Well, that's why you go, surely? Apparently I've got a degree but I'll beggered if know what it's in, all I remember is being sick and, err, stuff I can't post here. Happy days.

Yeah... I did Human Biology and I did try to explain I was doing the practical stuff but it didn't wash

My God!
If he needs that stuff explained to him he probably just turned up for Freshers week, got drunk and went "I don't wanna do this.. I wanna make games (hic)"

The Wing Commander Movie. Sonar. In Space. 'Nuff said.

Wow - I forgot about that

Is there any way to watch that movie again, without actually buying it?

It was on Netflix - watched it not too long ago. Gone now

I've not seen it. Is it more disappointing than playing Arena Commander?

It's a bit sweary in parts for anyone who doesn't like sweary

Why would do that to yourself?

It has it's moments

It's not the worst movie ever made - but be prepared to fill a lulzbucket or two

I'm still pretty sore about the WC movie. I thought a proper director could have gotten something really swashbuckly fun out of it in the Guardians of the Galaxy vein I guess - wisecracks and knowing cheese galore. Sure they could have done a decent old-school kilrathi with animatronics and a fur coated muscle suit - all doable in films of the time just fine, but no. Nonsense, just garbage. Only stands up ok as a geek drinking game for each time a line makes you groan or they do stupid stuff like stay quiet so scanners can't hear them.

Me neither, but I've been warned a few times, so not even trying

AWESOME! - Thanks Neo - I love classic B movies - Zombie Beavers & Sharknado are great, but Wing Commander is among the best

I tried watching it twice but I just couldn't get through it - unintentional comedy notwithstanding.

ETA - MST3K could have done a great number on it come to think of it..

One more: "How can the graphics in this movie be worse than the original video game?"

Thanks for that Ian - most entertaining.

It was posted in here before by someone else a while back - found it in history.

He is funny for one of those shouty youtube types though.

My first impression was - how can STORY and ACTING be worst than WCIII/WCIV? I mean WCIV is light years away from what WC movie is.
