So, uh ... why was there an axe on the spaceship again?
>>67188803
Because there was an axe in the first one
to fight the space Ents, duh
To shove up your asshole
>>67188803
Space-axes are crucial.
>>67188803
Why was there fucking gravity? That's a better question.
>Show something spinning
>This is how gravity is explained in scifi movies
No, fuck off.
For asteroids, if they get lodged into your ship you gotta beat em out somehow
>>67188847
Why is that axe normal, but Vickers has a weird curved one?
>>67188847
Jesus Christ, why is that pantie hanging so low?
Space trees
>inb4 the dumb fa/tv/irgin that says is because in case of a fire
>>67188803
to cut through spacewood doors in case a fire breaks out
>>67188944
>44
So she has something to grind
The same reason that Marv turned into a skeleton.
>>67188930
Hello dumb fa/tv/irgin
>>67188929
It's obviously to break through stuff. Why WOULDN'T you have an axe? That's a much better question.
>>67188901
Because she is minus an ass.
>>67189002
>implying you wouldn't a late 70's moot
>>67189002
>this is a 10/10 ass for white people
>>67189002
implying andro ain't my fetish
>>67189043
>>67189002
dimples of venus, man, watch closely
>>67188803
>Why is an analog manual heavy duty cutting tool in a large ship designed for traveling mass distances in remote areas
I don't know, maybe because if the power is out, axes are good fucking tools.
>>67189002
I'm sure you posted this as an insult, but sigourney's the only ass-less woman who gets a pass. I'd still bang that flat Ripley booty.
>>67189002
Look at that horrific androgynous monster face. How can anyone want to fuck that AND fridge?
>people talking shit about Sigourney Weaver
look at her in Galaxy Quest and tell me you wouldn't fuck her
>>67189209
I wouldn't fuck her.
What now?
>>67189002
Someone chopped her ass with the axe.
>>67189223
liar
>>67189227
kek
>>67189247
I wouldn't. Your dad wouldn't approve.
>>67188988
What are you going to break through on a vacuumproof spaceship? The hull?
>>67188803
to block the spacewood to fuel the furnace that powers the engine
fuck, anon, do you have no idea how spaceships work?
>>67189066
I was more confused that people were confused about the axe. It just seemed like something that would stand the test of time. It's just a very useful thing to have.
Asking why a spaceship would have an axe is about as stupid as somebody asking why banks have human tellers when ATMs exist.
Electronics break.
>>67189270
My dad is married to Sigourney Weaver. So you're probably right.
>>67189276
A door? ? Some kind of power box? Some material you wouldnt be able to break though otherwise? Or you could, ya know, use it as a fucking weapon.
>>67188803
i know this meme is based on autism but it really fucking bothers me that it's a kind of half-assed autism that fails to ever consider the half-million dollar grand piano, crystal chandelier, and vintage book collection present on the very same spaceship. when you think about that other shit the fucking axe starts to make a lot of sense.
>>67189359
This. Could also be good for cutting tangled wires that are effectively useless. Or could be used when touched down on a planet full of material that can or should be cut down.
It being a manual tool is not the problem. Explain what exactly you would use a fire axe for on a spaceship that would not be easier with a sledge hammer.
>>67189408
>that whole part of the ship was a giant escape pod
>nothing was bolted down or securely placed
that annoyed the fuck out of me, made no sense
>>67189444
cutting a power line to something that is catastrophically malfunctioning
>>67189444
Something that would require upward force.
>>67189408
All of those things make the crew more comfortable, how exactly do they justify a fireaxe?
>>67189480
Magnets?
Or did they move around during the movie?
>>67189494
This would be done at a breaker box, not with an axe...
>>67189538
They show that escape pod crash and we see the inside of it later on with all the furniture and shit thrown about
>>67189507
>up
>space
choose one
>>67189444
A hammer is blunt, and only blunt. Axes are basically two in one. It can work as a bashing tool or a cutting tool, depending on the situation and which side you use.
>>67189596
Been way too long since I've seen it.
It is a pretty dumb move considering it was an escape pod. The books being all over the place would be one thing, but pianos are delicate motherfuckers.
>>67189533
Maybe a fireaxe makes some of them more comfortable.
>>67189621
>I've never heard of artificial gravity
>>67189682
There's no such thing?
>>67189066
>he think super space wooden axe can break open titanium diamond alloy bulkheads
>>67189593
And what if the breaker box is locked and you don't have immediate access to the key? Are you gonna tear it open with your fingernails?
>>67189444
protip: axes only have a sharp edge on one side
>many valid points are made for the validity of a fireaxe on a space ship
>people willfully ignore those points or disregard them without a second thought and pretend it's still useless
Of all of the controversies in Prometheus, I didn't even have the axe on the list. Thick cords can't cut themselves.
Should have just had a Katana on-board of you wanted to cut through stuff.
>>67189706
It's science fiction, anon. There's such thing.
>>67188803
The real question is the white devils being alive
>>67189772
>intersteller space travel exist
>never invented chemical batteries
>never invented portable generators
>never invented levers or pulleys
>>67189760
>locked breaker box
You deserve to killed by malfunctioning equipment.
>>67189002
holy shit where is it
>>67189862
This is the case with all movies. Look at some scifi stuff from the 80s or 90s. They have all this rwally advaned tech yet they're still using fat SDTV screens and brick mobile phones.
The lesson here? Never try and predict the future, because the real future will be WAY more advanced.Still no hoverboards though.
>>67189975
>The lesson here? Never try and predict the future
more like don't name dates, that's something sci fi writers figured out ages ago
You use it when the abortion machine breaks down.
>>67189257
>tfw no moot realdoll
>>67190010
Well they didn't, did they? Almost all sci-fi movies name dates. Back to Future 2 is a good example of this.
>Flying cars
>Hover boards
>Shoes with NO LACES!
Fuck you, Zemeckis.
>>67190108
pretty sure they did in aliens, so alien would be early 2100's
>>67189741
>Implying you'd be cutting through the hull
There's other shit you might have to cut like debris
>>67190144
>Intersteller space travel in 69 years
Not a chance. Alien is set in 2087.
>>67190157
anything not bolted down doesnt require cutting
if bolted down pillars goes flying that part of your ship isnt gonna be part of your ship anymore
>>67188803
After you take a fat ogre shit you need a space axe to cut the log into manageable pieces.
>>67190314
>Oh shit all this non bolted in machinery flew everywhere and now I can't get through this walk way to turn on auxiliary power
>Good thing an axe isn't useful in this situation
>>67191147
>none bolted machinery
have you never not been not on a on an airplane before?
>>67191207
This ship is a lot larger than an airplane.
What about vacuums. What about random shit that's around like computers?
You look at the ISS there's a ton of shit just floating around up there. Most of it's lightweight but still.
>>67191376
>he think there are things floating around in ISS
