Would it work?

Or would it be too cliched?

***monster-eats-pilot*** · 06-22-2008, 06:04 PM

ummmm why?

***Kiowa Warrior*** · 06-22-2008, 06:10 PM

No it's a perfect setting, because there'd be plenty of opportunites for Jack to accidentally be shot out of the air lock into deep space!

Ooh Ki you are cruel. (I like it

)

Poor Jack, drifting out in space, screaming and yelping but no-one or thing can hear his cries

Because traditionally alot of scifi shows that deal with core scifi elements such as time-travel etc are set in outta space etc. Productions like Star Wars, Star trek, BSG, Star Gate..

Fair enough...
It's just I couldnt imagine it. It just works so well on the island.

But Roco I said if Jack was accidentally thrown face first out of an air lock, so for me to be cruel there would have to be intention on my part for him to meet such a fitting fate

What a terrible, terrible shame if that were to happen to him! Just terrible...although if he wasn't wearing a spacesuit then he'd last only a couple of minutes I think. What an even worse fate...

And I inititally thought about Lost being set on a spaceship not really due to the time-travel/sci-fi elements, but rather the being lost in the unknown side...like drifting along in their spaceship with an aim to get home, but with no clear map to follow or any solid idea of what they'll have to face or sacrifice. (Possibly sort of a bit like in Battlestar Galactica with them all trying to find Earth for a new home, if anyone watches it and understands what I mean, lol)

Space ships + Magic? Black Smoke going throught the docking bay? Turning the donkey wheel in the engine room and teleporting onto mars? Appolo bars?

Who knows?

I don't think it would work as everything could be answered with Science Fiction, so that would spoil a lot of the mystery.

Well, Battlestar Galactica is set in a spaceship, but there are so many mysteries , and many people don't think they could be answered with Science Fiction and insist that the show contains the supernatural elements (this is still a subject of debates... we'll see...)
