some of the dialogue was so bad that it makes this "comedy" actually funny

but this bit kind of balances it out:

“- Afanasy, if you were offered a planet with any kind of life, which one would you choose?
- One where beer is free.
- I would choose one like ours, but without wars or sources of tension. Where people live in peace and harmony, and don't hurt each other over trivial matters.”
(but the moody stare out of the window helped here a bit too)
