Video: SF ships/structures size comparison

[DennisN]

Here's a nice video which is a size comparion of a great number of fictional structures from science fiction novels, movies and games. The video is called "FICTIONAL STARSHIPS Size COMPARISON" but it includes some structures I personally wouldn't call starships, but anyway...

Enjoy!

A bonus is that if you watch the entire clip it's in my opinion a pretty strong indication that you are a true SF nerd (yes, I watched the entire clip ).

FICTIONAL STARSHIPS Size COMPARISON

This was awesome. A lot of modeling going on there. I can’t imagine the time, research and energy that went into this.

I did notice a few ships were missing:
- C57-D from Forbidden Planet
- some historical ships like the Ark, Kontiki, USS Constitution, HMS Bounty...
- Nautilus fromTwenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea
- The Time Machine from both movies
- Roman Trireme from Ben Hur

Had a similar discussion with my son on the respective sizes of minifigure-scale Star Wars ships. He built the big Millennium Falcon, but that is relatively small on the scale of ships in the series:

I think you should declare a conflict of interest

For me, a selection of Culture ships: perhaps the GCU A Series Of Unlikely Explanations and GSV Empiricist and maybe an orbital.

Space Battleship Yamato?
Never heard of that one.

There’s a whole series of movies on it

Isn't that the same one that became Starblazers?

Why did you ask? It says so in the wiki article.

Obviously, you're right, I scanned the articles contents and didn't see that. Of course it was in the first line in the body text.

Thanks.
