    1) I shouldn't complain about the aspect ratio... but I will! Good thing no supermodels appear in this film!

    2) If there was a perfect place on the Moon to land I
    could understand BOTH expeditions going there.
    Cavor didn't exactly choose his landing site.
    Too bad they didn't leave Lotto tickets!

    The best line in the movie is when they find Cavor's little Union Jack, and the British astronaut says, "Well, I didn't put it there!"

    Followed up by Bedford's punchline at the end; "Poor Cavor, he did have such a terrible cold."


    cheers

    Sony Pictures has blocked the clip.
    (I watched it before, and I've seen it several times.)

    There's a BBC4 remake on YouTube.

2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.

Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.
