Anyone remember Silent Running?

Question

I love the tree orb things. Also, does the new security person remind anyone else of Drummer from The Expanse? Similar eye shadow, hair style and posture.

Everyone on here that’s ever seen The Expanse has said that about her. Some of them thought it was actually Cara Gee.

It’s basically on every other thread, there’s always a least one or two commenting on La’an looking like Drummer.

Yes, but there was also The Starlost, that preserved both ecologies and cultures.

The one season 70s show The Starlost was based on a Harlan Ellison concept (although he removed his name from it as a creator because his concepts we’re unaffordable with existing special effects technology). The StarLost ship model

Many years ago, sometime in the seventies, a friend of the family bought the local theater in our very small town. He asked us what kind of movies he should show. I was fairly young at the time but I said science fiction. The first movie he showed was Silent Running. I will always remember it.

SR depressed me when I saw it at like 13.

ANd yes, I thought of SR hearing the description of how they built the space station.

think it this way: SNW gave an happy ending to Silent Running

That's a nice way to look at it. :) In some future scene they should put a subtle "only fans would get this" statue of Dewie (or whichever robot that was) in a shot.
