And Kubrick set out to update "Destination Moon", not create a psychedelic arthouse film nobody who's not on dope understands I suspect he was pre-empted by the success of Apollo as much as anybody. "Planet of the Apes" (PitA? ) was groundbreaking in its appliances, hard as it may be to believe now. I didn't expect there to be much crossover in audience from "ST" to "LiS" or "VttBotS" (I just refuse to retype that every time. One question, if the effects were applied to stories of sorcery and magic as opposed to sci-fi, would it have been received differently? Without Lucas, somebody else would have applied the effects, maybe a year or two later. He saw blue/green screen special effects had been perfected to make very real-looking presentations. When Lucas wanted to revive sci-fi, he wanted to do Flash Gordon but couldn't get the license. Horror/terror moved into the supernatural with Exorcist and similar stories. After all, the early seventies brought the Six Million Dollar Man as sci-fi. Being more near-term, it kept appeal after the real moon landings sort of deflated the appeal of far-future space adventures. Stanley Kubrick did 2001: A Space Odyssey in 1969. Lost in Space was from Irwin Allen, so the absence of Roddenberry would not have mattered. Star Trek, on the other hand, was billed as "the first adult space adventure" because it featured drama and character development. Lost in Space ran for three seasons, 1965 to 1968. (I don't think SF TV or film completely disappears because of this, in short.)Īnd just to be clear, if I've asked this already & simply don't recall it, feel free to lock this thread as pointless.

) It might butterfly "Stargate"(& so the TV series spinoffs), but maybe not that's late enough it might be made anyhow.
(It probably means "The Starlost" isn't, which is a net good thing. I also wonder if it doesn't mean the original "BSG" never gets picked up. Without Lucas, I don't see space opera getting a resurgence. I don't see "$6 Million Man" (or its spinoffs) being affected much. I have my doubts "UFO" or "Space: 1999" would be any bigger. I don't think "Twilight Zone" in the '60s could get any more influential. "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea" was fairly long-lived as it was, but IDK if it was a big hit. Given, IMO, "Lost in Space" never becomes a hit.
(That's just to eliminate any faux versions.) What might replace them? Suppose, then, Gene Roddenberry and George Lucas are both killed in unfortunate accidents. There's a lot of discussion about ending one or the other, but I don't recall any about the effect of both being butterflied away.
