Lounge of Tomorrow - Miscellaneous Movie Musings the Sequel

OK, if we're talking pre-Star Wars, Doug Trumbull did it in Silent Running. Lucas wanted him for Star Wars, but didn't get him. He did do effects for Blade Runner.

Humm... I'll have to go back and watch that again. Huey, dewy and Louie all seemed fairly recent models in my mind. I don't remember them being used models.

I don't know if that's the case. The Millennium Falcon seemed almost entirely mechanical. Really no ware that I recall seeing.

One of them does "break" in the film, and you can probably find other earlier examples of breaking new technology but I think Star Wars was the first sci-fi film to employ "wear" as an art direction design aesthetic.

Blade Runner- ok, not quite so off-the-beaten-path as she seems to think, but I suspect would be a fine show for the MoonCave.
