I don't know how the reviews went, but I enjoyed the new
version of the Time Machine (2002, whatevs) better than the
George Pal original. I got it when it hit the 50 cent
remainder rack at the local store. I find gems in there but
lots of clinkers too. There was even a retro 'sky car'
in the Hallmark version of The Snow Queen.
And I consider that anything with airships in it is steampunk.
So the current Matrix knock-off called "Equilibrium" qualifies.
Wild Wild West of course, and the Michael Moorcock Captain Bastable
stories.
Not enough good s-f film being produced these days. The tools
are all there. But if you read about mother=mega-millionaire Peter
Jackson from Lord of the Rings, the only idea he has for a new
project is to remake King Kong.
