    I'd be worried a water drop could somehow reflect and focus the beam off your shaving mirror into your eye, or someone else's

    I mean it must be quite an intense IR beam to be able to slice through a hair.

      It needs a sequel. TBF though it wasn't on par with Event Horizon. There's another stranded in space film I liked better than either but can't remember the name of it.

        Is that really true?
        Yes, AtW shaves with a cossack cavalry sword.

          Urgh! I thought that was an awful film!!

          But a Pandorum sequel might be interesting. Would you set it on the new planet?

          Since watching Pandorum, I've always fancied getting one of those cool arm tattoos:

              It did sound a pile of nonsense to be honest...

                I call bulltulip. Lasers are a lot more power hungry than your typical high power LED, and these typically last tens of minutes even on massive Li-Ion cells .

                  Would have to I would think. Completely different (sub)genre, however! A sequel with yet another ship stuck in space might feel a little too "been there, done that".

                  As for Event Horizon, I just wanted to see what was on the other side of that gateway!

                    Was it Hell IIRC? Disappointing I felt.
