Re: Klattu barada nicto!

I didn't mention Destination Moon and Rocketship XM because both films are good but they aren't SF classics by any stretch. Neither film actually deals with extra-terrestrial life forms or futuristic scientific concepts that hold up. Don't get me wrong, I like both films and view them with nostalgia, but I find both very dated and fairly unimaginative by today's standards.

As for the Alien box set, I doubt that I'll be purchasing it. Only the first two movies worked for me; IMHO, that was the story arc and what was done after is a travesty.

One additional note on Forbidden Planet: I believe that a 2 disc SE is planned later this year! If it contains a newly remastered transfer of the film (i.e., perhaps even Superbit), I'll probably have to buy it again.

SIGH!
