Seriously, Id rather stare mindlessly at the screen through an entire commercial break than punish my brain with those ridiculous montages. Its almost like theyre daring viewers to change the channel.
Was that little bit at the end supposed to be the memorial service? (If so, thats pretty hypocritical that they try to make it seem like everybody liked this guy and yet nobody could be bothered to show up, even under terrible circumstances)
It seems like the showrunners dont really understand the difference between 'flawed characters' and straight up bad people. Leaving their prisoners on that planet, condemning them to almost certain prolonged death is just straight up cowardly and amoral. Im having a hard time seeing the appeal in watching that.
Here's betting Lou Diamond Phillips returns outta nowhere to save the Destiny's ass with the little aliens like some twisted form of "Darby O'Gill and the Little People"

This series is like a big cocktease... You keep expecting something cool to happen, but nothing ever does. Dont wanna spoil it, but as soon as it starts looking like it might finally start to pay off, it just ends
Even rap videos have some payoff at the end...

@tetracycloide: You beat me to posting the link!
Most people dont realize that Super Troopers really was groundbreaking use of technology in cinematography...
@Dr Emilio Lizardo: I dont disagree with you, but I think its a stretch to reference "Mythbusters" as a scientific source...
Nice... Whats the name of the song in the trailer?
@nutbastard: "The bends" (or decompression sickness) is a separate, but similar reaction that occurs during rapid depressurization. The bends is a result of nitrogen bubbles forming in the blood due to the expansion of gases in the body at lower pressures. Conversely, ebullism is a process in which the blood begins to boil - from low pressure rather than heat. Liquids will have much lower boiling points when pressure on them is reduced.
To illustrate: the boiling temperature of water at sea level is 100°C (212°F), however, at an altitude of 63,000 ft, water boils at 37°C (98.6°F) - obviously the same temperature as human body. The result is that gas bubbles begin to form in a human body as they do in a pot of water on the stove.
Ebullism (the formation of gas bubbles in the blood at low pressure) or Hypoxia (deprivation of 02 in the blood) are generally given to be the most immediate and fatal reactions to exposure to vacuum. Because of this, in a sudden exposure to a vacuum, a human will have about 9-15 seconds before loss of consciousess.
@GeneJacket: Absolute zero is 0 Kelvin (−273.15°C). The average temperature of space is usually given as 2.725 Kelvin (−270.00°C, or −455.00°F ). This is a rough average as temperature can vary significantly between various regions of space.
So, in the future, apparently General Zod becomes the cyborg leader of a rebellion...
This screams of some sorta "Ender's Game" scenario where a bunch of punk-ass little aliens are standing behind a battleship board playing against the modern day Fred Savage replacement... only to find out the game... IS FOR REAL!! #battleship
@psychiccheese: Lick a doorknob and get a healthy immune system... Lick a movie theater seat and become Wolverine... #kissing
@RollsRoyceRevenge: Im guessing your comment about the novel being 'unrealistic' is based on your real-world experiences in a post-apocalyptic world?...
I actually had to study this book for a literature class at university last year. (And btw. the prose styling is completely intentional.) The book is not meant to be depressing. Bleak and sad, sure, but to accuse it of being depressing - or failing in that regard - is to completely miss the thrust of the story. The world is ruined and dying. Humanity is probably very close it its expiration date. Faced with an overwhelming sense of the mortality of all things, the father is determined above all else that his son will live whatever life he has knowing what it means to be Human, regardless of the impositions of the remaining world. #theroad
Kung fu grip would be awesome... #robothand
@ThisDudeRufus: Stephen Hawking should have guys playing synthesizers when he speaks. Every conversation would sound like an 80's song! #scientistautotune
Listening to these guys speak, you cant help but think, maybe theres still hope for Humanity yet. #scientistautotune
I love how Paul Jones sent the other guy out to touch to pseudo-ufo... "You go first, Im suuure its safe. Ill stay back here with the uh camera and umm the car."
Looks like something L Ron Hubbard would have had on his basement wall...
This has Randal Graves written all over it...
150,000 years ago the cylons were the original creators of the Marx brothers' Mirror Scene.
