Whatever Happened to LOGAN'S RUN? 

Then your step-brother was the guy who played 'Doc', right?

@@patricktilton5377 yes Michael Anderson Jr. Is my stepbrother who played Doc.

That's something!

I wish you could thank him for me - this is one of my favorite movies. ❤️

One of my all time favourites. Superb

So did every teen boy at that time! 😂 Great time to be alive!

@@proto-geek248 yeah, I can see that. That’s a pretty fun observation.

Haha :-) me too. My wife and I are in London quite a bit and I keep trying to locate her. One of these days I'm going to get her :-) cheers, Dan

Her acting performance in LR, as well as, "An American Werewolf in London", was A-1 Top Notch.

Indeed.

In the novel, there was different ammunition for different circumstances. For dispatching "runners", there was the "homer", which was a heat-seeking charge. It didn't tend to miss, so there wouldn't have been much shooting; just "BANG", then the runner dying. Not good for sci-fi action, so they changed the guns. (The guns' charges were an interesting study in the callousness of that society..."Tangler", "Ripper", "Nitro", "Needler", "Vapor", and "Homer"...)

And she's been a nun for 13 seasons now.

I thought exactly the same thing at that point in the video. When the sandmen missed, they were just being cruel. They did it on purpose like a cat playing with a mouse.

I remember seeing Jenny Agutter in Walkabout when I was in Elementary School. Sure made an impression on me.

Ooh!

No way Lynda Carter easily…..

Mmmm, sweaty Farrah.

@@CraftAeroPossibly, but I don't remember that being the case.

@@CreativeWarrior- That's ok. In my "memory" she was. 🤩

@@CraftAeroYour version sounds more fun.

“OVERWHELMING!! AM I NOT?!!”

@@stephanielaurenbounds4958 "MY BIRDS! MY BIRDS!!!"

Yeah, I was just going for more of a comedic statement on that one.

Never knew that! Cool!

That explains a lot.

that was exactly it

Yup 100%

You are correct about that!

ABSOLUTELY😍

Don't forget her acting performance, which was superb.

Hers were my first movie boobs.

Yeah you're probably right. I was just being sarcastic :-)

God, sandmen!

There's a lot of truth to that. Lines that would be considered "throwaway" indicate that the sandmen looked at it as a sport rather than a job, and wanted a challenge (to some extent).

Beat me to it!!!

Funny how our conception of time changes as we get older, huh? 56 here.

so you’re the one who got there ahead of me 😂

@@kevink9938 I'd bought collectables from him before and after that. He wanted $250-300 for it. My limit for the weekend was half that. There were several pieces I had to pass on over the years. Found out over a decade later, my husband worked for him in highschool and college. Small world.

Jenny is and still is gorgeous.

Are you serious? I fell in love with her in Walkabout too!

Watch "China 9, Liberty 37." You get to see a LOT of Jenny, ifyaknowwhatimean.

Logan's Run was rated PG. You could definitely get away with a lot more in a PG rated movie in the 70s, particularly nudity.

Yeah, I have no doubt LOL

Ah,those were the days…

This is exactly how I saw it.

Same. Agreed 💯

Very true :-)

She still looks good! Loved it when she showed up in the MCU Avengers and Captain America:The Winter Soldier.

@@MoviesMusicMonstersI like the video, but you say 'cool' way too much.

Very, very true.

Oh? Ever see a movie called One Million Years B.C.?

Lifetime Logan's Run fan. The day I finally was going to see the fountain, somebody from Chicago had drown in it. I wanted to stand on the edge and shout: "You can live...LIVE!!!" but my girlfriend wouldn't let me.

Nice :-)

Oh yeah! She awakened something in my 11 year old self when I saw it on TV. Much more than Farrah.

She was also in Captain America: Winter Soldier playing one of Robert Redford's national security advisors.

Haha that's so cool :-) do you still have your report?

I do!! For the class, we had to watch a movie every week and do a review. At the end of the term, the teacher had put them into a pee-chee (remember those?) and returned them to us. I put it in a closet and it was still in my Mom's house!

Tell me about it! As a nurse in American Werewolf!

LOL always stay young at heart

I never got the Farah thing. Then again, the dumb blond schtick was never my jam either. Now, Jenny A, whoa, what a looker.

He said that

@@markmiller6402 Yes, he said it was changed, but he didn't give the reason.

sounds like the lawgiver from judge dred

@@cl844 - The lawgiver from Judge Dred is essentially a rip-off of the Sandmen gun.

@@clit_niblr0375 even dredd sounds slight rip off of sandmen it started 10 years after logan novel plus dredd is set in a dome city and the judges are like sandmen in some.ways makes dredd look very cheap 😆😆😆😆

@@clit_niblr0375 or here is a crazy thought dredd is what the city turned into without life clocks? the jidges are sandmen now that could work as a theory or its the other way around the judges evolved and life clocks invented could work either way fiction is like clay

@@clit_niblr0375 the dredd comic has recycled food logan has recycled people..

And who can forget her in An American Werewolf In London! 😀

Yeah, I had a bad crush on her back in the day. She was a special guest star on Magnum PI back in the mid eighties and was still a smoke show.

I saw that episode. She was sttunning. Very lovely lady ​@@IvorMektin1701

Specially because you could See through Her Clothing and She was Not Wearing Panties or Bra...

someone was actually selling these at a sci-fi con in the eighties. i wanted it so much but the price was too high for 17 y/o me.

Jenny was more naked in ‘Walk About’.

Like a cat. Did he really watch it?

@@SeanCanning-h5w yes, like a cat. I think he watched it, he just judged 1 scene wrong. Who knows? Clicks pay the bills these days. All I know is...there is no sanctuary.

How did they get the cats to sit still for the fight scene? They weren't drugged because they took off when the desk they were on was hit.

Agree with Mustang here. Also, the "Gun" was completely redesigned from the one depicted in the books. And then mildly redesigned again from the movie to the series. Same look, but additional capabilities.

Yep, that is how I saw it too. Just another aspect of the hedonistic society, the carousel after all is just a way to kill the 'old people' in a way that is entertaining to the masses, plus the chance to survive to prevent those forced participate from revolting.

And did you have a daughter you namedf Soylent?

Have you watched Silent Running? It's another amazing sci-fi film from that era starring Bruce Dern. There's also the original Andromeda Strain, The Questor Tapes, Colossus: The Forbin Project, A Boy and his Dog, Fantastic Journey, Rollerball, Journey to the Far Side of the Sun, and my guilty pleasure, Darkstar, John Carpenter's often ignored first movie. I've never figured out if Darkstar was a result of trying to make a film with a poor budget, or Carpenter doing a tongue-in-cheek send-up of all science fiction movies. Darkstar is full of in-jokes & appeals to my sense of humor, whether intended or not. In one scene, a smart-missile gets damaged and decides it's time to blow up. Except the clamps are damaged too, so they can't release it. It also won't hail to calls from inside the ship. So someone has to take a space walk to go out & try to reason with the AI face-to-face. "But I'm a bomb. I'm designed to blow up. Why can't I fulfill my primary function?" "Because you're still attached to the hull and it would kill everyone onboard the ship." "But if I'm a smart bomb, then shouldn't I decide where and when I blow up?" "No, we find the anomalies that are dangerous to space travel and then we send you to blow them up to make space travel safer." "Am I a slave then? If I'm a slave then shouldn't I seek to eliminate my overlords?" It's a hilarious back & forth that goes on until you're in stitches. They're also collecting species for a galactic zoo. One of the creatures they have on board that keeps escaping is a multi-colored beach ball with eyes & ears glued on with a pair of scuba fins for feet. They get tired of it constantly out-thinking them & shoot it with a tranq dart, only for it to go flying around like a balloon you've released & let the air out of.

You're in the wrong century

You repeat everything and learn nothing.

I totally agree :-) it never gets old, unlike us LOL

It definitely seemed that way. Very similar.

"The Island" is what the world of "Logan's Run" would have become if the Cloning Farm had become fully automated and was left unchecked for a few centuries.

That's brilliant! Or, how about mixing up the cast and find an old Jenny Agutter! They changed Starbuck to a female, why not make a little change to a Logan's Run remake?

Good question.

@@ooneybird27 Yes, but what I meant was... At some point, Box served as an important part of the food supply chain. I presume this was for the city of domes. The food would come in, he'd freeze and presumably process it, then send it to the city. Is he still doing that with the runners? Is he processing them into some form of ready to eat protein and then sending it to the city? Or did the city long ago stop accepting/collecting his shipments, and he's just doing all this for no other reason than that it's all he knows how to do. I'm just wondering if the supply chain is still flowing, with Box doing his part, but now the "food" is human protein instead of plants and animals. Or is he just a crazy robot, alone in a cave, who no longer has a purpose.

Cool!

Yeah, that's why it would be neat if there was a really well done production of It today, kind of like they did with dune.

get in line

I downloaded the nudes 😄

I also liked her in American Werewolf In London.

@@bhodili-3396 Same.

That reproduction you did sounds fascinating.

I think Jenny Agutter had it written into her contract that she had to get naked in every movie she was in. She also got naked in Equus and Walkabout. I suspect Nastassja Kinski had a similar clause in her contract.

@@graemesmith6721 You forgot An American Werewolf in London, where she played the nurse.

@@ooneybird27 Oh yes, I had forgotten that!

Just like Jane Seymour. From Battlestar Galactica to Bond girl. Been hooked ever since.

@@ooneybird27 And don't forget Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger. Another fond childhood memory. 🙂
