Eyewitnesses reported that during last nights 9:15pm Real3D screening
of Gravity, a lone man (later identified as retired ISS Commander Chris
Hadfield) began muttering under his breath and chuckling to himself. By
the 30-minute mark, Hadfield reportedly made numerous rude comments such
as, Nice Soyuz procedure, Hollywood! and Oh yeah, because thats what
hypoxia as caused by rapid cabin decompression looks like you idiots!.

It was the damndest thing, recounted Isabelle Tremblay. My boyfriend
and I were like, what a jerk, and he went back to talk to him. But
then he came back to our seats and he was like Im pretty sure that was
that astronaut guy. You know, from the news. So we just let him go. I
mean, what do you do? An astronaut probably gets George Clooneys
character struggles a little better than I do.

Hadfields alleged berating of the film continued unabated. During one
crucial and deathly silent scene involving Sandra Bullocks characters
desperate attempt to reach her vessel and avoid dying in the void of
space, the man who brought honour and fun to Canadian space exploration
let out a long, piercing, and altogether perfect fart.

Eventually, theatre staff was notified, and the Canadian living legend
was loudly removed from the cinema. Witnesses report that he did not go
quietly. One patron recalled, The last thing I heard him yelling was,
Have you been to space? Because Ive been to space!

But hes still a hero, I suppose.

At press time, Commander Hadfields family and friends were really
hoping he never finds out about the 1996 horror classic: Leprechaun In
Space.

Neil Degrasse Tyson was a bit more polite but his review of the movie
reached a similar conclusion.
My neighbor tried to get us to go with them and was surprised when I
said it was a road runner cartoon.


It's just a fictional movie. Dr. Zhivago was a terrific book and movie,
though the movie differed from the book, and neither really depicted the
level of horror of the first few years of communist rule in Russia.

Speaking of Dr. Zhivago ...

The movie came out when I was living in Connecticut. I was "exploring"
at the time, dating different girls every week or so. All they wanted
to do was see "Dr. Zhivago". I must have seen it 5 times in 3 months.

I read the novel for a 10th grade book report for my favorite teacher of
all time, Mrs. Emma Ruff. She loved the report, and gave me an A+. Some
years later, she became principal of the school. Her husband is a
world-famous musician and is on the Yale faculty, or was the last time I
checked. Willie Ruff, part of the Mitchell-Ruff duo.

Catchy tune from that movie...

Got stuck in New York overnight with wife and kids (on way to Disneyworld) way back in the early 90's. A guy in tux and violin played this at our dinner table.

You *had* to do it, huh? I didn't even open the youtube link and I
knew it was "Laura's Theme". Now it's stuck in my head for the rest of
the day.

Thanks a lot ! :-)

Got a kick out of the scene where the Dr and his family Arrived in the frozen Sumner home.
In a similar situation,
My buddies and I went out to a camp after midnight fueled on cheap bootlegger wine.
There were two double beds to hold six of us and the frost was about an inch thick on the bedspread.
I worked until 5 to unthaw the small oil stove.
Didn't sleep much that night due to a lot of gunplay inside the cabin initiated by me.
No campers were hurt in the mayhem...the cabin wasn't so airtight after that.
