    Hey a Sci-Fi fan .... EXCELLENT!

    Welcome to the forum Gort - hey everyone, don't get this guy angry... there's no knowing what he will do!!! ;)

    "It is no concern of ours how you run your own planet, but if you threaten to extend your violence, this Earth of yours will be reduced to a burned-out cinder. Your choice is simple: join us and live in peace, or pursue your present course and face obliteration. We shall be waiting for your answer. The decision rests with you."

    Probably one of the most sensible films ever to have come out of America....

    Small world Gort - I must have been around that age myself. It makes you think. Mr Cookie and I recently got hold of a super duper remastered picture and sound version of this film. Watching it again relived all those great memories of it.

    Much better than the flying brains in "Fiend Without a Face....!"

    thank you all for the welcome.
    a little about myself.
    I've been maintaining the same garden for 30+ as part of my job, most days I'm on automatic pilot, & just get the job done, but just recently the powers that be are asking me do to other things:mad:, nothing stays the same I suppose.

    I'll post some pix up, when I have time

    Welcome to GC Gort,
    'This Island Earth' was in a class of it's own.
    I've been working on Autopilot for 40 years.:)
