Yeah, in the real world there is no upside down in space.

But if you look at Star Wars or especially Star Trek, you will notice that the ships always are like horizontally aligned. It is a normal thing in movies to make “it look good”.

Yeah, I’ve noticed that. It’s become a pet peeve of mine.

Why?
Can you imagine how hard it would be to tell a story if spaceships didn’t stay “upright” most of the time. It’d also be very disorientating to watch. It would make scientific sense, but in cinematically it would be an absolute mess.
(Also SW is basically just Middle-Earth in space. It’s not exactly known for its scientific accuracy.)

Let’s just say Babylon 5 showed me it could be done.

I was worried this new trailer would disappoint. i was wrong, so very wrong! absolutely psyched to see this in December!

Change “December” to “whenever the hell I’ll be able to watch it”, and this sums up my thoughts as well.

why not December?

For varying reasons, I don’t go out to the movies. That leaves me to wait 'til the movie goes out on video/Netflix/whatever.
