The birth of Robbie the Robot....I almost forgot to mention "Forbidden Planet" which had the best 1950s special effects ever put on film. Even by today's standards they don't look half bad.
Agree. I read 5 or 6 of the books and it was indeed epic. I can't help but draw a parallel between the conditions at the time in the "known universe" and the coming of Christ. Even the similar "Sardaukar Terror Troops" to the "Sardinian swordsmen".Something else.
Dune was by far the best sci-fi space movie of all time. The problem with it was that it attempted to portray a hundred pound novel in a couple of hours, and if you hadn't read the novel a lot of the story went over your head, which is why it was a bust at the box office. The story, the acting, the special effects (for the time when it was produced) were all first rate. Nothing else really comes close.
