While I’m still burning that SNW introduced the first main cast person with disability and killed them off just to lean on the crutch of development-by-death-of-mentor for Uhura, I’m super happy that Bruce Horak is now being regularly cast in guest star and recurring television roles in Canada.
It’s a long way from a Star Trek stint being a career-limiting choice as it was viewed in the past.
I strongly suspect all solutions will either be invalid, or be limited to the speed of light.
The universe seems to have a lot of weird quirks (the speed of light being 1) what they have in common is that they make time paradoxes impossible. This points to some deeper physics causing these disparate effects. Anything travelling faster than C can be configured as a time machine, and so create paradoxes.
I love it when actors have a real passion for the subject matter they’re portraying. Tom Hanks was another one. After Apollo 13 and Saving Private Ryan he produced From the Earth to the Moon and Band of Brothers to expand on the subject matter.
I always wondered why spacecraft couldn’t be wrapped in magnetic coils (with the pressurized volume like the center of a solenoid) to duplicate the effects of Earth’s magnetic field. Looks like it is possible but was not practical until recently.
“It’s on the lower end of what we would expect,” said Jamey Szalay, a plasma physicist at Princeton University who led the study. But “it’s not totally prohibitive” for habitability, he added. … “We don’t really know how much oxygen you need to make life,” she said. “So the fact that it’s lower than some earlier, wishful-thinking estimates is not such a problem.”
Stewart, who spent 16 years at the show, the majority of them Emmy-winning, will be heavily involved as an executive producer on the other nights as well.
But yeah we’ll see - they are offering him a ton of work that just isn’t worth it, but if he is willing…
If it’s the TV edit, it will be nearly 3 hours log and have a dreadful illustrated still art at the beging talking about the Butlerian Jihad for 20 minutes. It’s awful and got the Alan Smithee treatment by the director (for very good reason). The TV edit is a hard watch.
The theatrical release is awesome and 2 and a half hours long. Princess Irulan opens with a bizarre monologue that fades her in and out. The movie is underrated because it’s clearly 2 movies crammed into 1 (entirely the fault of Dino De Laurentis) but it’s worth watching. The music, the acting, the wonky ass special effects - it’s all mesmerizing even if it isn’t consistently good. But at times it’s fucking awesome and worth the watch.
