The Axiom got mentioned in Future Metro’s list of ‘Cities You Can Never Leave’.

If there’s an articles thread, can the mods please merge this with it? Perhaps an articles/pictures/links thread can be created and stickied for Wall-E much like for Up.
Haha, that’s awesome. Though, technically, the humans did leave in the end.
I don’t think we’ve got an articles/links thread for WALL-E, though making one might be a good idea. I’ll have a quick search and see if I can find one, and if not I’ll make one. Though if I did find one, I doubt I’d be able to merge it. Still feeling like a bit of a n00b mod.
Thats cool that it was mentioned, but I’m not sure how that qualifies as a city. Because it partially acted like one? Besides, Robots or no robots, they would have to stay on the ship until they reached someplace that could sustain them. You cant just decide to leave a spaceship, cuz there’s really nowhere to go. Without a suit or shuttlecraft anyway.
That’s awesome how they talked about WALL-E. And it was placed in a list with a lot of other prestigious well known Sci-Fi books/films.
Hmmmm, Surprised they didn’t mention Ursula Le Guin’s “The Omelas”. True, there are those who walk away from it, but most of the population stays even with the knowledge of the horrific truth.
