"Anne Francis was hot!"

Sir, you obviously have monsters in your Id.

My dad took me to see "Forbidden Planet" during it's movie theater run. I would have been 7 at the time. It remains my favorite SciFi movie and was the first DVD I ever bought. I've had a weakness for Theremin music ever since.

The movie cast also included Earl Holliman who co-starred in Police Woman.

I recommend the movie to anyone who hasn't seen it. It's amazing what the special effects folks were able to do in 1956.

Bruce the Ocelot was hotter.

Oh, I had the privilege of watching - and enjoying - this motion picture in the theatre on a WIDE screen.

It's the only way.

Also, I have the original soundtrack on a CD.
