This still sets the standard for "super advanced spaceship" to me. It's how I pictured some of the ships in Iain M. Banks' Culture novels. I feel like current VFX would lead to textures and greebling in the name of scale and visual interest, but that's not the right choice for a ship like this.

haha @mime666.bsky.social I didn't see your post ๐Ÿคฃ Well, I'm sure this is a conspiracy. There isn't another movie where the same video appears as a comment on every one of my posts. (which is neat, btw)

Captain Disillusion's video rightly applauding the efforts of the VFX team is my YouTube equivalent of comfort food. youtu.be/tyixMpuGEL8?...

Your goal in life should be to create something that inspires someone else to do this kind of beautiful tribute 35 years later. If you release it this year, it will happen by 2061! if you wait a bit, Vulcans could even watch it.

40 years ago today a movie came out and then 5 years, 2 months and 12 days ago, I stood next to screen-used props from that movie and got all YouTube-video-essayist about it.

Jโ€™ai revu ce film il y a quelques semaines, quels souvenirs ๐Ÿคฉ L'ambiance est vraiment rรฉussie, le jeune acteur est trรจs convaincant ๐Ÿค“
