these films had more value because they were so elementary.. especially in the plot, i really these are films made just for kids, shrug.. and now that i am older.. i can't sit through this drivel.. there are some classic scenes sure but the reactions to profound events are so.. flat.. and unrealistic.. and that's what bugs me the most.. its only a scifi classic because of special effects for its time imo... not really the plot/acting.. three are fun parts of the movie don't get me wrong... but overall.. meh.
