Did you get any inspiration (heaven knows there weren't any other • redeeming
qualities to it) from the movie Space Truckers?  They used a system *kind*
of like that. Sadly it was one of Dennis Hopper's worse movies. Right up
there with Water World. ugh. :)


Pah! It was heaps better than Waterworld!!! Though not necessarily a good
movie, Space Truckers is in the better 30% of B-grade movies (despite having
a suspiciously A-grade appearance budget-wise), and has some things that
die-hard space freaks like us should definitely check out. And Dennis Hopper
sucks in almost every movie he's in anyway (except I haven't seen "Blue
Velvet" - d'oh!).
And "Space Truckers" has Charles Dance playing an "evil" pirate captain!
What more could anyone want in a cast. (Apart from Bill Paxton.)    ;-)
Hmmm, actually I seem to recall that pirate spaceship was kinda cool...
MOC, anyone?
