Retro SciFi Film of the Week…

Logan’s Run (1976)

The 1976 science fiction movie "Logan's Run" explores timeless themes of individualism versus collectivism through the lens of a utopian society where citizens are encouraged to prioritize pleasure over responsibility.

Director Michael Anderson creates a believable world featuring sleek architecture, intricate underground subways, and flashy laser guns. Throughout the film, characters confront ethical questions about sacrifice, morality, and mortality while embracing values like selflessness and altruism in their quest for survival. These ideas still resonate today because they speak to core issues of human identity formation and societal evolution that have persisted across centuries.

In conclusion, the visually stunning cinematography and groundbreaking visual effects combine with thought-provoking subject matter make "Logan's Run" a standalone work worth revisiting repeatedly. Its enduring value lies in challenging audiences to consider how far we should go in pursuit of happiness and longevity while respecting the dignity of every person along the way. Although some may dismiss "Logan's Run" due to perceived datedness or lackluster acting performances, the film remains culturally relevant for anyone interested in exploring intergenerational conflicts and the consequences of scientific progress run amok.

Enjoy your journey back in time!

The Thirty-Nine Articles, incorporated in the book of Common Prayer, are a much repeated, if waspish, expression of the Anglican Via Media. Catholics & Anabaptists are lambasted with relish. Five hundred years on, the Articles no longer codify the burning of Mennonites at Smithfield, but CofE parishes still use the Articles & Churches Together in England membership, as an exclusionary gatekeeper in a still anti-Anabaptist job market. So much for ecumenism! -NineArticles.

(, ): A that currently interests me a lot. Certainly not perfect, the woken teachings bother me. Apart from this super-teacherly fuss, the fall of the offers a fantastic foundation for great role-playing moments. Fantasy, history and everything in between paired with a rather simple system and a very strong theme that is as clear as it is open. Friday 13th Oct. 1307, you are one of the (, anyone?)… Survive. Enjoy.
