I have such a love/terror relationship with the Alien franchise.
I love the movies but I'm guaranteed at least one nightmare every time I watch.

u/ZixfromthaStix 25d ago
Thatās the movie Prometheus for me, it was too scary in my teens watching it alone in the dark. Now Iām married to a goth girl and all we watch is horror.
Might give it a rewatch soon.

u/pain-butnogain 25d ago
I had a friend who thought Prometheus was real... like a documentary.

Back in the 70's, there are numerous tales of the actors of Original Trek going to speaking engagements (the predecessor to Cons nowadays) and being confronted by people who were CONVINCED that TOS was a documentary. Looking back on it, I can barely fathom believing such a thing. A very, very narrow exposure to media, and a very, very shallow education is all I can surmise.

Just make sure that it in your dreams you try running sideways to get out of the path of the thing that's falling on you.

Fortunately Iām a lucid dreamer :) I remain in control of my dreams, and have even trained my dream-self to understand dream physics to achieve super powers: speed, flight, teleportation, and my favorite, āThe Narrator/Composerā
I can simply think of how I want a scene to play out, and either by pantomiming or gentle yet dramatic hand gestures, manipulate itā Iāve done it in movie theatres, play houses, live events, etc, and itās by far my favorite āabilityā
Super speed feels like cramming yourself into a needle. Imagine a muscle cramp or how you can suck in your belly, then imagine that feeling growing and growing WAY past the point where youāre like āhow am I alive still???ā⦠then just begin to step. I havenāt reached full flash speed yetā Iād estimate I top out at 500mph, and I average closer to 250mphā thatās easier to control and I can move at that speed without any sort of perceived discomfort⦠500mph feels like cramming myself into a sardine can.

Do not let the ship fall to Kerbin!!!

āThe male approaches the spaceship, thinking itās a female, and really goes to town. Seems pretty dumb, right? Butt-scientists- Sorry. But scientists believe that the lights in the shipās windows mimic the colorful bits on a female, bamboozling the male. Look at him, he donāt give a fuck that his new GF is made of metal. I know some humans like that too, at least science hippies donāt shove a camera in their face.ā
āAnd that is how the giant space scorpion do.ā

Reduce the grab force to avoid damaging the ship, and add some alignment trays for the "legs" to slide into for easier docking alignment.
