8 fictieve bedrijven die buiten bedrijf zouden moeten zijn

Iedereen die bekend is met comics, films en video games, weet dat er een aantal fictieve bedrijven bestaan die niet goed in hun werk zijn. Sterker deze zouden allang gesloten moeten worden voor wanbeleid, Dagobert Duck?? is een dikke fail, net als Umbrella en The Daily Bugle. Dat zijn bekende namen, maar bij de mindere die hard geeks zal de naam Oceanic Air alleen bekend zijn uit Lost. Maar deze fictieve vliegtuig maatschappij is er een kleine vijftig jaar en heeft de nare gewoonte om neer te storten. De volledige lijst kan je overigens hier bekijken.


6) Oceanic Air, Lost

Good old Oceanic Air will fly you to anyplace you want to go, assuming you only want to go to a pile of flaming wreckage. Hang on there! We know what you are thinking, that crashing twice on the same island in Lost was not their fault! Sure, the island made them crash... but it made them crash because Oceanic Air is cursed. The first episode of Lost was not the first time an Oceanic flight took a nosedive into the ground; they have been happily flying passengers into the afterlife since the '60s.

As far as we can tell, Oceanic Air made its TV debut by crashing an airplane in an episode of the 1964 series Flipper, and they haven't learned how to fly any better since then. Oceanic has blown up on TV, movies, comics, videogames and even British comic strip Alex. In the TV series Chuck, they were blown up by a missile. In Dead Island they crash into an island full of zombies. In Champions Online they are blown up by a magical storm. In 1996's film Executive Decision they get hijacked by terrorists and somehow they manage to get Steven Seagal killed. Try to blame all that on the island from Lost. We don't know how you can build an airline on top of an Indian cemetery, but these guys did it. Or maybe their captains should stop going to the Launchpad McQuack School of flying.
