Some good actors on the list, but few who are best known for genre. I think the most iconic from genre would be Roger Rabbit or Pee-Wee Herman if we stretch a little bit, but I was in a fabulous babe mood and went with Barbara Bach from Caveman. Complaints can be logged in the comments section.

Many happy returns to all the living on the list and to the dead, thanks for all the memories.
Prediction: In 1985, the political system will still be a system of nations with little political unity.
Reality: In the era Kahn is predicting, NATO and the Soviet bloc certainly show political unity. More than that, OPEC made its power felt in the 1970s in a big way, but it is never mentioned in his book. In his defense, Kahn might argue that the first two show military unity and the last economic unity, but he can't because he's dead, so the grade stands. Not mentioning OPEC is a big goose egg.
Looking one day ahead... INTO THE FUTURE!

complaining? who's complaining?
ReplyDeleteIra Levin also wrote a dystopian future novel called This Perfect day which I rather liked.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the recommendation, I'll see if the library has it.
