[scifinoir2] Re: Fav B Movie - Worse B Movie
my fave b scifi movies would definitely have to be whole live action giant robot series. robot jox, robot wars, and crash burn. all of which i own on vhs. robot jox had the best graphics. even if you can tell that they were using models there's something about acutally building something to scale. man i miss the old days when they actually had to build stuff. i also like a really obscure movie call space marines. it's been a while since i saw it. i doubt it'll ever end up on scifi (it just doesn't have the crappy factor that their looking for) i wish i could find it. it actually had a half way decent plot. something about trying to stop a dictator from getting a superweapon. oddly enough the movie was made in 1989 i think so go figure.
[scifinoir2] Re: Fav B Movie - Worse B Movie
almost forgot the worst. the worst for me was starship troopers 2: heros of the federation. all i have to say is HUH!?! was there even a plot or did they just start filming and say let's see what happens.
[scifinoir2] Re: Fav B Movie - Worse B Movie
My favorite Bad movie is The Reanimator which is so sick and wrong it is funny and Good (and, a must for a good B movie - it has an excellent nude scene)! I wanted to love Basket Case about a dim-witted man who carries his detached but formerly conjoined (and deformed)brother around in a covered basket but, while it it long on heads (the deformed brother is mostly head), it is short on heart. ~rave! --- In scifinoir2@yahoogroups.com, Tracey de Morsella (formerly Tracey L.

Re: [scifinoir2] Re: Fav B Movie - Worse B Movie
Wasn't Decoys a (gasp) Sci-FI Original? If so, I think I remember being a little impressed by the opening cinematography, then being horribly put off by the opening bit of dialogue. Do any of the Robocops count as B movies now? I think it's clear that Robocop 2 deserves to be on all of our lists. On Apr 24, 2007, at 11:50 AM, Tracey de Morsella (formerly Tracey L.

The storyline started true-to-form but deviated from the book around the series middle. And the main character they f'ed up on being that Jonny himself was a blond, blue eyed caucasion (not philipeno-which the roughnecks series got right on). But carmin was nearly spot on perfect. Eitherway dispite it's pluses they got enough wrong on the project that the Heinlin people didn' like it overall from what I heard. Still it was alot better than the movies.

I don't think Decoys was a Sci Fi Original. Just a few years ago, the bulk of the movies aired on Sci Fi were films they'd obtained from other sources. Things like Re-Animator, Lake Placid, a bunch of Steven King miniseries, etc. I think Decoy was from that group. Almost without fail, the Originals have been very crappy in writing, and distinguished by supposedly more modern, but miserable, CGI. -- Original message -- From: Oyabun of Beats [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wasn't Decoys a (gasp) Sci-FI Original? If so, I think I remember being a little impressed by the opening cinematography, then being horribly put off by the opening bit of dialogue. Do any of the Robocops count as B movies now?

[scifinoir2] (More on 581 c) Potentially habitable planet found
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070425/ap_on_sc/habitable_planet Potentially habitable planet found By SETH BORENSTEIN, AP Science Writer WASHINGTON - For the first time astronomers have discovered a planet outside our solar system that is potentially habitable, with Earth-like temperatures, a find researchers described Tuesday as a big step in the search for life in the universe. The planet is just the right size, might have water in liquid form, and in galactic terms is relatively nearby at 120 trillion miles away. But the star it closely orbits, known as a red dwarf, is much smaller, dimmer and cooler than our sun. There's still a lot that is unknown about the new planet, which could be deemed inhospitable to life once more is known about it. And it's worth noting that scientists' requirements for habitability count Mars in that category: a size relatively similar to Earth's with temperatures that would permit liquid water. However, this is the first outside our solar system that meets those standards. It's a significant step on the way to finding possible life in the universe, said University of Geneva astronomer Michel Mayor, one of 11 European scientists on the team that found the planet. It's a nice discovery. We still have a lot of questions. The results of the discovery have not been published but have been submitted to the journal Astronomy and Astrophysics. Alan Boss, who works at the Carnegie Institution of Washington where a U.S. team of astronomers competed in the hunt for an Earth-like planet, called it a major milestone in this business. The planet was discovered by the European Southern Observatory's telescope in La Silla, Chile, which has a special instrument that splits light to find wobbles in different wave lengths. Those wobbles can reveal the existence of other worlds. What they revealed is a planet circling the red dwarf star, Gliese 581. Red dwarfs are low-energy, tiny stars that give off dim red light and last longer than stars like our sun. Until a few years ago, astronomers didn't consider these stars as possible hosts of planets that might sustain life. The discovery of the new planet, named 581 c, is sure to fuel studies of planets circling similar dim stars. About 80 percent of the stars near Earth are red dwarfs. The new planet is about five times heavier than Earth. Its discoverers aren't certain if it is rocky like Earth or if its a frozen ice ball with liquid water on the surface. If it is rocky like Earth, which is what the prevailing theory proposes, it has a diameter about 1 1/2 times bigger than our planet. If it is an iceball, as Mayor suggests, it would be even bigger. Based on theory, 581 c should have an atmosphere, but what's in that atmosphere is still a mystery and if it's too thick that could make the planet's surface temperature too hot, Mayor said. However, the research team believes the average temperature to be somewhere between 32 and 104 degrees and that set off celebrations among astronomers. Until now, all 220 planets astronomers have found outside our solar system have had the Goldilocks problem. They've been too hot, too cold or just plain too big and gaseous, like uninhabitable Jupiter. The new planet seems just right - or at least that's what scientists think. This could be very important, said NASA astrobiology expert Chris McKay, who was not part of the discovery team. It doesn't mean there is life, but it means it's an Earth-like planet in terms of potential habitability. Eventually astronomers will rack up discoveries of dozens, maybe even hundreds of planets considered habitable, the astronomers said. But this one - simply called c by its discoverers when they talk among themselves - will go down in cosmic history as No. 1. Besides having the right temperature, the new planet is probably full of liquid water, hypothesizes Stephane Udry, the discovery team's lead author and another Geneva astronomer. But that is based on theory about how planets form, not on any evidence, he said. Liquid water is critical to life as we know it, co-author Xavier Delfosse of Grenoble University in France, said in a statement. Because of its temperature and relative proximity, this planet will most probably be a very important target of the future space missions dedicated to the search for extraterrestrial life. On the treasure map of the Universe, one would be tempted to mark this planet with an X. Other astronomers cautioned it's too early to tell whether there is water. You need more work to say it's got water or it doesn't have water, said retired NASA astronomer Steve Maran, press officer for the American Astronomical Society. You wouldn't send a crew there assuming that when you get there, they'll have enough water to get back. The new planet's star system is a mere 20.5 light years away, making Gliese 581 one of the 100 closest stars to Earth. It's so dim, you can't see it without a telescope, but it's somewhere in the constellation
[scifinoir2] Researchers Break Internet Speed Records
This is awesome. Download The Matrix in a couple of minutes? Imagine the possibilities for remote teleconferences, long-distance surveys and surgeries. Why, those people who don't want to go to the movies could actually watch a new movie release on home, not even having to wait for DVD rentals or pay-per-view. Of course, there's the whole Net Neutrality thing: outside of the trickle-down time it'd take for Internet2 to become available for the public, there's the whole issue of the big telecom companies wanting to control our access to the higher-tier speed pathways. More's the pity... :( Researchers Break Internet Speed Records By ANICK JESDANUN, AP Internet Writer NEW YORK - A group of researchers led by the University of Tokyo has broken Internet speed records _ twice in two days. Operators of the high-speed Internet2 network announced Tuesday that the researchers on Dec. 30 sent data at 7.67 gigabits per second, using standard communications protocols. The next day, using modified protocols, the team broke the record again by sending data over the same 20,000-mile path at 9.08 Gbps. That likely represents the current network's final record because rules require a 10 percent improvement for recognition, a percentage that would bring the next record right at the Internet2's current theoretical limit of 10 Gbps. However, the Internet2 consortium is planning to build a new network with a capacity of 100 Gbps. With the 10-fold increase, a high-quality version of the movie The Matrix could be sent in a few seconds rather than half a minute over the current Internet2 and two days over a typical home broadband line. Researchers used the newer Internet addressing system, called IPv6, to break the records in December. Data started in Tokyo and went to Chicago, Amsterdam and Seattle before returning to Tokyo. The previous high of 6.96 Gbps was set in November 2005. Speed records under the older addressing system, IPv4, are in a separate category and stand at 8.8 Gbps, set in February 2006. The Internet2 is run by a consortium of more than 200 U.S. university. It is currently working to merge with another ultrahigh-speed, next-generation network, National LambdaRail. The announcement of the new record was made at the Internet2 consortium's spring meeting, which ends Wednesday in Arlington, Va. [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

RE: [scifinoir2] Things Computers Can Do in Movies
Reece, you've reminded me of the one movie I did want remade, for one reason only. During the scene in which Colossus impregnates Julie Christie, thebackground music is changed to... Computer Love.

Word processors never display a cursor. 2. You never have to use the space-bar when typing long sentences. 3. Movie characters never make typing mistakes. 4. All monitors display inch-high letters. 5. High-tech computers, such as those used by NASA, the CIA or some such governmental institution, will have easy to understand graphical interfaces. 6. Those that don't have graphical interfaces will have incredibly powerful text-based command shells that can correctly understand and execute commands typed in plain English. 7. Note: Command line interfaces will give you access to any information you want by simply typing, ACCESS THE SECRET FILES on any near-by keyboard. 8. You can also infect a computer with a destructive virus by simply typing UPLOAD VIRUS. (See Fortress.) 9. All computers are connected. You can access the information on the villain's desktop computer even if it's turned off. 10. Powerful computers beep whenever you press a key or the screen changes. Some computers also slow down the output on the screen so that it doesn't go faster than you can read. (Really advanced computers will also emulate the sound of a dot-matrix printer.) 11. All computer panels operate on thousands of volts and have explosive devices underneath their surface. Malfunctions are indicated by a bright flash of light, a puff of smoke, a shower of sparks and an explosion that causes you to jump backwards. 12. People typing on a computer can safely turn it off without saving the data. 13. A hacker is always able to break into the most sensitive computer in the world by guessing the secret password in two tries. 14. You may bypass PERMISSION DENIED message by using the OVERRIDE function. (See Demolition Man.) 15. Computers only take 2 seconds to boot up instead of the average minutes for desktop PCs and 30 minutes or more for larger systems that can run 24 hours, 365 days a year without a reset. 16. Complex calculations and loading of huge amounts of data will be accomplished in under three seconds. Movie modems usually appear to transmit data at the speed of two gigabytes per second. 17. When the power plant/missile site/main computer overheats, all control panels will explode shortly before the entire building will. 18. If you display a file on the screen and someone deletes the file, it also disappears from the screen (See Clear and Present Danger). 19. If a disk contains encrypted files, you are automatically asked for a password when you insert it. 20. Computers can interface with any other computer regardless of the manufacturer or galaxy where it originated. (See Independence Day.) 21. Computer disks will work on any computer has a floppy drive and all software is usable on any platforms. 22. The more high-tech the equipment, the more buttons it will have (See Aliens.) 23. Note: You must be highly trained to operate high-tech computers because the buttons have no labels except for the SELF-DESTRUCT button. 24. Most computers, no matter how small, have reality-defying three-dimensional active animation, photo-realistic graphics capabilities. 25. Laptops always have amazing real-time video phone capabilities and performance similar to a CRAY Supercomputer. 26. Whenever a character looks at a monitor, the image is so bright that it projects itself onto their face. (See Alien or 2001?) 27. Searches on the internet will always return what you are looking for no matter how vague your keywords are. (See Mission Impossible, Tom Cruise searches with keywords like file and computer and 3 results are returned.) There is no reason Good can't triumph over Evil, if only angels will
[scifinoir2] Map of SciFinoir Member Locations
Hi SciFiNoir Family. Last year I signed us up for a service that provides a map of where scifinoir members live. A few members asked me about it, so I decided to post this message about it. Most of you probably live really close to other memers and do not even know it. This map will hopefully correct that. So, far 30 members have added their info. Please click through to add your point on the map. Takes less than a minute. http://www.frappr.com/scifinoir/map Thanks Tracey de Morsella, your moderator SciFiNoir/SciFiNoir-Lit http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SciFiNoir-lit/ http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SciFiNoir2/ Yahoo!
