Has anyone else seen the gloriously bad early 1970's scifi movie Zardoz??? The one with Sean Connery giving a definitively rotten performance wearing bright-red leather hot pants? Well, I recently sat through the DVD and was struck by how closely the advanced/backward civilizations paralleled the divisions of human society in Wolfe's Urth. And the idea of keeping certain humans in stasis like poor Mamelta to be "unfrozen" or "decanted" at need. (Though properly speaking, that's on the Whorl not on Urth) I suggest this in a spirit of good humor, but some Lupines might enjoy watching "Zardoz" in the interests of research Pip In a message dated 1/18/2011 5:57:23 P.M.

In much the way one might enjoy hitting oneself repeatedly with a hammer -- because it feels SOOOOO good when you stop.

Greatest opening line ever! Giant floating head from the sky: "The gun is good, the penis is bad. The penis shoots seed, the gun brings death." I paraphrase. Starring Sean Connery as Burt Reynolds
