Got to thinking, TCM may be using store bought DVD's that has copy protection. The copy guard will be passed on.

Just how accurate is the law in "Trial"?
hamradio replied to skimpole's topic in General Discussions
I wondered how accurate was the ending scene in "Justice For All"? Dang, your own lawyer think you should go straight to ******** jail. -
Either they fixed the Search function or it took the entire 4th of July to find this 5 year old thread.

Hey TCM. How about celebrating Canada Day, eh?

Nickelodeon just observed Canada Day.. "Ren and Stimpy Show - Weiner Barons" -
"Die Frau im Mond" (1929) Some of this movie was quite insightful and accurate in how the moon would be explored. Sending a probe to photograph it first and the dark side was on the button in being so heavily cratered like the later 1958 Soviet probe Luna 3 revealed. HOW IN THE HECK did they foresaw the Apollo 8 trajectory and Earth rise?? Used a multistage rocket like the Saturn V (referring to the 2nd stage as the middle) Understood g force on the body Movie is correct in that there should be an economic incentive like the acquisition of rare precious metals to validate the expense of space exploration. (asteroid mining for example). Moon surface is accurate regarding footprints. Taking photos / movie film Using a lander instead of the entire rocket like many sci fi film showed. Hard landing though, 1201 alarm I guess. Fritz Lang's idea of "The Right Stuff". Think instead of saying "One small step... he yelled... Hey, we can smoke here! (after lighting those matches ) "Spoiler"...some people said in the movie afterwards, the landing didn't happen because it was shot on a movie set. Had 2 similarities to the movie "Armageddon" (1998), a gun was brought on board and they had to draw straws to determine who stays behind.
