In Reply to: Mars Attacks! posted by Rod M on August 9, 1999 at 07:20:33:
I think I was watching VH1 because they've been doing the music of the 60's this week, and flipped 'Mars' on for a moment and caught the scene where the old lady is groovin on the 'phones in her listening chair while the martians sneek up behind her.Questions: they looked like the Byerdynamic 580's anyone know? Did you see the receiver? What was the music?
As you said, there were too many allusions to the classic sci-fi films to count. War of the Worlds, the Day the Earth Stood Still, Forbidden Planet...the Twlight Zone and Outer Limits to be sure, but the music on that thing...gosh I forget what it's called...NPR did a show on it a while back--the instrument and inventor--it's played by passing body parts thru a magnetic field I believe...giving that erie shimmering wavering tone...
Didn't watch the rest (too much violence). My idea of a good war film is "The Russians are comming, the Russians are comming" or for more serious fare, "Doctor Strangelove".
I'm wondering if it's time for me to buy a DVD player...they're nearly obsolete, aren't they? I waited till vinyl was dead to buy my TT, and waited for 24/96 DVD to get a primo CD outboard converter, totally missed out on lazerdisk, it died so fast it was gone before I even looked, so let me know when DVD is dead...should be any day now, right? If you plot it on log paper, the next format will be obsolete before they think of it.
Are the martians behind this?
