The "prophetic" movies of the past

People eat people, sounds like a Depeche Mode song riff.
The Omega man

I think Planet of the Apes, the original, has the most meaningful, thoughtful ending, and still a kool film after all these years, Tim Burton is a director of greatness and could have reworked a modern classic, but in my opinion failed. Tim is a genius Sleepy Hollow, Batman, The Corpse Bride.....all modern classics and kool.

Don't you think that the Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy (the actual device) was the internet before its time? Type in a word.......up comes the info! Just a thought.

well check out the h2g2 site douglas adams was big on the net before the net was big ^^

Douglas Adams was a God though, and his books were funny, the Hitchhikers film was ok, but thought the tv series was better. Or am I being Paranoid?

Now that was a classic series - anyone know if you can get it on DVD or VHS?

It was just, or is being shown on ITV 2 or 3, saw it advertised, but i found it a sad let down, to our Bernard Q, though John Mills was great, Quatermass and the Pit was outstanding.
