PLEASE!!! NO MORE ICE CUBE TRAYS!!!

I don't get the meaning of this.

To remedy what about ice cube trays?

Anyone have a pic of this tracking device?

O'Bannon had them in Darkstar's cockpit, too

@cypher. Beat ya to it.

We should remember the rule established by the Star Wars prequels which is that technology is always better in the prequels. Besides, I wouldn't have noticed the "ice cube tray" on that thing if no one had pointed that out ;)

good job!!! what else is out there that we might have missed?

"good job!!! what else is out there that we might have missed?" How about real aliens instead of those cheesy fake rubber suits we always see.

I remember seeing one of the Robocop movies (I think is was #3) and they used a cable to upload data to his memory. Being a plumber I knew it was a flex hose for a toilet, I thought it was pretty funny.

Yeah but I had the answer first, just no picture :-P

Big fan of the dressed up "Steel pot" helmets and Vietnam era jungle boots in Aliens, myself ;)

It should have a better budget than Alien. According to IMDB the original budget for Alien was 4.2 mill and then Fox doubled that. Lol

I'll always remember seeing a Pressure Cooker (looks like one) in the Lab in Aliens ...

A pressure cooker still existing in the future may not be that strange. If it works, it works. I allways liked how on the rebooted Battlestar series they still had modern style phone handsets and pencils on the ships. And if you spent a ton of money shipping a bunch of marines across the galaxy your going to spend any more than you have to on their shoes?

@Ashmodean: because once all that multi-bazillion dollar equipment gets the Marines to the fight, they're going to spend a lot of time on their FEET. Point being, it's funny seeing old gear recycled and worn on troops supposedly 200 years in the future. They did do a great job with it though, especially the M-41a. Hey, at least they weren't carrying M-16s. Oh wait, that flamethrower looks familiar...

Hahahaha! The "motion tracker" in AlienS was not that much better.

And TONS of loading pallets because they have cool holes and light can shine through them for wall decoration. Used in every sci fi movie and TV show. We had tons of them on Babylon 5.
