Thank you to the above geeks for taking Snowflake to task - otherwise, I would have had to do it. :evil: I'm a big fan of Forbidden Planet.

That said, I'm backing up Capt Jack, from Wikipedia:

The Forbidden Planet character Robby the Robot guest starred in two episodes: War of the Robots, and Condemned of Space. Robby was also designed by Robert Kino****a, who designed the Lost in Space robot nearly ten years later.

I didn't notice the error until your post after mine. I was too busy clicky-linky. :D

It is awesome to see the life-size versions of such great icons of geekster childhood. And for the record, I was at that screening, but spent my time enjoying the company of Robby and Gort.

Thank you, Snowflake for finding this!

Oh, and I have much trepidation about the upcoming remake of The Day the Earth Stood Still with Keanu Reaves.

I fear it may descend into Klaatu and Gort's Excellent Adventure.

You have GOT to be kidding?!!!! This is SO not to my liking.

CoasterMatt 01-26-2008 11:58 PM

Is Keanu Reeves playing Gort?

innerSpaceman 01-27-2008 12:13 AM

Forget Keanu stepping into the ill-fitting shoes of Michael Rennie ... the bigger problem is who's gonna play Raquel Welsh in the upcoming remake of Fantastic Voyage?


Follow-up question: What will be the very last film to be remade??

Boss Radio 01-27-2008 03:08 AM

The Very Last Remake of Beau Geste.
