2024-05-13 08:43:44 +0000 UTCI'm pretty sure planes can land themselves. ~2006, I was in a plane that took off and then took a hard right turn, like a concerning one. The pilot told us the plane's auto pilot took off and then did the turn when it reached what it considered a safe altitude. That was taking off but I think he joked about planes being smarter than you think but not perfect. After that, I had the impression planes can land themselves

2024-04-19 03:08:14 +0000 UTCNew patron here, love your show, just wanna do a slight push back, you CAN make plane combat look cool, this movie just didn't do it, the replay mode in Ace Combat 7 does a better job (even though I admit I still love the part where the F-15 does a Kevin Costner)

2021-01-19 13:29:11 +0000 UTCLoved the episode. I can’t believe you didn’t mention General Radek was played by Duke Leto Atreides. The song they are singing at his release, as called the Internationale.

2020-12-04 06:31:15 +0000 UTCI kept waiting for you to talk about Halle Berry and then realized that's a whole different 1996 presidential airplane movie.

2020-12-03 22:48:26 +0000 UTCI’m 109yo and has never seen this. Fantastic. Also, just how many explosions and machine gun shoot outs can you have on a plane without even one problem? Asking for a friend.

2020-12-02 03:00:12 +0000 UTCTraitor guy should totally have Bugs Bunnyed the landing. He'd have been fine. Camacho 2024.

2020-11-28 10:25:28 +0000 UTCI saw a documentary a few years back on plane technology and nowadays planes are able to land themselves, but it's only to be used for emergency situations.

2020-11-27 16:30:59 +0000 UTCI watched this movie for the first time ever last night as a part of my Gary Oldman filmography watch, not even knowing this was the bonus GAM for the month. I'm so stoked right now.

2020-11-27 16:12:03 +0000 UTCPlanes can't really land them selves no. Computer assisted landings are a thing, instrument landings etc. Also please, please do the movie Stealth (2005) someday! It's from the Fast and the Furious director it has drifting fighter planes!

2020-11-27 14:30:56 +0000 UTCA friend of mine told me about watching this movie in a theater in England and listening to the entire audience laugh their heads off all of the way through. She said that after going through that, she has always seen this movie as a comedy. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

2020-11-27 08:05:16 +0000 UTCThank you, Heath, I have been wondering about the pronunciation of Parler. For sure they should have called it Parley but maybe that name is taken somewhere in the world.

2020-11-27 03:33:07 +0000 UTCOh my god, Eli mentioned Tiptoes. That is a hilarious disaster of a movie. A movie about prejudice towards little people starring a Gary Oldman AS A LITTLE PERSON with horrible fake legs and Matthew McCaunaughey as his average-sized brother who has a crisis about possibly having a child with dwarfism.

2020-11-27 03:05:21 +0000 UTCLike Heath said about Parler: it apparently WAS originally supposed to be said like the French verb for "to speak", but y'know, it got used by a bunch of right wingers, and they're stupid, so ...

2020-11-27 00:30:14 +0000 UTCAircraft can for sure land automatically. Autoland was first certified in the 60s. Use autopilot to get close and then autoland to land the airplane. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autoland

2020-11-26 22:48:13 +0000 UTCAh, a little disappointed that it wasn't JFK because someone in the "poll" post sold it really well. Bad action movies are less fun, but let's see how the podcast goes...

2020-11-26 20:48:30 +0000 UTCI loved this movie as a kid. What if Die Hard happened on Air Force One? Great schlocky action is the result.
