Much more serious.

It's pretty good. The pacing is slower than modern shows though.
True! There are a couple of ways we could take the conversation. We could say, “ Well, Star Wars and who knows what tech they have and they have shields and who know what that would do and what about Midi-chlorians?” or we could go down the factual physics road and realize that pretty much none of the ships would…

Space Battleship Yamato (Starblazers). Basically what it says on the can. A battleship. In space. I LOVED this cartoon when I was a kid, but even I acknowledge that it makes no sense to convert a sunken WWII battleship into an interstellar spacecraft.
They could have just flown the fighters (A, B, X) as they are capable of handling the cold of interstellar space. Looking at the new trailers they are apparently maneuverable enough as well.

Infinite Improbability Drive. Like much of the Hitchhikers Guide it was never intended for it to make sense.
So, what does Skynet do when it wins? Does it learn to knit? Does it restore the world? Does it head to space to explore? I guess its main goals are to protect the planet and itself, but what then?
It's just a goofy thing in a goofy part of town. Largely harmless and a little weird. Calling Seattle devoid of points of interest is pretty funny though.
Rainier.
NAS Whidbey certainly has one of the most diverse operations areas. Within 100 miles there is ocean, rain forest, mountains, glaciers and desert. The Air Station is a good neighbor to the folks on the island as well.
Yep. I remember watching Audi pitstops when McNish would jump out and, really, any of hist teammates got in. McNish had a thick insert!

Indycar uses a similar, but slightly more involved, process for their seats. There was a detailed How It’s Made done with them a few years ago...
We have a Mini Cooper and two kids. When I only have one kid with me I often load them through the hatch. I guess I will take the risk of getting the po-po called on me.
I pretty much agree with your take. The one thing that killed Prometheus for me was the fact that the Aliens were custom made to kill humans. It was a much more interesting notion to me that they were just out there and we don’t know why. They are a force of nature with their own agenda. Having them targeted at…
I grew up in Maple Valley, WA, one town over from SIR. When the NHRA was in town we could hear the top fuel cars from our house. We were 10-15 miles away. It was glorious. Saw my first pro drag race there. My folks vollenteered there in the 70s.
They have the B-36 as well.
It always seemed to me that Vader’s gear required a good bit of maintenance to keep him “healthy”. I wounder how long he could go before too many systems failed and he started to struggle.
It is interesting to compare this helmet with Vader’s. Arth had the benefit of the finest fabricators and medical facilities in the empire and his gear was all glossy and clean all the time. Orderly in a way that mirrored his and the emperor’s desire to bring control to the Galaxy. This is rough and cobbled together…
