That one shot, teasing the inclusion of THAT batmobile in this film, makes me - for the first time - interested in seeing it.

Say whatever you will, I like 2010.
It's a thoughtful movie, maybe the best translation of Clarke to the screen.

The little girl in that photo with Edgar Bergen, Charlie Mc Carthy, and Mortimer Snerd looks more like Luana Patten, who appeared with them in the 1947 Disney release FUN AND FANCY FREE.
Candice Bergen at that time would only have been a year old.

OUTLAND is one of my favorite movies. Sean Connery and Frances Sternhagen aree really good. I thought the ending was a little weak compared to the rest of the movie.
A little weak!?

hey dragon. Good to find a fellow Outland fan.
Yeah, somewhat of a weak ending, it is not terrible though. And so much of the rest of the film is so well done. It is indeed built off a well worn western template, but it is put together so well, and so well crafted and cast, and of course, well scored. It works like gangbusters. Connery, Sternhagen and Peter Boyle are all really excellent here. It is one of the few R rated science fiction pictures that is neither cartoon Star Wars, nor far out fantasy stuff, instead sticking to the future as something grounded. The production design really making this picture hold together really well too.

Was outland not based on high noon in space?
Plenty of 50s westerns finish with serial killers getting rather feebly knocked out and disarmed by the hero with one punch.
