As you said, the Japanese get short shrift, and <i>Battlestar Galactica</i> and <i>Dr. Who</i> are ignored as well.<br /><br />Some are obviously chosen because they looked cool, others because they were imaginative, but there doesn't seem some sort of unifying scheme aside from the author's own fickle preferences.<br /><br />The TARDIS, the <i>Galactica</i>, the SDF-1/マクロス (<i>Macross</i>), and ヤマト (the <i>Yamato</i>) definitely deserve mention.<br /><br />The ones that did get mentioned... I have no idea why they're even there. The ships from <i>Coneheads</i>? The <i>USS Kelvin</i> but not the <i>Enterprise-D</i>? The Helium-3 Delivery Vessel from <i>Moon</i>? The infected ship from John Carpenter's <i>The Thing</i>? It's as if this guy were desperately reaching for things to fill his list, but totally ignored stuff that deserved to be on it.Dave Cesaranohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01454928720043301400noreply@blogger.com
