Thank you to the above geeks for taking Snowflake to task - otherwise, I would have had to do it.

I'm a big fan of Forbidden Planet.

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

Quote:

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.

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.

Is Keanu Reeves playing Gort?

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??

The Very Last Remake of Beau Geste.
