Mention of Sark and the MCP too [goats.com] just gave me a flashback to the early 1980s when i watched a film projected on a wall in the Junior High School auditorium. At that time i'd had very few other science fiction movie experiences. The audio was crappy compared to an actual movie theater, but it was cool to see the worlds of Red and Blue on a twenty-foot screen. The plot and characters were mostly trivial; the visual experience was the thrill.
POLL: Which was more awesome for you during the early 1980s?
| 0% (0) | "Alien" (Ridley Scott was still interesting?) | |
| 12% (4) | "Aliens" (was James Cameron already trite but still able to produce fast-paced adventure movies?) | |
| 43% (14) | "Star Wars" episodes IV + V (the coolest job could have been as a bartender in Cloud City) | |
| 9% (3) | "Tron" (were we still young enough to be under the influence of Disney's wicked spells and enchantments?) | |
| 25% (8) | I'm too young to have seen any of those releases on a big screen during their first run. | |
| 9% (3) | I'm old enough to appreciate fine sausages. |
