Re: ?
There were more action in Aliens(2), but I like both the firs one and the second one, the third well call it the turd. Guess that says it all.
2001 is more like and movie for the weak of hearing. I know they claim there is no sound in space, doesn`t have to put that into a movie.
How do they know there is no sund in space?
It`s like if a tree falls in the woods and no one is around to witness it, does the tree make a sound falling?

Didn't like Bab 5.... anger... rising...
They know there is no sound in space as a scientific fact. Actually, you can'r see starts in space either. They wanted to take them out for 2001, but the studios wouldn't let Kubrick/Clarke go that far

Re: ?
Alien 1 and 2: great. Saw ALien 3 tonight again, it was on TV: so so, nothing special, like Alien 1 but not as good. Haven't seen Resurrection yet.
No sound in space, since there is no oxygen. It's a vacuum out there. Sound is transferred by waves, it's need particles in the air to transfer it. Since space is a vacuum, sound cannot move anywhere. Hence it is silent.
Also, there's no pressure there either. If you step out into space without a pressure suit, you'd explode. Our bodies provide pressure from withing to withstand the pressure from the outside in our atmosphere. So when you'd go out into space, the pressure from the inside is still there but there is nothing to stop it. You can see that happening in "Outland".
As for the stars, I think that depends on where you are. If you look at all the nasa stuff they shot in orbit, there are stars visible. There's a huge sun out there, reflecting it's light off planets and stars.

Re: ?
There is a way of sending signals into space. I mean they talked to the guys on the ex-Mir (splash). But I don't know how that works. It that kind of electrostatic noise what they listen to.

Re: ?
Actually, a lot of the shots you see are starless. Human eyes can't pick out stars, unless you a. look really hard and b. have an atmosphere
Also actually, that whole pressure/exploding thing isn't true, though they won't tell you how they know that because it was dodgy... the body goes into a vicious haemoregging, but it doesn't pop.

Re: ?
Under water is the other way around. When you go very deep, the pressure on the body is stronger than the body can resist. So that would be imploding.

Re: ?
That's right, though you would die long before imploding depth, and after that you tend to float. You'd have to be in The Abyss and open an airlock, or something, for a true implosion. But the whole space thing is more complex than they used to think; Event Horizon is pretty close to how it is.

It's my friends, really. They are all around genius level, and they talk a lot.

Okay, question on topic (yes, I said that). Where do you rank Spidey in your list of superheros ?

Poor Spidey. It's tough as it is for him, with all those goblins and octopi.

Okay, I'm gonna go start a superhero topic in GDF just to keep the mods happy and because I want to pick brains on the subject.
