I saw this back when it first came out but had forgotten most of it , now that my memory has been partially restored I now see elements of Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World, I wonder if the writers used that book as inspiration
There’s a Logan’s Run book and the movie kinda follows it. Except in the book, no one lives past 21. And there is no carousel and Logan and Jessica get on a rocket to the moon. 😊😊😊
In the Logan's run book you are terminated at 21. This film was made in 1976 and Michael York was born in 1942, making him 34 when he played the part. Jenny Agutter was 24 and Farrah Fawcett was 29.

@@czos9239 Hi CZ, you're correct, the film is 30, I was thinking of the book by William F. Nolan. In the book it's 21. You are correct, in the Hollywood 1976 version with Michael York and Jenny Aguter. I guess Hollywood wanted/needed older actors.
Who and who? Wow, I have no idea that the names of those actors ever are. I really don't care what their names are. (Except for about 1: Sean Connery. But he's gone now.)
Of all the crappy movies that get remade, I think Logan's Run would be excellent. A real budget for special effects. No need for a mall with Auntie Anne's pretzel to pass for the future.
Obviously it was the best the production crew could manage, the real robot would probably have action fast reflexes and speed, and was probably caught of guard cause he gave the game away. Instead of a confused runner being caught of guard by the killbot, this is the one time the killbot had to react to an enforcer, and it just happens to be the best enforcer thats ever been Least that's how I see it
I was born around the time this movie came out in the mid 70s. I have no more memory of this then I do of Star Wars or Jaws, but I sure feel old watching this.
0:40 Auntie Anne's Pretzel company was not started until 1988 according to Wiki. Odd that in this movie Auntie Anne's is still around in 2274 and in this assumed real mall location the movie was filmed in, Auntie Anne's appears to be operating 12 years before that company even started.
The most impressive special effect in this movie is Jenny Agutter's mini dress that seems to get shorter and shorter as the film progresses. CGI animation could never accomplish what her amazing legs do in that dress!
The only reason I care about Logan's run is Jenny Agutter. She made a deep impression on my young pubescent mind that has lasted decades. (and that nude girl in Life Force)
It helped that Michael York ordered her like a cheeseburger at a drive-thru, an adolescent fantasy par-sexcelence. I was 11 when this movie came out and she primed the pump for me, too. Her sexuality in Logan's Run was strong enough that she upstaged Farrah Fawcett's allure, and as I'm sure you remember FF was super-hot stuff at the time.
Logan's Run is not a dumb movie. It has ideas lots of them and it really hates the boomers free love attitude of the 70s. But its very dated looking and quite a few moments are silly. Even by the standards of the time.
This is a bit like my mental edit of the Lord of the Rings series. "See those owls we flew back from after throwing the ring into that big red pit thingy, let's just fly straight there after the party at Bell-End, job done". Of course, Bilbo's party would not be valid currently under covid regultions, and I'd expect Bilbo to be getting a stern talking to by some tiny doorstepping Sky TV/BBC wraiths. [This comment's relevance will date quickly :)]
i read this book before I saw the movie because I used to order a lot of books from Scholastic in elementary school. the movie seemed cheesy to me even back when I first saw it.
To be fair, the Baby Boomers were so aggressive towards older people I do imagine that some older people would fear that the Baby Boomers would systematically blow them up, but they gave them a fate worse than death, they placed their parents in retirement homes.

Car Wash was a great movie.
Carousel in logans run and head turning Reagan and vomiting in exorcist were the scariest memories for me from childhood

i feel i can't feel the era of the seventies ..its ...timeless ....its something that speaks to the fears of all societies
I'm an 80s baby and I love this movie!
I just got done watching this movie for the first time and I was really impressed that this movie holds up insanely well
Are you taking the piss?
No! Don't go in there! You don't have to die!

no cats good, but no dogs
totally not a life worth living

Also, turns out Sanctuary is Ft. Worth.
i love stuff like that
I love that there was an Auntie Anne's still around at that time.

Moral of the story: People need to see cats
As a very young kid born mid 70s this like one of my favorites.
Love this movie, I was 9 when me and my friend went see it at Westwood theatre in 76. Oh the world was great back then in Mesa Az
I was 12 in 1976. Loved this movie then and love it now. And yes I miss those days too
Wow, you're so old. What happened to the carousel?
Lol, like I said the world was way better back then, ppl too. Not so uptight.
Was born in mesa the hospital i was born in no longer exists
@@IMN602 what was the name of that hospital?
We can learn from this movie that dont take life for granted - 22nd century
that's not what it's about
To varying degrees it is what its about, life is a gift.
"Let's have sex"
The best line in the movie in my view. More associated these days with Quagmire from Family Guy.
Tinder in the 22nd century.
The only part that made me genuinely laugh
well she was on the circuit
Typical 70s lol
The Robot sounds like Klaus Schwab
Coincidence? I think NOT.
Klaus wants to be the evil robot

See: The Island (2005)
At least they had an Auntie Anne’s.
6:06 the pandemic in a nutshell.
Auntie Anne’s
Why was that in there? I’m so confused
I assume because that's in every Mall in the 1970s. They shot all the city scenes inside a Dallas mall. Maybe auntie Anne paid for the advertisement.
That's hilarious. Well at least we'll enjoy some pretzels in this dystopian future.
This movie was made in 1976, but the Auntie Annie's pretzel company didn't start till 1988, so that bit could not really have been in the movie
@@amandym1809 If you pause it, you'll see everyone is wearing modern clothes. It wasn't in the movie. They just inserted it.
2:37 That Paul Rudd just never seems to age.
He's really Michael Anderson, Jr., the director's son.
Good thing it ended when it did. At the rate her dress was disintegrating there wouldn't have been anything left if there had been one more scene
As a kid I remember being excited because I read Farrah Fawcett was in it, and then falling hard for Jenny Agutter when I saw it.
@@drewhanna28 what this clip did'nt show is a lizard crawled up her skirt
Who and who?
Wow, I have no idea that the names of those actors ever are. I really don't care what their names are. (Except for about 1: Sean Connery. But he's gone now.)
And I remember seeing people with the Farrah Fawcett beach towels from this movie...
Farrah's beauty wasn't all plasticized, polymer filled, tattooed or manually applied. So, of course this generation wouldn't know who she was.
"Well done, Austin!"
Computers sure were fragile back then. One wrong answer and everything goes haywire.
Another allegory of the cave type movie.
Of all the crappy movies that get remade, I think Logan's Run would be excellent. A real budget for special effects. No need for a mall with Auntie Anne's pretzel to pass for the future.
@DW11111nah, if an indie studio with a good budget does it, it could be great!
Anyone catch the quick escalator edit inside a modern day mall? So random.
That robot is hilarious
I don't know how this stiff Box managed to kill and freeze all the runners before.
Ikr, such a wierd film
Obviously it was the best the production crew could manage, the real robot would probably have action fast reflexes and speed, and was probably caught of guard cause he gave the game away. Instead of a confused runner being caught of guard by the killbot, this is the one time the killbot had to react to an enforcer, and it just happens to be the best enforcer thats ever been
Least that's how I see it
None of the previous runners had guns
Maybe it came from the same production line as the Daleks...
I think he had help from the Sleestaks.
Just more proof that you don't need terrific effects to make a swell flick.
This movie did have terrific effects for the 70's tho
@@sa1ntluke I mean, they're not terrible, but the next year was Star Wars, so they were certainly near the bottom of a big curve.

From Washington DC ( Lincoln Memorial) to Fort Worth, Texas (Water Gardens)
This movie reminds me of what’s happening now with coronavirus killing the elderly. Our past / history is being wiped out. 😔
Bullshit. But the propaganda is similar.
