That never bothered me -- a dozen launches a day? That thing's a shuttle; it's got to be like flying from NYC to Chicago. Looks like the Titan crew are all passengers at this stage; the long-range vehicle is probably waiting in orbit.<br /><br /> It doesn't surprise me that a conformist culture like the one shown -- and the even more so corporate culture of Gattaca -- has them flying in natty black suits and proper haircuts.<br /><br /> Casting is brilliant -- Gore Vidal is exactly creepy enough.Roberta Xhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09956807794520627885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837660608809488753.post-60112796989923571922013-02-23T07:46:38.404-05:002013-02-23T07:46:38.404-05:00"I was conceived in the Riviera"

I've always felt that truly good science fiction is less about the technology and more about the human perspective in relation to that technology.

The doctor and his motivation at the end definitely pushes my buttons, as does the sacrifice a certain other character makes.<br /><br />And since it wasn't about the technology but the characters, that aspect was soooo minimalistic.<br /><br />And it had Earnest Borgnine in it.
