Sequels are so last year.

Yo dawg, I heard you liked sharks ...

What's interesting about this is what it tells us about her future spiritual development. We know she started out Catholic and got into kabbalah in 1997. If she's reached the S's now, then I predict that we'll see her make the switch to Zoroastrianism some time around 2028.

I don't know if it's an "everybody in the world dies" candidate, but at the end of "Alien Resurrection", the protagonists set the USM Auriga on a collision course with Earth. You can play around with the impact calculator [impact.ese.ic.ac.uk] to try to decide what happens when a 4,000m-long spaceship impacts, but if…

Hmm, curious scientists explore mysterious area untouched since dawn of time ... I think I've seen this movie. Maybe more than once. If I remember correctly, this kind of thing never ends well.

If he wanted glowing eyes that let him see in the dark, he should have followed the approved procedure: kill a few people, get sent to a slam where they tell him he'll never see daylight again, dig up a doctor, and pay him 20 menthol Kools to do a surgical shine job on his eyeballs.

The Big Foreplay.

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away ... I'm sorry, did I say a long time ago? That is, it seemed like a long time ago, but that was before I went back in time, which I guess makes it an even longer time ago, except that I'm really from the future and ... what? I don't know. My future, your future, Luke…

"I'm not a lousy kisser, it's this damned lag!"

We already have a device for transforming our inner thoughts into audible sentences. They call it "alcohol".

"I love the smell of Greek fire in the morning ... The smell ... you know, that crude-oil smell ... Smelled like ... victory."

Reminds me of a sign I once saw in the Auvergne, where they take the sheep up into the mountain pastures in late spring and then bring them down in the autumn. The sign was attached to a gate by the side of the road and said (loosely translated) "Before parking in front of this gate, please consider what ten thousand…

If you know the frequency of the laser used to 'paint' the target, could you just get your own lasers and use them to designate a few dozen other objects as alternatives?

"Ladies and gentlemen, the captain has turned on the 'Fasten Seat Belt' sign, so please ensure that your sinister haunted hand luggage is safely stowed under the seat in front of you. If you are seated next to an exit, you should be aware that in the event of an emergency you may be called on to be sucked out of the…

An untestable theory about the origin of life? Ooh, I think we've seen a couple of those already. Round here we mostly call them "religions".

You might also look at Snap'n'Drag from Yellow Mug Software: [www.yellowmug.com] It's free (although there's some unobtrusive in-app advertising for their other products).

I assume that Dr de Grey is familiar with the story of Tithonus. [en.wikipedia.org]

So, an Assyrian, a Sumerian, and a Hittite walk into a bar ...

It's been claimed that St-Exupery's identity bracelet has been found, along with the wreckage of what may have been his plane. But hey, he doesn't need any identity bracelets where he's going (presumably, Asteroid B-612).

What I took away from that was:
