To complement Tom-Hobbes' thread for upcoming movies, how about one to discuss old classics. Last night I watched a movie called:<br /><br /><b>First Spaceship on Venus</b> from 1960<br /><br />What a classic! A strange spool is discovered in the Tunguska region of Siberia. The world's greatest minds set about studying it and they discover it is an alien artifact that can only have come from Venus. A team of eight astronauts set off in the <i>Cosmostrator</i> (cool name for a spaceship), to discover the secrets of Venus. The film, apparently originally German but dubbed into English (one of the best dub jobs I've ever seen), has a multinational cast, and projects a future (1985) in which issues of race and nationality are a thing of the past. Zooming past the moon, through a meteor shower and on to Venus, they find the remains of a lost civilisation. <br /><br />Here is a picture of the Cosmostrator, which I got from this site: http://www.scifilm.org/reviews/spaceshipvenus.html - which has a review of the film as well. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>
