It was the first science fiction movie that I saw, and after almost four decades, I still consider it a classic of the genre. It is an adventure that I can watch over and over again, and not ever get bored by it. <br /><br />Thanks for posting the Starlog Article about the film. I still have my own copy of that to this day.

Thanks for the comment and the clarification...Luis,<br />Thanks for the comment and the clarification! I haven't taken it out in years, so I bow to your recollection of it rather than mine. I did enjoy the sequel book, also. <br /><br />Kind of the same situation with the "Planet of the Apes" novel; when I bought it as a kid I was expecting a novelization of the movie, but it was the original novel with movie stills on the cover! All the other Apes books were novelizations, but the first one never had that, sadly.Frederickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11868719487717506764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8947125621377796711.post-39224013853556060542010-10-18T17:52:50.032-07:002010-10-18T17:52:50.032-07:00Live long and prosper!Live long and prosper!marciamarciamarciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16204687678428026224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8947125621377796711.post-3815593372376598382010-10-15T11:45:43.294-07:002010-10-15T11:45:43.294-07:00Thank you very much for the scans! Logan's Run...Thank you very much for the scans! Logan's Run is one of my favorite SF movies, I never saw it in theaters but saw it many times on TV and I now own the DVD. I must also correct you when you say you own the novelization, as there never was one. What there was was a reprint of the original novel with the cover being the movie poster, making it a movie tie-in not a novelization. I collect movie tie-ins AND novelizatons so I'm a stickler for these details.Luishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07631388281199815121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8947125621377796711.post-37788866123400737142010-09-28T12:40:35.105-07:002010-09-28T12:40:35.105-07:00Great catch on the vulcan salute.

I've seen the film many times and have always missed it.<br /><br />The film had quite an impact, and I recall many sci-fi convention goers dressed as Logan or Jessica. There was a vendor at the time that sold good replicas of the Sandman blaster, which would "fire" very realistically as they did in the movie. It used a butane torch insert available at Radio Shack, which was designed to power their portable soldering guns. <br /><br />There was an episode of "Columbo" of all things, which showed these guns in action. Columbo was investigating a murder at the sci-fi convention and he ran into a Logan & Jessica as well as Robby The Robot.<br /><br />Ah, the 70's. It all made so much sense then...<br /><br />Keep up the good work!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
