When Worlds Collide (1951)

Hahaha...oh, the naivety of 50's sci-fi. Very entertaining movie, but utterly devoid of logic - which, of course, if half the fun of 50's sci-fi in the first place :D

As much as I enjoyed it, there seemed to be a lot of wasted potential there. Personally, I would have liked to see more of how the rest of the world was coping with doomsday, rather than just the happy-go-lucky scientists in the camp. Plus, there could be a whole other movie after they succeed in landing on Zyra. That's just a goldmine of possibilities...

I'm sure the forthcoming remake will make better use of the potential :rolleyes:
