deeds and smiling. Kitties, airplanes, subs, nuclear reactors, puppies, a kid having a bad day, fishing boats, coal mines, landslides, saving…

This is a reboot. And you’re still getting the sequel no one asked for in Dude-Busters 3.

Welcome to time travel! Strap in and hold on to your teeth!

When I lived in Norway growing up the school took us on a field trip to a remote Molybdenum mine for a couple of days. We had a blast! The mine itself was neat and was apparently a target for German air raids back in World War II if I remember right, and they’d wanted to seize it in order to build weapons. Part of the…

The Enterprise easily outclasses a Star Destroyer because of its advanced shielding technology and superior maneuverability and again as Adam Savage points out The Enterprise’s sheer power output puts anything the Empire has in its arsenal to shame.

Enterprise beams the Star Destroyers bridge and engineering crew into its brig and then dismantles the Star Destroyer at its leasure. Boom. Done.

Generally, Mission Control will advise you to return to your ship before that happens

Oi Mate, as an Australian I don't want come here and read your filthy lies, Tony Abbot is nowhere near as honest, intelligent and charismatic as The Humungus.

That is an interesting concept I would like to see, but it's not Inspector Gadget. Inspector Gadget is a silly show with a dumb protagonist and his waaaaay more competent sidekicks (whom he doesn't know he has). Inspector Gadget IS and always WAS for kids. To take that as a negative and demand it be made "adult" feels…

Masterchief 117 provided this bit of fan fiction to my post yesterday. It kind of sums it up. I assume though that this is the Star Trek 6 crew, due to their professionalism. I can't say how well the Abrams crew would do.

That is not Zathras. That is Zathras.

If their restraints were too tight they couldn't get the funk out.

I mean, the killjoy answer is because it's a visual shorthand for 'Space battles are happening and humans are being injured the DRAMA!' but let's be honest: Starfleet's safety record is horrible in literally every way. Anything vaguely anamolous event threatens key systems at the drop of the hat, the ship holodeck…

I have a feeling Suicide Squad will surprisingly turn out to be the best movie out of the upcoming DC/Marvel ones.

I got some liquid Owlsley Original from an old hippie at a Pagan gathering. I dropped it with some friends on the Oregon Coast the night of a spectacular plankton bloom. The breakers were glowing bright blue, and the wet sand under our feet sparkled like stars. There were fractal rainbow clouds around the full moon,…

Ugh, I still remember how staggeringly ill I got when I made tea from morning glory seeds, many years ago. Dry heaves for hours on end.

Nah, you just need to come to Australia. Still incredibly popular here.

That's not a vampire coffin. It's obviously a gravesite of a fallen Ice Warrior. Everyone knows that Mars is populated by Ice Warriors.
