    Yeah, but if you had bought starfield at full retail price there’s a pretty good chance you’d have regrets about it.

    I absolutely don’t mind spending a couple bucks a month to try a bunch of games. If there’s something I like and want to play a lot, I’ll eventually buy it.











  • Not just angular momentum. She flew hundreds of miles and drastically changed orbit in an MMU. And when George Clooney died there was nothing pulling him away from the space station. The movie is called gravity, but they weren’t following the basic rules of how things work when there’s no gravity.

    It would be like someone hopping on a child’s scooter and chasing down a bullet train three states away, or having a character randomly able to fly. If you’re going to break the basic rules of how the universe works, you have to provide an explanation. If the explanation is magic, you have to have things that are magic and non-magic, and a system of how magic works. This is as much hard science fiction as the Fast and Furious movies.

    I don’t even care about the ghost, people hallucinate.

    My only nit pick about the Martian is that there isn’t enough atmosphere on Mars to cause the kinds of winds they show. Still a solid movie though.


  • The part that had me screaming at the TV was where George clooney’s character and Sandra Bullock’s character were tethered together. There are attached to the space station via straps. George Clooney releases the clip and immediately goes flying off into space. There’s no spinning, nothing at all pulling him away. If he unclipped, he would just hang there.

    I’m not trying to be a stickler here, but if you’re making a movie about space following the basic details of how things move around in space is kind of important.
