The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951)

One of the all-time worst movies ever. I recently watched it for the first time and I couldn't believe the end was like, "Humans, don't nuke each other." What!?! I watched 93 minutes of this crap so you could lecture me at the end?! X| Yes, it's a good idea not to nuke each other. Thanks. :laugh: And pick up all your trash too. PS - Just trying to create some controversy for discussion but I'm serious about it being the worst.

Very true. I wonder if his version ends the same way. So lame. I wonder if his version had to keep the robot moving at 50mph or else it would nuke the world?

It was a milestone film of its time with some great acting. I agree the ending was poor by today's standards but it was an instant hit in its day, tapping into all the fear and paranoia that America endured after the war.

+5 for explaining it in context to the times. You're right with it being 1951 that makes sense. :thumbsup:

How about something very different: Dune.

Earth Girls Are Easy. Buckaroo Banzai. Capricorn One -- or is that a political thriller?

Chuck! Where's Aelita? And where's Solaris(either/any)?

[R Giskard Reventlov]

Oh yes - Capricorn One - great film.

I found Solaris to be interminably boring.

Oblivion. At least I thought it was fantastic.

Dark City[^] is a must see. It is near the top of my list.
