coke or pepsi? coke.

disney or dreamworks? huh. i always like dreamwork’s stories and out-of-place concepts more (at least for their good movies like Prince of Egypt). but recently disney has appealed to me with moana and dreamworks had spouted up some.. Strange Shit. I’m goin with Disney this time. (honestly neither of them is my favorite animation studio but... you gotta give some admiration for their work like Hot Damn)

My question is: If you could trade one part of your life to someone else you love and care about, what would it be?

Summary: Following years in front line combat, a disgraced hero is posted to the remote ice plains of Pluto on her toughest mission yet: to oversee a small, dysfunctional research team.

Battle-scarred and bewildered, Commander Falconer only wants to return to the comfort of combat. Making life difficult for her are thrill-seeker and wannabe overachiever, Christy; enigmatic and prodigious Burney; and impulsive wrecking-ball and resident cyborg, Lowell.

Billions of miles from civilisation, and on the edge of infinity, the crew face insurmountable threats, meet unspeakable villains, and generally get on each others’ nerves.

Oh, and that war may be closer than Falconer thinks…
