Today I've got a selection of colorful theater lobby cards from Toei Studios' interstellar epic,
Message From Space. As I've said before, I'm a big fan of this bonkers space opera, and I enjoy it completely without irony. Now that I own it on
DVD and I've had the opportunity to view it a few times, it's risen right up there with
Starcrash and
Battle Beyond The Stars as one of my favorite
Star Wars "rip-offs!"
Excellent! Thanks for posting these.
ReplyDeleteDang that looks like the Emperor's procession from Star Wars
ReplyDeleteI am so glad to have found someone who loves Message From Space as much as I do. I got a set of these lobby cards about 9 years ago. Your blog is excellent. I spent four hours one night reading all your posts. Thank you! Keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteI made this mashup of a Message of Space trailer using the original Star Wars trailer audio.
