I think The Axiom continues to take care of humanity while they rebuild the planet.

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Laga speaks for me. The ship is still in working order and could support the population while they were in the process of rebuilding.
I wouldn't be entirely surprised if the Axiom had a seed bank stashed away somewhere - after all, wasn't EVE's purpose to see if the planet was able to sustain plant life? Ideally, her return would have been a signal to get back to earth and start planting.
Pizza plant seeds!
The end credits show the people living in the escape pods, but wearing the same Axiom red suits for centuries, so I guess BNL continues to amaze with it's foresight and building to last.
WALL*E/EVE = John/Aeryn, if John were a DRD and Aeryn were an iPhone. So yeah, pretty much my OT OTP.

I totally didn't notice that! (Obviously.) I was only looking for Wall*E and Eve in the end credits.
So I saw One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest last night. I thought it was kind of boring, and there seemed to be very little narrative drive. And I didn't think Nurse Ratched was all that bad; she just seemed to be doing her job most of the time, not abusing her power or anything like that. It was interesting to see several famous actors so young, though. Hardly recognized them!
I guess I've seen so many TV/movie mental institutions made since then that the Big One seems sort of blah in comparison.
I went to see My Bloody Valentine last night. Ah, the Stupid burns! Apparently, in this movie's setting, a copycat serial killer can run wild in a town that previously had a 22-victim massacre and instead of state police and feds swooping in, the investigation is left in the hands of its Mayberry-esque 3-person police department headed by an angry frat boy. There's no curfew, no street patrols or checkpoints, no common-sense evacuation of town residents from the ongoing murder spree zone, and a woman who's escaped an attack by the clairvoyant teleporting attacker is just fine leaving her kid at home with the maid/nanny (that her career as a grocery store manager allows her to hire how, exactly?) without even calling to check on him.
Throughout all the above, my mantra was that this flick earned its right to exist by giving Jensen Ackles the opportunity to clock Kerr Smith in the head with a pickaxe.
I thought it was rather fun - cheesey but fun. Of course, it could have been better in so many ways. I hope JA gets some actual good movie roles eventually.
What, besides Dawson's Creek, could I have seen Kerr Smith in? He looked so familiar and I never watched DC.
He was on Charmed for a while, and in Final Destination.
Of course, if you've seen Julian McMahon in anything that might also explain why he looks familiar.
I must not have been watching Charmed when he was in it. . . or at least I don't think I was - I stopped before Shannon Doherty left. Well, watching regularly - I may have watched sporadically after that.
