Seems ironic that the U.S. has the funds for projects like these to destroy aircraft, while 149 commercial air traffic control towers were slated to be shut down due to the sequestration. Anti-drone tech is cool, but I'd prefer safe airports. http://www.ibtimes.com/air-traffic-control-towers-saved-sequester-now-1176097
Alright, I'm back. Ima gonna leave this here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hSVNbxjdvv8"]THE LAZER COLLECTION - YouTube ^(just in case one of you isn't one of the 13,544,639 that's already seen it) ^^((I like the Raisinets part myself)) So anyway, I'm wondering if there isn't a low tech way to defend against this "Laser". Like a cheap mirror from the Goodwill store, or something like that. And, why can't they color the dammed laser to look like Star Wars. I'm realy getting sick of the whole invisble laser thing.
3 minutes into the cartoon. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TcrAPqEYqDk"]Roadrunner and Coyote - Rushing Roulette - YouTube
The shit is pretty fucking scary...what was that movie where they accidentally roast a swath of the east coast with a satellite lazer? lol it was a comedy
"This video has been removed by the user." Must have been something in that cartoon that really worked as it's probably been forced off the info highway since yesteday when you posted it. ~And coming soon to a theater near you.. Frickin' drones with frickin' laser beams attached to their frickin' heads. I'm starting to wonder if that movie 'The Terminater' wasn't actually a documentary on the History Channel that was leaked from the future. With all the shit they've been doing since, and even before that movie came out that almost matches it perfectly, I'd swear that.. *BAM* -If you'll excuse me for a second.. some dude just kicked my door in and said he's looking for Sarah Connor..
Let's see if this video gets pulled too. Guess the U.S. military doesn't want the general public to know how much tax money it has wasted on ACME products that don't work. 3:12 into the cartoon. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lRsd34tgl24"]Road Runner & Wile E Coyote - Rushing Roulette - YouTube
3:43 into the cartoon was pretty much exactly was I was talking about. Also, I really liked the part (just before 3:43) where the coyote focused the beam on various things and vaporised them instantly, then parks the beam on the road while waiting for the road runner to show up. Not even the slightest puff of smoke from the roads surface while the beam was focused on it. And don't even get me started on the angle of the Sun to the glass. Man, I remember trying to watch those brain dead (attempted) remakes of the old classics way back then when I was still a kid and hating them for how stupid they were. I couldn't even finish watching the rest of the video after the part we're talking about here. ~end rant
Exactly, the animation direction sucks, timing is bad (not that you can tell with the frame-rates of those crappy videos, I can still see it), the backgrounds suck, everything about it is a cheap imitation... fritz freling should be embarrassed by that shit.
