Well, since you all glommed on to Murdoc, OP-FOR et al, we’ve got to roll out the heavy stuff… And as for the film openings — the sequence from Bridges was part of the opening scene and for The Hunters…umm, well, they do look nice and pretty all lined up for the nice looooong take off roll (yawn)

What type of video are you using? I can’t open them or even tell what they are. It’s probably my problem with firewalls or options or something, but I figured I’d ask.
You-tube — which is more frequently being blocked by govt agencies and corporate world. One of the reasons I’ll put my stuff up over on Google video…

I suppose the Air Force crew could show a clip from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Starfighters This film, starring Ace Pilot Bob Dornan, was almost as underwhelming as “Plan 9 From Outer Space”.
I couldn’t understand some parts of this article w Scribe » Valour-IT Challenge: Video Face-Off, but I guess I just need to check some more resources regarding this, because it sounds interesting.
Not to worry – a lot of it was inside ball between the Air Force and Navy teams. Drop me a note offline and I’ll be glad to answer your questions

Best known as a swan winging its way across the night, the constellation Cygnus is easily seen in the northern hemisphere's summertime sky. This new view of the Cygnus-X star-forming region by the Herschel Telescope highlights chaotic networks of dust and gas that point to sites of massive star formation. This image combines far-infrared data acquired at 70 micron (corresponding to the blue channel); 160 micron (corresponding to the green channel); and 250 micron (corresponding to the red channel). The observations were made on May 24, 2010, and Dec. 18, 2010. Herschel is a European Space Agency cornerstone mission, with science instruments provided by consortia of European institutes and with important participation by NASA.

That’s a rather cheap shot, showing the CREDITS and then complaining of a lack of action.
In any case, back over to you. I think you’re gonna have a tough time sizing up to this one…
That there’s more about Hollywood than real-life.
(And NO FAIR invoking “Bridges!!” SOME things should be Beyond The Pale…)

Go Navy!
Okay dc, now that’s just going too far! Any movie that was on MST3K is unfair.
