The image with Balem Abrasax written at the top (the first big image) reminds me, at first glance, of a head-on view of the Alien from Alien. Not so much when you zoom it. Jeanne

It's a Wachowskis movie. Guff, but stylish guff all the same. That's what they're for. =] --- "She's old, she's lame, she's barren too, // "She's not worth feed or hay, // "But I'll give her this," - he blew smoke at me - // "She was something in her day." -- Garnet Rogers, Small Victory FiMFiction.net: we might accept blatant porn involving the cast of My Little Pony but as God is my witness we have standards. |

>From the looks of things, the movie is an outright bomb. But I love >the aesthetics: > >http://io9.com/jupiter-ascendings-spaceship-designs-are-even-cooler-th-1684331706 So, watched it. My wife had a fantastic review afterwards: "It might have been a little better if it were just a little worse." But it had an albino space werewolf get into a fight with a space dragon using anti gravity boots, so..you know...go see that. -- -Pasha ("You do not treat your cousin like a chicken!")

Having just watched this the other day I can say this. If you ignore the first 30-45 minutes, the dull (minus actual conflict scenes) stuff and watch from when it gets to the space/universe stuff, it becomes a half decent "EVE-Online" style movie (including "immortals") the Aegis ship reminded me heavily of Caldari style ships, Prince Titus' royal vessel could pass for Amarrian, and the whole Jupiter complex was Minmitar. The fact everything was controlled by "profits" just added to it. TL;DR Ignore the cliche overused romance and watch as a movie adaptation of EVE-Online. Also, Figure skating in space. See Comment. |
