    Wait, where did the helicopter come from? Where did it go? (Other than "away from this movie")

    It took me a moment to figure out that the actor who pulls the woman away from the alien is a young John Noble, who plays Walter Bishop on Fringe.

    He just can't stay away from the wierd...

    So Kodos is male and lays eggs. What role does Kang play in all this?

    What man hasn't wanted to hold a love interest close against his be-hazard-suited chest and rumble 'It's finished' or 'its over now'?

    Also, note to self, never make my already bullseye target-shaped weak spot glow, no matter how much the chicks seem to dig it. #alien

    All that moaning and groaning after Kodos got shot in the eye actually made me feel bad for it. Stupid humans.

    Nice explody chest, though.

    In Kent Ohio there is a restaurant at the corner of SR 59 and SR 261 that has an X-wing in the parking lot. Covet, Covet, Covet.

    @ImeldaEbonifly: I can do one better. I grew up in a small town in TN that just happened to have an aerospace industry there that supported Arnold Engineering & Development Center (AEDC), an Air Force facility. One of the civilian businesses that was located in town, MicroCraft Inc., built wind-tunnel models and other test rigs. One year, the owner commissioned his crew to build his son an X-wing fighter in about 3/4 scale. It's big enough for an elementary-school kid to live out some major fantasies; had some working lights (laser cannon tips included) and was on a wheeled rig so they could pull it in the town parades. Many, many years later, the same company built the fastest air-breathing (Mach 9.8) aircraft ever flown, the X-43A.

    What about the many, many instances of nerdware from The Big Bang Theory? Leonard Nimoy's napkin? The actual time machine from the movie The Time Machine? Leonard's original Battlestar Galactica flight suit?

    I remember there was a kick-ass van in my neighborhood (a small commuinity) that had a van with an xwing flying around the death star painted on it. I eventually got to know the family that owned it, but after that sweet van disappeared. I wish I knew what it looked like on the inside. somehow, I doubt it met my fantasies.

    Anyone who owns a DeLorean. If given the chance, we'd all buy one. I've dreamt of getting one and somehow converting it to a hybrid - it would be nerd on so many levels.

    @Matthew Abel: Reading about DeLorean is very depressing. About what it's supposed to be, what a big failure it is, and what it did to John deLorean's life. He used to be a respected GM engineer. The DeLorean turned him into a failed drug trafficker.
