[QUOTE="Tarrasque Wrangler, post: 1070384, member: 7473"] 1.) What's the BEST spaceship design you've seen in any Sci-Fi offering? Super Star Destroyer from ESB. 5 miles of fun! 2.) ...the Coolest? I'm going to break from the Star Wars rank-and-file and go with the X-Wing. I wanted one so bad when I was a kid. Heck, I still do. It goes hyperspeed, it's got four lasers, proton torpedoes, it's own R2 papoose, and it can take off after being left in a swamp for days. What's not to love. My girlfriend begs to differ. She says the Defiant. It -was- pretty darn tough. Heavy arms and armor, fast as hell, and it had a cloaking device. Hmm, this is tougher than I first surmised... 3.) ...the Most Unique or Original? The Bebop just oozed character. 4.) ...the Most Realistic? The Nostromo from Alien. This is what I imagine interstellar travel will be like: cramped, greasy, and industrial, with human comfort an afterthought. 5.) ...the Lamest? The Last Starfighter. It's ultimate weapon is ... it spins around real fast, shooting randomly. Sounds like a great way to induce vomiting. [/QUOTE]
