I actually liked "Dark Star" and think it's a very good film -
and if it can still spout a load of discussion 20 years later it
can't be that bad.
Most of the discussion is how the existential bomb is the only good bit and the rest is crap. I agree entirely with this.
One last word on terrorism, The Nazis were terrorists of asort before they gained power though I thought it was the Communists who burned the Reichstag. They stopped being terrorists and became archetypal mad despots after gaining power. Just being completely accurate with definitions.

It was the Nazis who burn down the Reinstag, they then blamed the communist.
A communist was jailed for the crime - but I was told he was just a
scapegoat.
In dark star, I thought the best bit, was the talk with the dead captain
and trying to teach the bomb soloism... But that does imply more than
one good bit.
