Doing Thing Right

I had my lunch a bit late today. While intending to allow myself to rest for a bit I switch on the TV and found this movie just started. It's called "SUPERNOVA", a year 2000 movie.

I find it very interesting when I notice this tiny piece of "message" came through as I decided to sit down and watch.

The medical spaceship receive a call from an 3 year-abandoned outer space mine. The captain cum pilot, after confirming the identification and careful considerations, has decided to make a dimension jump. While all crews must be safely sealed in a secured container, the captain cum pilot has without hesitance ordered everyone to take their position and taken the malfunction unit.

The ship however experienced some external impact and the programmed computer runs out of preset intelligence to handle such a situation. Without hesitance the co-pilot took the initiative to manage the critical situation but setting everything in manual mode although his colleague strong against that call. At last the co-pilot (who had become the pilot) successfully pulled the ship from crashing and managed to make other appropriate orders to engage the ship to be ready for further journey.

The one who sent them call, however, is actually the bad guy taking a disguise intending to make his way home to earth so that he could make a big fortune with the thing he got from the mine (after killing everyone). So he pretended and got on board then decided to kill everyone off when they are not tempted by the being rich proposal. The action has wasted 3 crew members (there were altogether 6) and only the co-pilot and the medical officer who had expel him from the ship and get killed by the mined material and made it through home.

There is a LEADER or CAPTAIN in everyone. It might not mean only leading others, but leading ourselves too. It is a quality that points out precisely and about what needs to be done at any given moment and doing it without hesitance . It is a quality that face obstacles and challenges not only with guts but also with the will to persevere to accomplish the task without fail. It is the core that writes the answer to all problems or thoughts.

It is the awareness of knowing exactly where does one stand.


p/s: James Spader who played the co-pilot was much more nice looking 9 years ago; and the bad guy was played by Peter Facinelli, one who acted the father of Robert Pattinson in the recent movie TWILIGHT.
