Less overtly colorful, but still futuristic in some senses. <br /><br />Grayson: The Forbidden Planet vibe is DEFINITELY here to a degree more so than the series proper. I see that too. Good observation. <br /><br />Lionel: Yeah, I've always thought it was inspired by Forbidden Planet too. Stories of a human dimension told against a cosmic backdrop.<br /><br />Best to all!<br />JohnJohn Kenneth Muirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15629979615332893780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12380553.post-78094083497173082102012-02-11T12:20:06.404-05:002012-02-11T12:20:06.404-05:00Well, Star Trek was inspired by Forbidden Planet, ...Well, <i>Star Trek</i> <b>was</b> inspired by <i>Forbidden Planet</i>, so, yeah, pretty much.Lionel Braithwaitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03024473793409118944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12380553.post-9716860529928335462012-02-10T19:49:44.032-05:002012-02-10T19:49:44.032-05:00Even more of a Forbidden Planet in 'The Cage&#...Even more of a <i><b>Forbidden Planet</b></i> in 'The Cage' than the series proper, no?Graysonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12380553.post-5136785617134556922012-02-10T18:49:05.463-05:002012-02-10T18:49:05.463-05:00You are right about "The Cage" having ma...You are right about "The Cage" having many elements being a more believable future than the series proper that would follow, such as the look of the bridge and a female number one.<br /><br />SGBAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
