Question about the Twilight Zone episode Nightmare at 20,000 Feet
Wouldn't it have been cool if Shatner said: "I've had it with these motherfucking gremlins on this motherfucking plane."

And another thing: Is this what led to outlawing firearms on planes? Just in case someone was crazy enough to shoot one at 20,000 feet.

ps: I apologize in advance for the spoilers but why the fuck did you view the thread if you were concerned about spoilers?

4. Yeah, that's what finally convinced me that airplane travel is a hoax, just like the moon landing.

9. Of course it's a hoax, why else did they do the first "flight" at Kill Devil Hills?
High sustained winds my ass.

They just wanted a place with no one around so they could fake some grainy photos.

7. Twilight Zone premiered seven years after Invasion of the Motherfucking Body Snatchers
So yes, it was a word.
