However there was plenty to like about 70's sci-fi and your site does a good job celebrating that. Keep up the fine work and hopefully some more 70's sci-fi continues to come out on DVD.Metal Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18400759786407810475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3893206653438189717.post-78793122571728128752012-11-03T09:34:49.597-04:002012-11-03T09:34:49.597-04:00Oddly, I have a good feeling about the next three ...Oddly, I have a good feeling about the next three Star Wars films.

Space 1970 helps to brighten up the long, wet British winters, and I look forward to reading your "snark free" posts on Rollerball and Soylent Green - two of my all-time favorites! By the way, now that Darth Vader lives with Mickey Mouse, do you think there's any chance that the REAL Star Wars TRILOGY will get the blu ray treatment?

Even today I find the Droids from Silent Running a more interesting Robotics story than the supposedly more serious treatments today. And- believe it or not- there is a group of stars in Virgo that amateur astronomers such as myself routinely show at our Public Astronomy nights or at School Math and Science Nights named after a special effect from Buck Rogers.

It includes a booklet with a little background on the film, and 25 minute or so retrospective feature called "Return to the Arena:The Making of Rollerball". In addition it has two commentary tracks (the US releases have only one), one with director Norman Jewison, and one with writer William Harrison. Harrison wrote the short story 'Roller Ball Murder' which the film is based on, as well as the screenplay. I got a copy a year or so back on ebay, for maybe US$10. I live in the US, by the way. Oh, as I look it up, it appears the R4 Australian "Special Edition" has the same features.Aaronnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3893206653438189717.post-21160397337678613562012-11-01T15:55:00.205-04:002012-11-01T15:55:00.205-04:00Looking forward to another great year (and more Sp...Looking forward to another great year (and more Space Babes)!
