A complete flop at the box-office though - which is why Hammer never tried it again. Available as a Best Buy with <i><b>When Dinosaurs Ruled the Earth</b></i> - can't get much better than that.<br /><a href="http://watchinghammer.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Watching Hammer</a>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4032450846239938332.post-68489524367311782842010-03-13T15:28:33.391-06:002010-03-13T15:28:33.391-06:00this IS a fun film but i've only ever liked Ja...this IS a fun film but i've only ever liked James Olson in one movie-The Andromeda Strain. he mostly creeps me out. and why does he get so pissed off at the space girl interrupting his space shower?...Prof. Grewbeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16132543249418576650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4032450846239938332.post-83161841605822158212010-03-12T08:16:41.923-06:002010-03-12T08:16:41.923-06:00@Jami--I hadn't thought of that, but perhaps y...@Jami--I hadn't thought of that, but perhaps you're right! During that brawl the Duke's twin gets to throw someone across the room wire-fu style, so I really can't complain. ;)<br /><br />@Mark Hodgson--I don't know about the whole soundtrack, but the excellent <a href="http://cosmobells.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Cosmobells</a> has for download the 2-volume "Hammer Films Music Collection" (<a href="http://cosmobells.blogspot.com/2008/10/hammer-film-music-collection.html" rel="nofollow">click here for that post</a>) which *does* include that groovy theme song! In fact, it was hearing that song on this collection that made me seek out MOON ZERO TWO in the first place! Check it out, and tell them the Vicar sent you!<br /><br />@Samuel--I didn't even think about the marked lack of robots in this flick, which just goes to prove your point--there's so much to enjoy, you don't even miss 'em. ;) Thanks for the kind words!The Vicar of VHShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06832137990485130735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4032450846239938332.post-9105179360108581002010-03-11T22:03:27.460-06:002010-03-11T22:03:27.460-06:00It looks like a classic of obsolete futurism, and ...It looks like a classic of obsolete futurism, and I don't see what the robots could add to the obvious hilarity.

Actually I'm kind of glad I saw it sans commentary first--I could enjoy the visuals on my own terms rather than having my reaction affected by snark. :) And the outfits in this flick *are* amazing. I wish monocles would come back in style!<br /><br />Hey, I just tumbled the connection between Moonopoly, the Monopoly Top Hat/monocle guy, and J. J. Hubbard here--the first time Kemp meets with the corporate overlord, he's actually PLAYING Moonopoly, and beating everyone. So I guess he's the Monopoly guy in the flesh?
