Forbidden Planet: still definitively good after 50 years, with groundbreaking special effects and an intelligent story (based loosely on plot elements from The Tempest.) The Captain is played by Leslie Nielsen, showing that he can act in serious rÃƒÂ´les too. As I understand it, Leslie Nielsen started his acting career in serious dramatic roles. It wasn't until he did a guest appearance on MAS*H (as a Colonel who Hawkeye and Trapper gradually convince is losing his mind) that he started to turn more and more to comedic roles. ID: 599518 ·

That's an interesting list. Lots of films I haven't seen. I'd like to mention in particular: Forbidden Planet: still definitively good after 50 years, with groundbreaking special effects and an intelligent story (based loosely on plot elements from The Tempest.) The Captain is played by Leslie Nielsen, showing that he can act in serious rÃƒÂ´les too. Plan 9 from Outer Space: possibly the worst film ever, in any genre - inspirationally bad. I haven't seen Plan 9 From Outer Space, but it can not be as bad as Just Imagine filmed in 1930 set in 1980. (I watched it in 1980 on its 50th anniversary during an SF film marathon).

One he would like. Capitalize on this good fortune, one word can bring you round ... changes. ID: 622994 ·
