  > Would a flop been able to give us such classic lines as "In, Through, Beyond"? And don't forget Ernest Borgnine! My elementary school library had the read-along picture book and it always stuck with me, so when I saw it on Hulu recently I had to give it a watch.

    Even in '79, Ernest looked old, but that's probably the youngest I've seen Robert Forster. I don't remember when I saw this compared to Star Wars, but I remember really liking the little robot with his beat up companion. I also remember my mom talking about being somewhat shocked by the gore when the "evil" robot used his spinning hands.

    If you make a PG movie without it being called PG, does that mean it's any less of a deviation from the G-rated content? Even the G-rated content wouldn't have had a rating as well, but these would have been noticeably different at the time.
