aliens - Movie or TV film - full story happen on a military starship,


Almost 10 years ago I saw an English sci-fi film on a Hungarian TV channel.


The story was about a military mission started from Earth to an alien planet to destroy the whole race. The full story was happen on the same starship (mainly the conversations and the mood of the film was interesting). The leaders of the mission has only one eye, because one of their eye was exchanged to a special monocular computer interface. This interface was used to unlock secret codes.


On the way to the alien planet some type of malfunction happened, and also some solder died. Step by step more army man died, and at near to the end of film just a few people remained. They feel the mission in danger and tried to save the situation. Finally only one young solder remained alive who launched the nuclear bomb carried by the starship to destroy the planet where the ship arrived. Unfortunately the ship is arrived to the Earth, because one alien lived with them on the ship and she reversed the ship at the middle of their travel.



This enemy alien was looks like a normal man, because the aliens make surgical operations on one of their female specimen, and convert her to human like creature.


Does anybody know the title of this film?



Answer



I believe this was an episode of The Outer Limits entitled The Light Brigade.


Wil Wheaton did play the young cadet who (if I remember correctly) was only there because his father was a senior politician.

story identification - Animation: floating island, flying pests

At least 20 years ago I watched a short animated film which stuck in my mind. The whole thing was wordless, possibly European, and I'm pretty sure I didn't imagine it... It featured a flying island which was inhabited by some creatures who (in my memory) reminded me of the Moomins. The island was frequently bothered by large winged animals who swooped around, although I don't think they did any actual damage. At the end one of the moomin creatures suddenly gets a weird feeling, feels forced to climb to the top of the island and then plunges down a shaft right through the centre - only to emerge at the bottom as one of the flyers. Answer Skywhales from 1983. The story begins with a man warning the tribe of approaching skywhales. The drummers then warn everybody of the hunt as everyone get prepared to set "sail". Except one man is found in his home sleeping as the noise wake him up. He then gets ready and is about to take his weapon as he hesitates then decides ...

harry potter - Did Dolores Umbridge Have Any Association with Voldemort (or Death Eaters) before His Return?

I noticed that Dolores Umbridge was born during the first Wizarding War, so it's very likely she wasn't a Death Eater then (but she is pretty evil -- who knows?). After that Voldemort was not around in a way that could affect many people, and most wouldn't know he was planning to rise again. During that time, and up through Voldemort's return (in Goblet of Fire ), did Umbridge have any connection with the Death Eaters or with Voldemort? Was she doing what she did on her own, or was it because of an association with Voldemort or his allies? Answer Dolores Umbridge was definitely not a good person. However, as Sirius points out, "the world isn't split into good people and Death Eaters". Remember that he also says that he doesn't believe Umbridge to be a Death Eater, but that she's evil enough (or something like that). I think there are two strong reasons to believe that: Umbridge was proud to do everything according to the law, except when she trie...

aliens - Interstellar Zoo story

I vaguely remember this story from my childhood: it was about an interstellar zoo that came to Earth with lots of bizarre and unusual species, and humans would file through and gape at all the crazy looking creatures from other planets. The twist came at the end when the perspective shifted to the other side of the bars and we discovered that the "creatures" were traveling through space on a kind of safari. They thought they were the visitors and we were the animals. Neither side knew that the other side thought they were the zoo creatures. Answer Got it. Zoo, by Edward D. Hoch. Published in 1958.
