I hate to disillusion you, but many 1950's sci-fi movies consisted of campy and cheap-jack silliness which did not scare a very young me. Examples: Godzilla amd Rodan; Tarantula; This Island Earth, The Blob, 20 Million Miles To Earth. Others were or at least kept you riveted to your seat such Forbidden Planet and the original The Thing.
@jackseward7779 3 күн бұрын
Back then, ten-year-old me thought that Godzilla looked just like a guy in a silly rubber suit, and I hoped he'd slaughter all the terrified people. Ditto sentiments for non-frightening Rodan.

Good list, there is of course room for differing opinions since this list is this person's opinion. However many of these are among my favorites as well, though I would never try to rank them.

Like your show and the variety of the subject matter but I wonder which came first the chicken or the egg… Your format and delivery is nearly identical to Dan Monroe’s Movie Music and Monsters. Just an observation …but one of you should change a bit so that both shows can grow an audience….. there’s lots of room for this kind of material.

This is my favorite Star Trek episode as well, but it does have some big plot holes. 1. Why did everybody forget that both ships had photon torpedoes? Nobody even mentions them. 2.Why would the doomsday machine leave any galaxy before it had consumed all of the hundreds of billions of rocky planets and moons in that galaxy? After all, there is a long, long, long distance between galaxies. 3. The time required for a machine a few miles long to consume a medium-sized rocky planet (consisting of 1.5 trillion cubic miles of rock and metals), would be unimaginably long. A throw-away line like "the machine was programmed to only spend a few weeks on each planet" could have bypassed this issue.

I assure you, the movie "From the Earth to the Moon" did not influence Arthur C. Clarke, who certainly read the book and was writing about space travel as an author and member of the British Interplanetary Society over a decade before. The first 2001 book was written while the movie was in production, (it was originally going to have Kubrick as a co-author) and the later 3 2001 books were written well after the movie. I've never seen this one, but the book was one of the first real books I ever read. You might be a bit overblown on the influences of these movies, we should enjoy them for what they are.

I think it would be interesting to explore other possible origins. I have a few thoughts that take it away from a doomsday machine that could change the way it would be viewed.

Tarantula was not only one of the best of this group, but it was also Clint Eastwood's debut performance (as an F-80 pilot). The Creature from the Black Lagoon was the best film ever made. I saw it when I was 8, and even the 3D bubbles scared the crap out of me.
@scifiandmore 12 күн бұрын
@stealthhumor Thank you for your comment. Tarantula was a fun movie. It scared me to death when I was a kid. Unfortunately I never had the opportunity to see Creature from the Black Lagoon in 3D in the theaters since I was born after it came out. But I do remember when I was a kid, there was a special on, this would have been the 70s, and they were running the Creature from the Black Lagoon on television in 3D. I remember my dad came home from work and he had gotten us the special paper framed 3D glassed to watch it on television. That's the closet I ever got to seeing it as it was meant to be seen in the theater. Thank you again for your comment, it is greatly appreciated. And, stay tuned, there is more Sci-Fi coming soon. Have a great day. Mike

Not very well-known is the alternate ending to The Day the Earth Stood Still. Helen is told to tell Gort, Klatu Barada Nicto, but when Gort approaches her, she says, “Oh shit, I forgot the words.” Then, Gort destroys the world and kills the human race.

I really hate the theory of fighting the Borg. Spock traced its course and it came from outside the galaxy. The Borg has nothing to do with it
@scifiandmore 12 күн бұрын
@ravenmoon5111 I agree. The Borg idea came up in the Beta Canon novels. And, honestly some of them are really good. But the Borg don't have to be the answer or the reason for everything unknown in the Star Trek Universe. In my opinion, sticking strictly to the specific episode of "The Doomsday Machine", Spock's assessment, was good enough for me. Sometimes it good to leave a little mystery in a story. Not everything needs a definitive explanation. Thank you for your comment, I hope you enjoyed our video, and stay tuned, there is more Sci-Fi to come. Have a great day. Mike

There are a couple of works that came out within a year of Quark that might have been inspired by Quark or at least have interesting similarities. The first is Mork & Mindy. Not only was Conrad Janis in both, but the remote communication aspect and relationship of the main character with his boss is nearly identical. The second is Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. The parallels between Marvin and Andy are fairly obvious. But, it seems a little too coincidental that the first comedic robot with deep character flaws was followed shortly by the second. Having seen every episode, I can say Quark is terrible in the best way possible.
@scifiandmore 12 күн бұрын
@indyspotes3310 Welcome back to the channel my friend. I was looking for something to incorporate Mork and Mindy into the Quark, beyond just my opinion. And I agree with your thought. I looked for something that was tangible to draw a connection between the two shows, specifically The Head and Orson. But I couldn't find anything that really linked the two, beside Conrad Janis being in both. Now I will say, Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy was not even on my radar. After I read your comment, it just hit me like it was so incredibly obvious and why didn't I think of that. When I was a kid, Quark was fun, but looking at it now, It's still fun, but I agree with how you put it, its terrible for all the right reasons. Anyway my friend, thank you for your comment, and stay tuned, there is more Sci-Fi to come. Have a great day. Mike

I remember watching Quark during its short run. Being 10 years old, I loved the silly humor. I found a few episodes on KZbin last year and revisiting it as an adult made me realize why it didn't last longer on network TV. I guess the audience of kids wasn't enough to make it successful.
@scifiandmore 12 күн бұрын
@nolarobert Thank you for your comment, and I hope you enjoyed our video. I was just replying to another similar comment, and I pretty much did the same thing as you did. The show was so much fun to see when I was a kid in the 70s. But I watched some of the episodes recently before doing this video, and I agree with you. As an adult, I still think its funny, but I can also see why it didn't last. Which is too bad. As I said in the video, I do think it had the potential to do a full 25 episode season, and at the time with Star Trek, Lost n Space, and other classic Sci-Fi in syndication, there was potential to keep it going longer. But also it did launch in a bad time slot, and during a bad ratings period for NBC, which didn't help at all. Thank you again for your comment, it is greatly appreciated. And, stay tuned, there is more Sci-Fi to come. Have a great day. Mike

There was a Star Trek story album I had as a kid that featured a story where the Enterprise comes across two massive starships fighting a battle. Both ships are completely automated and so advanced they can continually repair themselves and develop new weapons and defenses to ever stay in a stalemate. It reminded me a lot of The Doomsday Machine and Saberhagen's books.

9:09 That is not Robert Ryan. That is James 'Jimmy' Stewart who was a major movie star for decades. At the time TOS was in production, the producers could not have afforded hiring Jimmy Stewart even if he had been interested in doing Sci-Fi.
