    Technically correct, but your comment makes it sound like the military is actively commissioning movies, which is not the case. When Hollywood wants to make historical or war movies, they have few options:

    • Buy the equipment - one military ship or airplane can be more than the whole movie’s budget.
    • Prop/CGI - may look bad and doesn’t guaranty to be cheaper.
    • Get all the gear for free, loaned out from the military (including training and specialists) - but they get to edit and approve your script.

    I wish there were more options for independent and critical movie makers.



  • I agree and I don’t understand why people like op keep bashing green parties. There’s a reason why nuclear is not a viable option. Ignoring the financial burden - Nuclear waste is not a technological issue, but a political one. People don’t trust politicians and corporations to keep it safe for multiple millennia. Look at the state of the UK rivers, chronical waste dumping to save money. People who don’t think it will happen with nuclear waste are delusional or don’t know their history, as we already had nuclear dumping incidents near Australia, Baltic Sea, Mediterranean Sea etc…
