See my response to Grendel. The time has already passed and it IS a reality.

The demon from LEGEND.

They are though... My point is that if a small city like the adjacent one (with a particularly sparse population) even HAS drones and the authorization to use them - that another county that actually has operators is almost certainly already using them.

I think that flavor (or taste) plays only a small part in the tomato eating experience. Texture would seem to be paramount here - and the juicier tomatoes also tend to have more flavor vs. what almost equates to "canning tomatoes" that we are served at most fast food restaurants. These tomatoes are terribly firm and…

Hello Pot, Meet Kettle. Nothing like hypocrisy on nice sunny Friday afternoon.

they are definitely here. I believe that a few counties over they have 3 UAVs (sherrifs dept. i think) that they have had for years, but havent really started to operate yet (and we are talking about rural SE here).

Comparing space exploration to something as trivial as traveling to France - is frankly inane - and that was the silly argument you clearly arent equipped to defend (I dont really know anyone that could defend that argument).

And you are an expert? Do not make silly arguments if you arent willing to defend them.

We dont set these budgets in a vacuum. Congress sets most of these things - and supporting NASA over the million other underfunded programs is politically untenable - regardless of its value to humanity.

Thats just a really feeble-minded false equivalency. Paris cant be "explored" in the sense we are talking about - because we have already been there - and still are there. Exploration implies "new frontiers" - and like he said it much more cost-effective to send them vs. somewhat pointless manned spacecraft (as they…

Would it not seem petty for him to say Americans (especially since this project is much more ambitious than our accomplishment)?

Huh? Captain America and Thor were both just okay (according to critic "consensus") and neither pulled nearly the numbers of Avengers - and IMO those movies could have helped DISSUADE me from seeing it (as i thought both were pretty meh). Also, NONE of the Hulk movies ever seemed to be particularly successful (though…

I guess it depends on where you live? There werent any IMAX screenings close to here - though we do have an "IMAX" theatre (it's over 30 years old and unlike any other IMAX I have been to), but it wasnt showing even there. I think that your perspective must be a bit skewed, because there are LOTS and LOTS of places…

Clearly your opinion is representative of everyone. I thought I liked 3D in some cases before I read your post, but now I know how to think. Thanks!

Do they have solid numbers of 3D though? My guess is that a lot of people ended up going to the 3D showings early on, just because 2D showings were likely sold out - and people wanted to see it anyway. No one I know had any desire to see the 3D showing (out of the 12 or so I talked to that werent in the group of 10 I…

Ancient actually has a SPECIFIC meaning when used in any sort of historic context and not common parlance. It covers the period of early humans up through the Early Middle Ages.

I prefer the Obama with bunnies... His head is nearly the size of his torso.

I think Id rather be able to suspend my disbelief and have the experience that you had. Sadly, I cant do it. I think that this same sort of problem plagues almost all movies/genres.

Really? I never got that at all. You have to look to GRRM and the like to have well developed protagonists that may actually die. Its all but a foregone conclusion that anything PIXAR/DW etc. is going to have a happy ending. Even post-apocalyptic WALL-E was all puppy dogs and rainbows at the end.

You are only succeeding in making it sound more depressing.
