	Storer-Gulls Wings by Robert Heinlein from The Menace From Earth
		Storer-Gulls Wings by Robert Heinlein from The Menace From Earth
		Holly was born on the Moon; her hobbies are designing star-ships and flying in a natural cavern called "Bats' Cave", Luna City's air reservoir.
		Just as people on Earth use water reservoirs for recreation, so the people of Luna use the Bat's Cave for recreational flying, using specially designed bat's wings.

	washingtonpost.com: Entertainment Guide
		As directed by Roger Christian (a set decorator-turned director who did second-unit direction for "Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace"), "Battlefield Earth" is a third-rate sci-fi flick, full of laughable moments: scene transitions are signified by a cheap-looking, video-style "wipe" of the screen.
		And Psychlo aliens use such extraterrestrial turns of phrase as "Have you blown a head gasket?" The whole thing culminates with a sort of "James Bond"-derived storming of the fortress battle, full of shattering glass, explosions, laser fire and grunting Psychlos.
		But "Battlefield Earth" saves its scariest moment for the end: a virtual guarantee that there will be a sequel.

	Entertainment Weekly - Review of "Battlefield Earth"
		Battlefield Earth is based on a 1982 dystopian fantasy novel by L. Ron Hubbard, the late founder of Scientology.
		John Travolta, well known as a follower of Hubbard's, is one of the producers, but he claims that both the book and the movie have nothing to do with Scientology, and he may be right.
		Dismal as it is, "Battlefield Earth" is one of the few big-budget follies that actually inspired me to feel sorry for its star.

	E - Heinlein Concordance
		Emigration to other planets was strongly encouraged because Earth was overcrowded to the point where it could barely sustain the population.
		In Podkayne Fries' opinion, Earth was not truly suited to human habitation, and the human race probably didn't really originate there.
		Earth is part of an interplanetary system called an Empire but run as a constitutional monarchy complete with Parliament.

	Earth vs. the Flying Saucers (1956): Hugh Marlowe, Joan Taylor, Donald Curtis - PopMatters Film Review
		Among the several oddities in 1956 alien invasion B-movie Earth vs. the Flying Saucers, one stands out: its featureless, otherworldly flying discs, with retractable rayguns like satellite dishes on their underbellies, are a sum of all fears about flying saucers.
		The unnamed alien race in Earth vs. the Flying Saucers, after desecrating its native solar system, has come to pillage Earth and subjugate the planet's inhabitants, jealous as the aliens are of our planet's marvelous liberty, its Elysian fields and beaches.
		Earth vs. the Flying Saucers is full of oddly clairvoyant moments, prefiguring military misadventures that were the faintest daydreams in those days around the Korean War.

	Heinlein in Dimension, Chapter 5, Part 1
		Simply reading The Green Hills of Earth from cover to cover is enough to show that this is no more than a collection of stories, some of them quite good ones, that don't happen to have a whole lot to do with one another.
		For some idea of his method, let's take the short story "The Menace from Earth." The core of this story is human beings flying under their own power.
		Heinlein has by and large been able to build complex, consistent societies, the complexity coming from individual elements that fit together at the same time that they are used to further the story action.

		A story collection first published in 1959, The Menace from Earth has some nice moments; however, its tales are mostly pedestrian, and Rob McQuay's unpolished reading only makes them seem irritating.
		Even the book's title disappoints: The "Menace" sounds intriguing, but it is merely a beautiful woman whose presence on the moon distracts a young colonist from his girlfriend.
		The teenagers annoy with their brilliance, and the plot annoys with its story of the girl narrator discovering, after the introduction of a beautiful Earth woman, that her boy friend is really her boyfriend.

		Bio Menace is a typical but quite enjoyable early platformer by Apogee.
		Despite the cliché defeat-aliens-that-invade-Earth plot, Bio Menace offers huge levels, fun power-ups, and detailed EGA graphics that is a step above Commander Keen (the engine of which powers the game).
		This nuisance aside, Bio Menace is a fun shareware platformer that isn’t Apogee’s best, but is by no means their worst either.

		The makers of the film and its distributors maintain that "Battlefield Earth" has nothing whatsoever to do with the Church of Scientology and that it is intended to be nothing more than a big summer adventure, devoid of subterfuge.

		Their commitment to do whatever job needs to be done is put to the ultimate test when a bureaucrat asks them to make hay with the laws of gravity in order to pave the way for an ultra-important international business meeting on earth.
		In 'The Green Hills of Earth', the reader is given many short stories that deal with how the future might be, in respect to technology and sociology.

		If such a thing can be said to occur in a mammoth special effects film, The Phantom Menace was hand-crafted by Star Wars creator George Lucas, who wrote and directed.
		This means Lucas gets to fully indulge his fertile imagination, creating a spectacular visual treat packed with fully realized fantasy landscapes – including a phenomenal underwater city – and lifelike, computer-generated characters like Jar Jar Binks, the film’s designated comic relief.
		The weak link is Jake Lloyd, a generically bland actor who doesn’t project any of the intelligence or promise the story calls for – even his typical kid cries of "Yippee!" sound hollow.
