This is totally my well-educated and perfectly acceptable opinion at work here: space is boring.
Yeah, it’s pretty to look at and only via space can I tell which day of the week to buy a lottery ticket, but there’s not much to do up there. And if you did one day manage to get up there, what are you going to do? Float around? Implode? Both of those suggestions would seem to get old fast.
One thing that could make space much more interesting is rocket launchers. You could play the most realistic version of Asteroids ever. Sure, you’d have to wait 3-100 years between games, but that’s the price you pay for realism in video games.
I’d also love to fire a rocket launcher at the sun one day, just to see what would happen.

About “The Six Weddings of Vincent Frye”:
“I had been under the impression that marriage was something two people agreed to do, like going to a movie or getting a haircut. I had no idea that only one side could declare a marriage and it would be legally binding! I had seen weddings on television before. They seemed like fancy birthday parties for two people at at time. Presents and cake were involved too, so I wasn’t sure why people didn’t have weddings more often. Little did I know, weddings weren’t exactly what I thought they were. Somehow, I had gotten myself into a ’situation’ that had one ‘girl’ wanting to ‘marry’ me. I didn’t really mind, until there was another ‘girl’. And then another…”

Still the ever-lovable symbol of… something cute, the addition of a rocket launcher would give Hello Kitty much-needed appeal outside her normal demographic of all girls ever. The rocket launcher would be something of an accessory, much like the bow on her ear. I could even see Hello decorating her beloved rocket launcher with a bow of its own. Maybe two. People see the bow, they think ‘cute.’ People see the rocket launcher next to the bow, they think ‘don’t mess with the bow.’
As far as I can tell (I don’t know all that much about Hello Kitty), Hello doesn’t have any enemies in her world, so the rocket launcher would be more of a fashion statement than anything else. This would make sense, especially considering that Hello Kitty seems to exist solely for the purpose of merchandising. The Hello Kitty merchandising line only brings in over $1 billion in worldwide sales annually. Imagine how much higher that number could be if a rocket launcher was added to the mix.

Last night marked the first time Kid with a Rocket Launcher: The Fuzz of War had played at an animation festival in front of a live audience, at the “SoDak Animation Festival”, put on by South Dakota State University. It’s also showing this morning at their “Familymation Day”, which features some animated shorts that are kid-friendly. Essentially, The Fuzz of War can be considered a Saturday Morning Cartoon this morning :)
