Remake of Logan's Run

! & double !.

Jeebus where art thou.

I stand by pitch black as a perfect example of the sci fi b movie. Vin Deisel does well, as he is playing an emotionless killer.

I hated the tedious inevitability with which all the supporting cast were killed. Imam didn't seem too fussed about all those boys, did he? No tension, just 'action-adventure' at its worst.

like clockwork. Even to the cliche that the cowardly englishman got one of the most gruesome deaths.

Also, this is a scary alien, is it?

Cos it looks - it looks - like a cunt in a tinfoil box, mate.

I saw Logan's Run for the first time last night!

Great film, but.

Spoiler: ooo! I've never used spoiler codes properly before!

When he went back, I was sooo hoping for a bleak and dismal ending, with Logan's brutal slaughter brought down by his own fatally flawed optimism. And humankind relentlessly doomed.

I wasn't expecting a world-leading computer to bork because someone gave the wrong answer. And for everything to turn out all peaceful and happy and blah.

I wish melinda was still around

The series was very wooden but I'm guessing it managed to bring in some of the book's ideas? <orders book>

I don't think The Island rips it off especially - the theme of being stuck indoors and lied to about the outside world is very common.

 

[Stigmata]

The Island seems to be a fairly shameless rip-off of the B-movie Clonus.
