Anyone seen a movie called Soylent Green?
 

I was wondering if anyone had seen this movie "Soylent Green" from 1973, Starring Charlton Heston.
Is it any good?

yes

very good film, recommend it.

Good movie, a classic.

The original film reel was made out of people... IT'S PEEEEEEOOOPLEEEEEE

Hell yeah its good! A classic! Crackers anyone?

It's interesting to watch the movie and then read the book that it was based on (Make Room! Make Room! by Harry Harrison). The funny thing is that in the book, soylent green is just another part of life. When it's revealed what it's made out of, the characters treat it as no big deal.

Wonder what tastes better, Soylent Green or The Stuff.

Heh...anyone seen the episode of Futurama where they make fun of this? It's the episode where they're at the Slurm Factory:


Fry: What if the secret ingrediant of Slurm is...People?!

Leela: They already have a soft drink like that. It's called Soylent Cola

Fry: Any good?

Leela: It varries from person to person


:p :D

I loved that one Return! I loved when Fry saw the slrum coming out of the queen slug and was like "Gross!" and then started drinking another one. Heh.

Hahaha. That and "Hell is Other Robots" have got to be my two favourite episodes:D

Yeah, I like the one with the evil Santa robot as well.

i love the robot devil, he's funny as... well... hell! and i liked that episode when fry was on the desert planet and finally the sun went down and it was cool, but then a HUGE sun rose right behind it.

Ah, the Robot Devil. Certainly a high point of the series. His songs always crack me up:D

all i remeber is a golden fiddle, the ending line "here in robot helllllllllllll", and, electric slime til the end of time.
