I got news for ya,...flying saucers don't fly like that, If you saw 'Beverly Hills Cop" - cops really aren't that clever (or dedicated) and if you saw "Bad Santa" well I hate to tell you this,.. but there ain't no such thing as santy claus... IT's HOLLYWOOD we are talking about here...they've been known to stretch the truth for a storyline a few thousand times before... lighten up.. [/quote]war of the worlds where not flying saucers..they where ground attact mechines...and if thier is life out thier in the deep cold darkness of space..thier is nothing saying that some other alien race dosnt have war mechines that look like that....lol csx engineer [/quote] Well man, I worked for a property management firm whose specialty was hi-rise office buildings,...and the movie "Towering inferno" was just as crammed full of inaccuracies...I've known airline pilots personally, and they assure me that "auto-pilots" are not inflatable manform balloons as in the movie "Airplane", and does ANYBODY think christopher reeves could patch himself in with his leg, backbone and shoulder as a missing section of rail in the movie "Superman"? (gee, if he's so tough I wonder how they got the spikes hammered into the ties without bending them?) etc. What you've got here is a group of fairly knowledgeable railroad folks complaining because they are more knowledgable than the skript writers even cared to be, because they were making a movie for mass consumption, and needed a STORY more than they needed accuracy.. If Accuracy was important to Hollywood they sure as heck could have afforded a consultant infinitely more knowledgeable than all the naysayers thusfar in this thread, combined.
