And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Space Boy is lucky the robots are slow and stupid.
Captain 'something' and the 'something' of Tomorrow... starring the two actors in Hollywood with the least charisma. Best role in it went to Angelina Jolie.
And here I sit, not bowling today, six days after total knee replacement. Hope it doesn't snow.
"Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow." Got panned at the theater, but is a great throwback to Sci-fi action movies of yesteryear. Could have done without Gwyneth Paltrow, though. Terrible actress IMHO.
A few seconds later the raygun dies and the sidekick says "Shake it", giving it enough juice to kill the 2nd robot. Stunning movie, great fun. Super Science!
I want and need one of those Cheerio guns.

ReplyDeleteWanted to see that movie when it came out, but never got around to it. I don't think I missed anything.
DeleteJude Law is faster than Bruce Lee !
ReplyDeleteThey actually have the target front and center on their chests. Engineering by Boeing?
ReplyDelete"Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow" (2004). A seriously underrated movie, from a time when we didn't know how batshit crazy Gwenneth Paltrow was.
