What if you had never seen either area before, you stupid dolt!?

Yet you never once expressed you feelings about the show under discussion, which is "Lost".

Good post.

BTW, you know the film, "Krakatoa, East of Java" ? It's actually **West** of Java.

Another own-goal in the stupidity stakes for Hollywood. Hey, but we shouldn't ever lets facts get in the way of a 'good' movie !

Krakatoa is, in fact, west of Java

No one said a goddamned thing about taking ANY fiction seriously, you complete and utterly retarded loon.

I said that a twit like you could not get the show without watching the entire 4 episode first season.

It was a pretty good show.

Another good one was... of course, Farscape.

You're so stupid, you probably liked "Battlefield Earth".

The Forbidden Planet is one of my all time favorite films, but in a hard look at it, it could easily be defines as fairly simplistic, and many things today outdo it by far.

I have several copies in several formats of it. The HD version is the best, by far.

You're not a donkey, you're a goddamned cockroach.

Is that meant to be an excuse for changing geography ?

The IPCC would be proud of your ability to deny facts.

There was obviously spurts of fuel as evidenced by the occasional sputtering that caused it to surge UP in rpm every now and again.

Get a clue, dipshit.

In reality, NO engine of that weight, particularly a turbo-fan, could survive the impact from that altitude, or any altitude above fifty feet, much less 5000. Nor could ANY of the passengers, etc., etc., etc.

You obviously do not know how to watch a fictional tale... at all.

" Do you actually think you could grasp a deep show like "Lexx" "

Care to distance yourself from the above ? Especially the 'deep' bit ?

I'm sure the FAA and NTSB would be delighted to have your expert input in this respect.

Especially when the engine pod is totally detached from the fuselage / wing and there's obviously no fuel lines rmaining. I simply couldn't keep a straight face. Actually it was more of a grimace. Are Americans really so stupid that they accept this kind of nonsence without objection ?

Had he never seen it before, he would not know anything was changed.

You're an idiot. What "fact" did I deny, cockroach?

Thanks for mentioning 'Forbidden Planet'; I sadly only have it on Beta. Indeed, it breaks ground in a very-well executed fashion using the cinematic technology available at the time and its characters are believable IMHO -- also a good script doesn't hurt ;)

Star Trek, for example, owes a great deal to it as many of its core concepts are first realized in the film.

You obviously do not understand what part of the show was deep.

The insect war was over thousands of years prior...

Or so everyone thought. In fact, the insect(s) were still alive.

Like I said, it wasn't "serious", but it was quite deep.

Far beyond a twit like you, cockroach boy.

You have to watch the episode that came later that actually had video of the crash. along with the reason for it.

The wings were literally ripped off the plane, and the plane itself was ripped apart, and the whole mess was being pulled toward the Island.

Viola! No fuel laden wings to cause burning explosive frenzies!

Indeed... In one of the many cycles of airing 'The Prisoner' on PBS here in the States, there was 15 minutes of psycho-social analysis and commentary at the end of each episode, some segments even included Mr. McGoohan who evidently had some control over production and scripts. It was all very heavy, full of cold-war themed allegory and psychiatric theory, existentialism, psychedelic references, etc., etc.

BTW, My spell checker always suggests replacing your handle with 'Eyesore'

Every large passenger jet has a fuel tank *between the wings*. Boeing call it the CWT (centre wing tank). It was the CWT that exploded on TWA800.

Sorry, I know it's only low-level fiction, but I loved "Lost" right from the off. It's just escapism really - a bit frustrating in some episodes where everything changes just as you feel that you've got the measure of it - but the whole trick is just to suspend your belief in science and reality, and enjoy it for what it is, an intriguing bit of fantasy drama. Now Harry Potter. That's a different matter. How could anyone ever believe that a boy and his chums could fly without a Cessna underneath them, or that a huge train could hide in a station, and not be spotted by military satellites that would want to know what it's up to. Ludicrous ...

BTW, I think that 100k RPM is a little fast for a commercial airliner turbofan engine. More like a third to a half of that max at take off.
