Dr. Ryan Stone,Gravity.
A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, people didnt hate space.
As a matter of fact they really liked space.
Space was supremely stelliferous and resplendent with diverse worlds, exotic alien species and assorted cultures.
Space was wide, wide open for an amazing array of exhilarating, unearthly adventures.
Laugh it up, fuzzball its so much fun.
Up there and out there was mystery and obscurity.
The starry ocean was an infinite expanse of possibility to explore, conquer and come to properly comprehend.
Such developments were paralleled in film.
(Off the top of my head,Destination MoonandForbidden Planetare two stand-out pictures among many).
The following year the Apollo 11 mission successfully landed some men on the Moon.
You want to go home and rethink your life… Id say that the time is right for another galaxy-size-grin space opera riot.
We have fresh excitement and a new hope in the upcomingStar Warssequels.
First though, we have the imminent Marvel Cinematic Universe release that really is expanding the super-franchises Universe.
Were in space with a smart-ass fighting raccoon and were going to save the galaxy!
Oh, this is so much fun laugh it up, fuzzball.
