Sunshine

[boxy]

Saw this over the weekend. Science fiction at it's best (ie. not too much rom/com or other shit to dilute it).

I think you would enjoy it, Super Nova. There is a bit of poetic licence on the science front, but you need that. It's not a documentry.

A link would be helpful to know what you are dribbling about so we can shoot it down and tell you what fucking load of codswallop it is

It's a film, that I wont link to, to avoid spoiling the experience. I'm sure anyone with even basic googlefoo can find it

Along the avenue of hope
The footsteps falter, the fingers grope
and days, stretch out, beneath the sun
No-one's born, and no-one dies, no-one lives, so no-one cries
and we wait to see just what we will become

Don't let me falter, don't let me ride
Don't let the earth in me subside
Let me see just who I will become

You're like the clouds in my home town
You just grow fat and hang around
and you're days stretch out beneath the sun

and you don't live, you don't die, you don't love so you don't cry
and we wait, to see just what we will become

Don't let me borrow, don't let me bring
Don't let me wallow, don't make me sing
Let me see just who I will become

Don't let me falter, don't let me hide
Don't let someone else decide
Just who or what I will become

Don't let them borrow, don't let them bring
Don't let them wallow, don't make them sing

Along the avenue of hope
the footsteps falter, the fingers grope
and the days, stretch out, beneath the sun.
No-one's born, no-one dies, no-one loves, so no-one cries
and we wait to see just, what we will become

Don't let me falter, don't let me ride
Don't let the earth in me subside
Let me see just who I will become

You're like the clouds in my home town
You just grow fat & hang around
and your days stretch out beneath the sun
and no-one's born, & no-one dies, no-one loves, so no-one cries
and we wait to see just, what we will become

Don't let me borrow, don't let me bring

Don't let me wallow, don't make me sing
Let me see just, who I will become

Don't let me falter, don't let me hide
Don't let someone else decide
Just who or what, I will become

Don't make 'em borrow, don't make 'em bring
Don't let them wallow, don't let them sing
let them stretch out, beneath the sun.

Resounding success by the looks...

Thought this thread was about Vitamin D.

Hard to find a good science fiction film. Might have to check this one out on Netflix.

Boxy,

Had a look at the description on the web. You ar eright it sound like the sort of movie I love and my wife hates. i like many scifi movies that no-one else likes. So now I will be watching out for it on sky and if it does not come on soon I will get the video.

As long as the story sets up it's version of science fact early and stays true to it I generally love it. Then they can do what they like.

Scifi that appeal to everyone have to be really good to win me over. E.g. The matrix and even Avatar works for me because it remains true to the rule of nature that they use. (except for floating maintains... that was the only thing I could not buy into)

CCheck this out. SciFi comes to life.

What we have achieved in 200 years makes me feel Star Trek is only a thousand years away if we don't kill ourselves.

The Sun, mankind's oldest foe!

Although she killed quite a few of the crewmembers on this mission... nup, this is about "the Sun, mankind's oldest friend"
