I'm not a MST3K fan myself, but I'm not surprised they hassled the film - it appears to be more on the unique side, which isn't going to be for all audiences. It's supposed to arrive Friday, so if I w ... |

I enjoyed this unusual and 70's retro-sci-fi feel to this indy film. The only problem was an ending that is the definition of anticlimactic, but it's well worth seeing if you like trippy old films.

Fast forward a little bit - when Ro Man has to start making decisions (but he canNOT) I think you'll get into the swing of things! |

I have a thread like this on another board, but I thought we could use one here, particularly since I just found one I hadn't seen before from a band called Broken Bells that has Kate Mara in it:

Flag on the moon - how did it get there?
A great classic if you like crazy old sci-fi flicks with Tor Johnson, like me. |

For me, there was nothing to hold onto (though I am a Megan Fox fan). I was just a little too old for the toys, so I never got into any of the stuff related to it, and then I couldn't tell the good gu ... |

I just ordered a cut-rate DVD of this Peter Fonda-directed sci-fi flick. I've heard about it for years, and I hope that it lives up to it's reputation as an interesting sci-fi flick.

I'm one of those who really rather like it. It's a fun fantasy flick, but the script falters at the end, where the film more or less stops rather than truly ends.

I like the look of the original series best but it's probably too dated for most (though Next Gen might be old enough now to seem dated to the people of today). As long as they have more adventure typ ... |

What time period would everybody like to see this be set in? I'd like either classic style continuity, or perhaps a brand new kind of continuity as radical as Next Generation was to classic Trek. |
