The Brides of Coanda

[Added by AI] And the groom is the inventor of the rocket (not Coanda, he only invented the jet engine -- nuance, JJ).

And thus was denied us such sci-fi porn classics as "Saturn Rockets into Venus" or "Great Balls of Bimbo Fire"

I am sooooo happy you caught my reference! I was thinking more of "The Bride of Dracula" and innumerable other grade BBB flicks I enjoyed as a kid.
Thank you AA. My erudition is not wasted after all. God bless.
I really think John Waters must've got into the genre. You know anythng? I am too busy to google at this juncture.

Hey, JJ, erudition is a terrible thing to waste.
I was not much into the Watery Oeuvre, it being a little to Divine for my tastes, but one on lines of "Bride of Dracula", i.e. a crapulicious sci-fi'ish something, would be his "Mutants of Paradise" [I think] which came out in the mid 80's??

I wish I knew, AA. By that time I had turned my attention to the finer things in life...

Actually, JJ, you're wrong -- Coanda only invented the jet engine, not the rocket. That was invented by Herman Oberth, a guy from Sighişoara.

Hermann O Birthed the rocket? Silly me and that Goddard guy! Maybe 0birth made the first one to lift off without a catapulting rocket...
