This is a must-grab for me. I can't wait! |

I wonder what the last appearance of the original Robby was before Fox sold it off as part of its big purge of props and costumes in the early 70s. |

I was just wondering because they're what's in the message after it was edited. It isn't like his hand landed heavily on the keyboard, entered those letters and then accidentally posted a message. There was an intentionally posted message that was later edited to say only "asdf". I thought I was missing some kind of code. I constantly find myself falling behind on all those abbreviations the kids use on that intraweb thingy, so I always check when I see what looks like a new one. Joe |

Your man will feel very 'close' to you if you share them with him, and also keep your mouth shut at the right times... Here's a sampling of men's favorite movies: Forbidden Planet One of the greatest science-fiction movies ever made, it has at leat four major virtues: (1) electronic music (in 1956), (2) a really splendid robot and (3) and (4) the breasts of Anne Francis.

| Has anyone else noticed that a good portion of the electronic score for this film was re-used... |
) Since WOR (later WWOR) was owned by RKO, they mostly ran films from the RKO library. I doubt I ever saw Forbidden Planet on The Million Dollar Movie, but there's a good chance I got my first look at King Kong while watching the show.

| I have the soundtrack to Forbidden Planet on original-release LP as well as a later release on CD on Crescendo Records. |
