I gravitated towards the Greens, eventually even joining the party itself.

The Linke is a party I grudgingly accept exists, but I've learned enough about DDR-history I can't bring myself to trust a party that was once the SED, a party leading the corrupt state apparatus ...

Some random thought I had today: What are your favourite ye olde SciFi-shows/movies? Please post!

(Also please note for any teenagers, "old" means old, not just "older then me". For example: The 90s were weird, not old. Everything older then the 90s is fine, though!)

I start with an old German classic, the 7 episode SciFi-show Raumschiff Orion. It reached record-breaking audience ratings of up to 56% and was axed because the head chief of German television at the time really hated science fiction or something

The show aired in 1966 just a couple days after the American start of Star Trek (and six years before Star Trek reached Germany).

Holy hell, looks like I vastly overestimated the interest in ScienceFiction on this forum!

Welp, obviously this means I have to make some extra effort.

Have this for now:

Disney's The Black Hole. The strangest movie Disney ever made, from 1979. That film gave me nightmares as a kid, but I still have strong nostalgic feelings about it. It's like someone had stuffed Star Wars, Odyssey 2001 and 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea into a blender and mixed everything up. The result is sometimes hilarious and sometimes terrifying. :allears:
