Lousiest Fictional Planet (not a poll)

[mainegreen]

My vote goes to Geidi Prime.

Heart plugs? Yuck!

:P

[SidneyCarton]

1. ditto, can you imagine the superfund cleanup Muad'dib had to order there?

[DS1]

2. LV-426

[montanto]

4. I'm gonna have to second LV-426

[Danger Mouse]

26. The winner. Bar none.

[KamaAina]

3. The Vogon world

worst poetry in the universe, plus they blew up Earth for a piddling little public works project. :eyes:

[Courtesy Flush]

5. Ork n/t

[Iggo]

6. Omicron Ceti 3.

I mean, am I right? Or what?

[mainegreen]

7. The Happy Spore Planet?

At least on LV-426 aliens explode out of your chest.

[pokerfan]

8. Heart plugs?

I read the first three novels and my memory must be failing me. What are heart plugs?

[mainegreen]

10. I'm not sure if it was in the book.

Either way, it was a plug Baron Harkonen had installed in everybody's chest. Pull the plug and all their blood pumped out.

[pokerfan]

13. David Lynch?

Speaking of abominations...

[Tommy_Carcetti]

9. Ceti Alpha V

They had pretty cool eels, though. So I guess it's not all that bad.

[pokerfan]

15. "You lie! On Ceti Alpha V there was life! A fair chance..."

[Phoonzang]

11. Sha Ka Ree from Star Trek 5

It's ugly, and the only thing on it is a wannabe god that runs around shooting lighting out of his eyes screaming "YOOOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!".

[DS1]

16. What, like Soulja Boy?

[Phoonzang]

17. You know....I never made the connection.

Who would have thought that Soulja Boy was such a huge nerd. :7

[Danger Mouse]

25. DO YOU HAVE A STAR-SHIP??????????

[newmajority]

27. Why.......does........God need a ......star....ship?

BONES: Damn it Jim. I'm a doctor, not a director! I can't save this horrible plot.
KIRK: Bones, you have to ....do...something. These...rogue....Vulcans...have....hijacked.....my franchise....er...my ship!!

[Danger Mouse]

28. SHATNER: I think we need more shots of Kirk scaling Devil's Peak...

and let's make sure to get some more shots of his sweet, sweet ass.

Letting Shatner direct...worst idea ever. Ever.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

58. How about a pushing-60-Uhura doing a fan dance?

I mean, had it been TOS, that would have been a totally different story.

[YankeyMCC]

12. The planet where the Robinson's lived the first season

I mean what a pain in the arse place, vegetables that grow out of control and attack, an orbit you can't predict, all sorts of unhelpful riff-raff dropping by.

[Ikonoklast]

70. Sounds like my old neighborhood.

[Bryan]

14. The planet Vulcan

The Science Academy tour is pretty cool, but downtown Vulcan City is totally dead. The strip clubs are topless-only, Starbucks is the only place to get coffee, and the voters in the suburbs keep shooting down referendum bond issues to improve the crappy bus system.

[LeftinOH]

18. Tralfamador: Completely useless unless you're in the tiny bubble with Montana Wildhack.

[realisticphish]

43. but if you're in the bubble

it ain't bad

[CrownPrinceBandar]

19. Pandora from "The Jesus Incident".......

not a very nice place.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Jesus_Incident

[mainegreen]

21. I love the books from that particular F Herbert 'universe'.

:thumbsup:

[Taverner]

20. That one the Sulaban come from

[east texas lib]

22. Dosadi , another Frank Herbert world.

When you lose a case in court, your lawyer(or "legume") and you both die.

[Orrex]

23. Alderaan.

Well, now, anyway.

[Critters2]

50. True enough. Being blown to smithereens sucks. nt

[Ptah]

24. Krypton

In the meantime, though it had for now survived the war, Krypton was scarred deeply by it.
The formerly lush garden world was burned and blasted, left mostly a lifeless desert.
In direct contrast to the society that had existed prior to the Clone Wars, a sterile,
emotionally dead civilization emerged. The population became isolated from one another,
living in widely separated technological citadels and shunning all personal, physical contact.
Procreation would then become a matter of selecting compatible genetic material which
would then be placed within an artificial womb called a "birthing matrix."
Any attempt to contact other worlds was forbidden, and the planetary government
maintained an isolationist stance, forbidding space exploration of any kind.

[kentauros]

29. From Harry Harrison's Deathworld trilogy

the planet Pyrrus

Telepathic plants and animals bent on killing the enemy/invaders, anyone? :scared:

[AlGore-08.com]

30. Earth's Moon from "Space 1999" - - that puppy defied the laws of physics!

It just frickin' zipped along from inhabited planet to inhabited planet every week.

[Art_from_Ark]

53. But those purple-haired moonbabes were pretty cool

[av8rdave]

31. Trantor...

The seat of the empire in Asimov's "Foundation" series.

It's enough to make you think of the Bush administration!

[DarkTirade]

32. I suspect that Star Wars' Coruscant was based on Trantor.

[av8rdave]

33. That thought has crossed my mind as well

When I saw it in the movie, I remember thinking that was just how I had imagined Trantor.

[DarkTirade]

35. Coruscant was thought up long before the prequels.

But obviously long after Trantor. :P

[Tikki]

34. Althea...the planet David Bowie fell ......

to Earth from......


Tikki

[elshiva]

36. Psychlo

[GreenPartyVoter]

37. Planet Hell, which was what the Trek crew called the eerie, barren set used for

so many away missions.

[Zhade]

38. The planets male "prophets" of the cult of Mormonism "rule" after they die.

NT!

[newmajority]

40. Those planets sound pretty cool, actually

You get to be God of your own planet and have celestial sex for eternity with as many goddess wives as you want. What could be better than that.

Actually Mormon theology explains a lot about why this world is so fucked up right now. Since Mormons believe that every time a baby is born on earth, a spirit baby is born in Heaven, and given that babies are born every second on earth, that would mean that Elohim our Heavenly Father is getting celestially laid 24/7.

No wonder He doesn't have time to answer prayers! O8)

[Orrex]

47. Who's name does Elohim call out at the, uh, climactic moment?

Or does he just talk to himself?

[Critters2]

48. At least they get to have sex with their celestial mate,

and they can decorate their respective planet anyway they want.

[qnr]

39. Dragon's Egg ... unless you like the pressure of living on a neutron star.

[China_cat]

41. Zeist

(no, not the one in Holland) from the Highlander II movie.

[DarkTirade]

42. Yeah, I'd hate to be from a planet that spawns nothing but badly convoluted plot,

horrific writing, and bad acting.

:P

[Guava Jelly]

56. You so way beat me to it!

I must concur and delete my dupe.:D

[realisticphish]

44. Skaro

(big surprise, looking at my avatar)

[DarkTirade]

60. What, just 'cause it's an irradiated wasteland populated by mutants

with two warring factions who won't let up for a moment, even though it means their inevitable destruction...

or because it's home to the Daleks after the Kaleds and Thals are all gone?

:P

[realisticphish]

66. well, if it's the former

than you're irradiated, on a wasteland planet. the latter, than you're exterminated. Either one kind of sucks :D

[DarkTirade]

69. I'd rather be irradiated than exterminated.

But not by a big margin. :P

[realisticphish]

71. true

you never know, you might grow something useful, like an extra foot :shrug:

[bluesbassman]

45. Crematoria

Don't forget your SPF 5000!

[Critters2]

46. Tattooine. It's like Las Vegas without....well, anything. nt

[Alexander]

68. In other words, it's like Phoenix.

[BlueDissenter]

49. How about.....

Miranda?

You either die or become a cannibal.

[ThoughtCriminal]

51. Natoo - Stargate SG-1

prison planet established by Sokhar as a literal hell for political enemies.

[jobendorfer]

52. Blodgett

Where the most popular chewing gum is called "cud", and yes, they really chew it.
Followed possibly by Phigerinadon II, but I'm reaching into the wayback machine here.

[behave]

54. space family robinson ditched on really drab looking planet

[Guava Jelly]

55. dupe

.

[Blue_Tires]

57. that planet from Futurama with the bouncing balls

We demand bouncing, followed by rolling, followed by bouncing of the third variety...

[LynneSin]

59. I would not want to live on the Forest Moon of Endor

Those Ewoks were damn annoying as hell - would not want a bunch of Teddy Bears as my neighbors!

[DarkTirade]

61. So live near a Gorax instead.

Won't be many ewoks about. :P

[SoxFan]

62. But those tree villages kick ass!

[mainegreen]

64. But they're so *cuuuuuuute*!

[SoxFan]

63. Horuz, aka Despayre

http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Despayre

It was covered by swamps and jungle, filled with criminals, and ravaged by vicious insects and killer reptiles. Basically, it's the Louisiana of the galaxy far, far, away.

Well, it was, that is. Grand Moff Tarkin decided to use it for target practice.

[Tikki]

65. My son made up a planet and....

the indigenous race on it when he was about 7 years old..

The Nardox from the planet Piroo..

But this is amazing not lousy...
Oh, and my son was the planet's super hero Artlon...


Tikki :)

[Zavulon]

67. Vendicar...

...and the other planet that was waging the theoretical war in Star Trek episode "A Taste of Armageddon."

[crim son]

72. Wow. I have no opinion whatsoever.

I haven't read science fiction since I was a preteen and I only watched the first Star Wars.
