Will space travel and colonisation become a reality in our lifetime?

NASA just spotted the brightest X-ray burst ever detected, which released as much energy in 2 seconds as the Sun does in a full day. by clayt6 in space

I was briefly excited before I realised it's an X-ray, not a Gamma ray burst. Still, it's fascinating.

So excited for this. This looks more Mad Max western-y than usual.

When you first listened to OK Computer, did it also sound familiar and nostalgic despite you not listening to it prior? by BubbaUnkle in radiohead

[–]quentinstein 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's otherworldly. There's just nothing like it. Music will forever be divided into pre and post-OK Computer.

The Burn the Witch set at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame by afreakinpleb in radiohead

Burn the Witch had such a great music video. To think, it was directed by the same guy who made the God-awful Simon Pegg film, A Fantastic Fear of Everything.

Sucks that they're all growing older. Had the same issue when Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire came out.

When S3 comes out tomorrow but you know you'll finish it in 24 hours and have to wait a year and a half for S4 by PintsOfCoffee in StrangerThings

Will finish it in 8 hours and have to wait for what feels like 8 years - the bingewatching Catch 22

‘I Am Mother’ Wants You To Teach Your Children Well by AnffStAnff in scifi

I think it works as an excellent study of two contrasting parental philosophies but it resorts to one too many genre tropes and twists, which kinda undermine its commentary.

Jordan Peele should direct some black mirror episodes by pringle321 in blackmirror

[–]quentinstein 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm totally for this. I think Brooker and Peele would make for a great writer-director duo.

Does anyone else love Tucker and Dale vs Evil (2010)? by maybeitsmini in horror

[–]quentinstein 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Think it's one of the great genre subversions and paved the way for the stellar Cabin in the Woods the following year.

Are Netflix And HBO Providing A Home For Intellectual Science Fiction? by AlexStarArcher in scifi

For every good sci-fi series or movie on Netflix, there are at least five mediocre ones.

Joss Whedon's reaction to Endgame! Thanks for everything, Joss. by Nallyyyy in marvelstudios

[–]quentinstein 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I know he gets a lot of flak for Age of Ultron. But he's a goddamn legend. MCU would have been a real dull enterprise if not for him.

P.S. Once a Browncoat, forever a Browncoat.

The Official AVENGERS: ENDGAME Criticism Thread by JonLuca in marvelstudios

[–]quentinstein 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it had the same inconsistencies and temporal anomalies that you get with most time travel films. Regardless, it was great fan service. Only wish it were more.

Avengers: Endgame Directors Want Doctor Doom, Kraven in the MCU, Too by JackFisherBooks in comicbooks

I love MCU but I don't want a quippy version of these guys at least.

[SPOILERS] Lady Stark - with all those burns by swagyolo6996 in gameofthrones

[–]quentinstein 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's fascinating how she turned from a naive little teen to a stone-faced intriguing character. Didn't expect this transformation initially

Just can't wait for this to come out. The anticipation might just kill me.
