Science Friction
Posted on June 22nd, 2005
Was flippin thru channels and stopped on 2001 : A Space Odyssey playing on TCM (yay, no commercials! We have it on DVD, but they’re already packed away for imminent moving). Just in time for the 15 minute trippy sequence and subsequent incomprehensible “aging” and “star fe (how the hell do you spell it?) feoutus featus feutus feotus (i bet on this last one)” anyway! Right. It doesn’t make too much sense, but that’s perfect.
Well, after that was Logan’s Run, which is much more cheesey but still pretty cool. And whenever I try to think of the name a specific other old sci-fi flick, i can never remember it… Umm….. Velocity? Speed? Time? Running? Damn. Well, Logan’s Run is cool, we have it on DVD.
After that was No Blade of Grass, which was a pretty depressing world anarchy scenario environmentalist flick based in England. It was pretty stark and distinctly unhappy. All about the descent from civility into chaos Nice. Was worth the watch.
