OSCAR SNUBS: The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951)

We're coming in this week like a flying saucer into Earth's atmosphere with a movie that's both way ahead of its time and also incredibly dated. Flying saucer movies could be a dime a dozen in the atomic age, but only a few managed to capture the public's imagination like this week's movie. This is the template for a lot of sci-fi to come, even though it suffers from some haphazard execution and some frankly terrible acting. Make sure you're on Gort's good side and don't get vaporized as we discuss The Day the Earth Stood Still on Have a Good Movie!
