All right, this one goes like this: Pick your five top all-time favorite ships. If you can, find a clip of the ship and post it, along with the reason they are in your top five favorites.
5-The Snark
Jack London's sailboat - I mean, really, she was called The SNARK! Do I really need to say more?
Like most things from her time, she's gone.
But not forgotten!
4-The Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird
Close enough, dammit. She touched space, mates, and no one flying today can touch her. No one.
(Of course, that's only if you believe they're all mothballed now...) *wink*
3-The NCC-1701-D (Yep, that Enterprise).
When I was in high school, the goings-on on this ship were basically my life. She's brought more joy to me than I can say.
2-The Incom T-65 X-Wing Starfighter
You can keep your Falcon, Han fans. Us Jedi types prefer the fighter, thanks.
1-Serenity.
June 14, 2009:
SFX Magazine: If you were a spaceship from a TV show or movie, which would you be (and why)?
wabbit: Serenity, because even Incom's best X-Wings don't have a comfy couch.
Oh, yes. It always boils down to those two. But in the end, there can be only one.
PS-bonus to whoever can name this baby, with the exception oflemonpiefirefly , who is not allowed to play. This gorgeous girl would be in here if she was, in fact, a ship and not a plane. (Now THAT would've been HARD - the Eagle, the Phantom, the Warthog, and this sweet sister. (Both this plane individually and her model in general-though there is great debate about her actual designation: flying boat or floating plane? I really don't need that kind of controversy here. I'll just let it go, though I do have my preference on the matter.) Seriously, though, planes would be tough!)
Ok, ok, ok! Twist my arm why don't ya? This one would be #2 and the Phantom #1! Sheesh!
