Well from what I remember, actor John Schuck's character, (forget his name) is either suffering from impotency or erectile dysfunction (same thing?) and fears that he's "become a fag" and wants to commit suicide (hence the probably now banned lyrics to the original MASH theme). Fred Williamson played"Spearchucker

Oh I agree. The series did become more sanctimonious as time went on. I didn't watch the last four years or so. But the show moved consciously away from the misogyny of the original.

Alan Alda reportedly doesn't even like the original. As it stands, the movie may unintentionally reveal the misogyny, homophobia and racism lurking under the sanctimonious facade of the 60s generation.

She's a supporting player in the SciFi Classic "Colossus the Forbin Project". That was in the late sixties. That's all I got.

I agree mostly. I thought the recreations of the Discovery and HAL's CPU (from what we saw) was pretty good. The effects weren't great, just sturdy. I think Hyams was mostly a Hack in this genre.

I thought this film was a hack job and I still do. Good points: the special effects are a good callback to the original. A young and smokin Helen Mirren. John Lithgow doing his nervous flier bit from Twilight Zone The Movie. Kier Duella looking ageless and Douglass Rain bringing a tear to the eye as a revived, addled

Yeaaaahhhh…… No

OK you can't sit through a science fiction classic that doesn't have "Pew-Pew" but an eight year old can? So the eight year old is smarter right?

The butt hurt in some of these comments in response to a critic's dissenting opinion. Did I like CinTW? My response would be similar to commenting on JJ Abrams Trek movies (At least the first one). "I thought it was okay and I liked it. The fans? Not so much.
