My pleasure...I have only watched the trailer, but if their previous films are any indication, this film should be excellent :o)

Here's a Jagorothian spaceship that's about to undergo a
pre-cambrian explosion.

I call BS on this being the end of anything, there will always be debate on issues where the evidence is hundreds of millions of years old. Looks to be nicely photographed, however.

Not to worry, all the Darwinists will declare all the scientists non-scientists for such heresy.

Just a good as snapping ones finger and saying poof!!!! But actually I like the/a Martian better.
I was watching the Science channel a night or two ago about the Hubble and its origin. After the lens was fixed they were taking long exposures of a small, really kinda small, segment of the sky and in that segment there were thousands of galaxies. Yeah, I like the Martians.

Hey, I know, quote Darwin out of context! That'll really throw off the scientists!
(Hate to break it to you, in your 12th century goatherder's tent, but that's already been done ad nauseum by you types).
Of course the funny thing is that you don't believe the Cambrian explosion (530 million years ago) took place, since the world was only created at 9am on Oct 3, 4004 BC.

I know this may come as a surprise, but I'm pretty much sure that no scientific paradigm that has been overturned and replaced because of a movie. Generally there's a bunch of claims and counterclaims, research and review, and then a slow acceptance by an overwhelming majority of those working directly in a specific field. So despite the claim that the “film does more than demolish a defunct idea” and “offers the only alternative that does explain the sudden appearance of all the animal phyla”, I'll just stick with good old fashioned science. You know, the kind scientists do.

The Cambrian Explosion has been explained (I saw it on the Discovery or History channel, I think, maybe).
1. Oxygen, so much oxygen it made everything evolve into really much more complicated forms. (The Breathe Deeply Theory).
2. Never happened, it just looks like it did. (The David Copperfield Theory).
3. It happened over such long time “explosion” is a misnomer. The Slow Boom of Bloom Theory).
On the other hand, I, I would like to see the but probably won’t be able to.
Cheers for the heads up!
