Query: This Island Earth - A Wow of a film.

This movie might not be of the calibre of 'The Day the Earth Stood Still', but it is certainly part of the canon of great sci-fi movies of the 20th century. The digital transfer has been wonderful (I lived off a VHS copy for 15 years), and it allowed a detail more reminiscent of its first release. To say that this movie was one i had waited for is an understatement - to say that it gives contemporary films a run for their money, is to state the obvious. A sign of the times is, I would have loved to see more extra features (like who is Rex Reason, and what about the color of the Metallunan's back on their home world?).
