AAAAAGGGHH!!! I can’t believe I forgot those!!! [i]Forbidden Planet[/i], in particular, is one of my favorite films of all time (in particular, besides the excellent set design, tasteful direction, literate and well-done script (based on [i]The Tempest[/i] by Shakespeare) and cool animated effects from the Disney team for the “Id monster”, it’s got one of the best soundtracks in sci-fi history)!!! DAG-NABBIT!!! I even had Robby the Robot go through my head when I was writing the post!!!!

That’s it. That’s the film you should consider. It’s great, it’s serious, it’s a space adventure, it’s everything you need, if you’re looking for a film.
