Apollo 18
2011 · Film · 86 min
Directed by Gonzalo López-Gallego
Officially, Apollo 17 was the last manned mission to the moon. But a year later in 1973, three American astronauts were sent on a secret mission to the moon funded by the US Department of Defense. What you are about to see is the actual footage which the astronauts captured on that mission. While NASA denies its authenticity, others say it's the real reason we've never gone back to the moon.

In 2013, Warner Brothers hired screenwriter Brian Miller to rewrite the script. Miller was the writer for the film Apollo 18, his most significant writing and production credit at that time. Other than the general concept, Miller did not use Erwin's work as the basis for his script.
Why Hollywood adaptations suck in three sentences.
It's been a few years ago now, but as I recall Apollo 18 did a pretty good job here.

BTW, if I were one to believe that the moon missions were faked, then I might consider the fact that we haven't been back in almost 50 years to be the best evidence for that. As in, "The reason why we haven't gone back is because we never went there to begin with!"
You can get a taste of that soviet lander towards the end of the (fiction) movie Apollo 18
If you had watched Apollo 18 (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1772240/) you would know what that rock is.
I imagine the idea is that this system should eventually lead to ads that the community actually likes - but I'll admit that doesn't seem to be happening. However, I think that most ads that reddit rages about are pretty terribe ads. For example, a recent ad for a movie (Apollo 18) was hated on because clicking on it sent you to a Facebook login page. That's no good since many people now can't learn about this movie through the ad without signing up for a different website.
Another example: I think there was a recent Microsoft ad that took you an unrelated webpage. Again, that ad is no good.
The community comments on these things because there have been a lot of terrible ads - ads that don't even let users learn about the product being advertised. However, it doesn't seem like this is actually leading to better ads...
