All things NASA & SpaceX. Past, Present & Future.
Dynaman replied to 505thAirborne's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Too many to list. The basic idea of making a spaceship look like an airplane being core among them. Reusable is great in theory but it turned out to be anything but. Engineering is good thing to bring up, the amount of engineering required to get the shuttle into space and back down was never worth it and never paid off. We would have been better enhancing basic designs that already existed - the proof of that shows up in the latest spaceship designs being based off of the old capsule on top of a rocket design. -

The Shuttle was a terrible design that never lived up to what it was designed to do. There is a need for a "space truck" and general utility space vehicle but it is not going to look anything like a plane any time soon. -
Star Wars Rogue Squadron, in theaters TBA

Not all bad - at least in the sequel era there is nothing to mess up.- 115 replies

Depending on the definition of "hit" most of them will not. With luck most of them will be decent shows but a hit in TV (any TV) is rare. The budgets for these are not going to be cheap either. This is the best way (IMHO) or expanding the SW universe though - less risk than doing it through big budget movies (we will see about the Rogue Squadron budget but a planned direct to streaming show will probably not have a screen release budget) and whatever works can get a film treatment.

I just watched the Star Wars Holiday Special for the year (Rifftrax version)... Good looking batch of upcoming content.

Brutal!

The theater most likely lost money that day. Even with the inflated rates for food and assuming the manager is an owner paying the employee and the movie license fee more then made up for the revenue you provided. Not to mention heating or AC, electricity, etc... EDIT - Disney had a great little line in the financials when the parks first reopened. They said it was "revenue positive" and some thought that meant the parks were making money. Nobody knows for sure (but the Bobs and the accountants) but it most likely meant Disney was losing less money with the parks being open then it was losing with them being closed. Which might be the case for a theater that is open but not making a profit too.

THAT might be the saving grace of entertainment out of the home. Spending all day at home working is the best advertisement for getting the heck out of the home to relax (sometimes). Though in case of my wife and I it is going out to eat (not done that since March now) though for others it will be going out to a movie.
-
I'm not a big movie guy - much rather watch most of them at home. It is still up in the air what will happen, the movie theater, video rental(*), purchase revenue model is not one movie makers are going to give up willingly. The only thing to be seen is if the pandemic has changed viewing habits for enough people to decide that going to the theater is optional. (*) - Physical or electronic.

My wife and I just started watching "The Queen's Gambit". First two episodes are excellent and as such shows are at their best it is about much more than chess.

Thank you for the memories. Rest in Peace.

They still never killed off (permanently) what amounted to the main caste - Sansa, Aria, the younger brother, and Snow.

Perfect for a TV show. Private newbie and LT doofus can get bumped off each week while the main cast goes happily on. Aliens level carnage would be a problem for a TV show.

The mere fact that a had the term "bug hunt" to describe their mission shows they had similar things happen before.
-
good stuff but it is more a case of having 5000 different plot idea and saying "all of them!"

I said it before and I'll say it again (and again). Just because the prop department re-used a piece of a prop from another film is NO reason to mash two separate universes together. Aliens and Predators together is comic book level lame.
-
All the Predator movies were dumb, even the first one, but the first one was awesome dumb while all the rest were terrible dumb. Predators was at least watchable I have to admit but the star in that one was not convincing.

Even kids shows deserve better CGI then that.

From the trailer it is hard to figure out who the Stars are - Tom and Jerry or her legs... On a more serious note they messed up Tom's scream and that is unforgivable.
