I expect the RT reviews to be a little more on the negative side than we might hope. I think high concept ideas are a harder sell than popcorn stuff like Avengers (which isn't saying it was bad in any way...) so I expect there to be a wider range of reactions, especially among the top critics, few of whom are nearly as smart as they think they are. We'll see, though.

This is true. I remember my parents going to see it when it first came out and they came home and told me it was crap. I watched it a year later on cable and hated it. Didn't watch it again for at least 10 years then I really enjoyed it. I think it's brilliant now. Waaaay ahead of its time and probably the most influential scifi movies of he past 30 Years for sure.

In 1993 the film was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".

Yea, well you were a little bit older than me. I was only 11 or 12 when i first saw it. I wasnt quite ready for "deep, thought provoking" Scifi being raised on Star Wars, Buck Rodgers and Battlestar Galactica.

Yeah, I'm sure that would have made a difference. It came out the summer between my junior and senior years.

Who needed thought provoking when you had Erin Grey in skin tight suits.
