Natasha Henstridge braces for Impact

typically i am all good for suspending disbelief. but are they fucking serious?
the premise of a dwarf star "hitting" the moon is so beyond preposterous that
it is silly. the star nearest to us is the sun...and beyond that the nearest
star is millions of miles away. add to the fact that stars are not comets or
asteroids in that they don't go rogue and move, or explode and fragment into
solid pices and you have a tale of complete and utter bullshit/

there is in no way any science to this science fiction. it's just complete
bullshit. seriously...who gave the go ahead for this, because it is an
astronomical possibility. i know, i took an astronomy class. i didn't pay
attention at all. i barely remember a thing. but i know damn well that what
they described happening...just the simple premise alone...is not even remotely
feasible.

and i am a big fan of scifi.

the space shuttle travels a million miles in about 60 hours while in orbit. i
think you mean trillions 🙂
nearest star: proxima centauri, 4.2 light years from earth, or around 25
trillion miles (yeah, i googled).

i agree the premise is a bit silly. you'd think we'd see it coming a trillion
miles away and would have a few thousand years to prepare countermeasures.

i guess "real" sci-fi is left to nbc and their sci fi channel wing... when
they're not making low-budget scifi made-for-tv-movies.... and concentrates more
on the fiction than science (it's too much $$ to make anything like brane-theory
or string-theory work in a practical "real world" scenario)

i'll check out an early review of this most likely... see what state of clothing
nat has, if she has any naughty scenes with harm from jag (you know, the
typical.. omg we're gonna die let's have sex)... not care she's in a suit the
whole movie and still watch it at least once. it's for those late-night insomnia
sessions where you have to watch tv because you can't go to bed and your eyes
bleed from other working for the last 12 hours.
