I'll list my things tomorrow because I've got to get up early.

To me "No Time Like The Future" confirmed that you have the skills that Rod Serling demanded from writers and directors when he was producing (and sometimes writing) the original series of "The Twilight Zone".

Steven Spielberg's big break was on a similar show called "Rod Serling's Night Gallery" (in 1970).

Oh, I didn't realise that the film was screened at the cinema. That must have been so cool.

I love animation but I think it must be very difficult. I recently went to see Disney's "Snow White" at our local cinema. There were no children watching but there did seem to be a lot of university student age people. It is a great work of art that would have bankrupted Disney if it had failed. I believe it was the first feature length cartoon ever. A lot of people told Walt that he was crazy.
