Do you have to have brain damage to find old science fiction movies watchable?
This film, for example, was an optical headache.
"Classic" science fiction sucks ass

this movie was excellent until they left the city, then it became a borefest. Still worth muddling through to see Jenny Agutter wander around in those tights
Levi Howard
Box was the most believable character in decades desu
Oliver Collins
Box reminded me of me irl when I worked as a government bureaucrat
Sebastian Wilson
loved it as a kid but watched it again a few years ago and boy did the FX not age well, that shit where just you just mat together film of explosions and film of sparks over your set and actors just isn't up to snuff anymore
Ryder Parker
How the fuck did that thing come out a year before Star Wars?
Austin Lopez
>TFW you're just trying to get sea greens and protein from the sea but there's only humans.
Lucas Brooks
they sure didn't invest any money in cutting edge fx like Lucas did with ILM
Liam Rogers
THX 1138 is better
Matthew Brown
the sets look amazing, who gives a fuck about the sfx when you have that
Jeremiah Cox
Like 60% of the sets were a shopping mall with shiny disco lights added on for effect
I could go to at least 2 places in my hometown and see the exact same thing.
Dylan Nguyen
shopping malls are comfy as fuck
Brayden Morales
If shopping malls are so comfy, why are they closing at a rapid pace across North America?
Dominic Fisher
because plebs don't appreciate comfy-core, they just want convenience
Ryan Mitchell
My uncle was a sound mixer on this film.
Samuel Reyes
That's true in many cases but Logan's Run is great, you utter plebeian.
Michael Evans

Ethan Nelson
There was still kino moments outside the city.

Star Wars changed everything user. It's easy to look past it now but goddamn the special effects were revolutionary
Christian Lewis
the special effects for 2001: A Space Odyssey from the 60s look better than Star Wars
Josiah Clark
Gabriel Stewart
Levi Gomez
Star Wars was retro as fuck, it gets a pass.

Why Nixon?

He was president shortly before the movie was made, possibly early into its production.

I love Jenny Agutter so yeah.

I feel like she's wearing too much clothing.

She's a very good actress.
Ethan Barnes
Literally the plot of Logan's Run is about how much young people suck so yeah
Levi Brown

Alexander Carter
You wish.
Jason Baker
You should put yourself on the circuit, OP. Set it to men only.
Oliver Hughes
It's funny how York did all those Kirk Cameron religious movies later in his career.

Brandon Baker
Welcome, humans!
I am ready for you! Fish, plankton, sea greens and protein from the sea. Fresh as harvest day. Overwhelming, am I not?
Lucas Nguyen
An American Werewolf in London, too.
Nathaniel Kelly
saw the RENEW part of this as a kid walking into my parents room when my dad was watching it.
fuck, I wish I caught him watching porn instead. scared the fuck out of me, and scarred me on a deep level for some reason. something about thinking about my own mortality, everyones mortalities, just a lot to unpack at once.
Benjamin Brown
>TFW you will NEVER be as overwhelming as Box.
Wyatt Baker
American movies from the 1970s often have this quality of drabness which resulted from a variety of things. The colorful styles of 1960s pop culture, avant-garde and documentary influences, bunch of other shit I can't remember. People just copying Cassavetes and Polanski. 2001 put it in some filmmakers' minds that science fiction should be serious and could be told without spectacle, so you have a lot of dull, visually uninteresting, or just very earthbound movies. Silent Running comes immediately to mind, but then consider that Star Wars and Alien were both made in the late 1970s and are beautiful. Alien's visuals relied entirely on quality art direction, photography, and set design. There are very few special effects or action sequences. And of course 2001 and A Clockwork Orange are both gorgeous. Watch more 1960s and 1970s dramas and art films though and the look of these other movies might grow on you. Sam Peckinpah comes to mind.

The neat thing about this movie is when you watch it in high definition all the clothes are see-through.
Asher Long
Tried watching it a few days ago, it was pretty boring. Was it special for its time?
Landon Ramirez
No, it wasn't. I'd give it a solid C+.
Ryan Gutierrez
A rape orgy at that. But it was the 70s so it was OK. The movie was rated PG. This was around the time Brooke Shields was posing nude in magazines even though she was only 12. She was also nude briefly in a George Burns movie around the same time.
Oliver Jones
It's not rape if you go into the rape room.
Blake Turner
Why were there penguins made of snow in the room with the shiny robot?
Jacob Watson
>Still worth muddling through to see Jenny Agutter wander around in those tights
not really
Luke Johnson
and to just see how it ends after getting invested
Xavier Murphy
My dad keeps making references to that movie. I guess it was something else at the time.
Wyatt Davis
The ending was shit though.
Caleb White
I liked it better that the book ending, where Sanctuary was the moon.
John Gonzalez
I knew I was forgetting something. Note the last minute or so of this counts as an ending spoiler if you pay close enough attention.

Also the original War of the Worlds has aged well.
Liam Green
>70s pedophile aesthetics
Yeah, no thanks.
John Anderson
>I cant taken leslie seriously
Surely you can.
