MECO - MUSIC FROM THE BLACK HOLE.: http://youtu.be/WmV0v84KNrU NEVER AN ASTRONAUT LIKE THIS ONE. BADDER THAN BOWMAN! STRONGER THAN ARMSTRONG!
Seriously, I would actually WATCH a sci fi thing that combined Blaxploitation tropes with 70s-vinyl-futurism. #meco #SloMotionCrescentKicks
This is how futurism worked in the 70s; Star Wars gave us "lived in" sci-fi, and Mattel gave us SW action figures with shiny vinyl capes.
A little like how nobody thought to question the irony of using characters from a Star Wars beat up future to decorate shiny vans, either.
Star Trek TMP was still pretty 70s. I bet everyone in 70s utopian future San Francisco drove anti-grav-vans with shag carpeting...
... or regularly rode uncrowded beige/grey BART trains down to San Jose. *koffkoffkoff* #70sDesignAesthetic
CONACOP. HE'S HALF BARBARIAN. HALF MACHINE. ALL BASIL POLEDOURIS SOUNDTRACK.
CWRAHM. I HAVE NEVAH PRAYED TO YOU BEFORE BUT I ASK YOU NOW GRANT ME MY REVENGE! THANK YOU FOR YOUR COOPERATION.
When Thulsa Doom's legions destroy a Cimmerian village, a gnome tinker (Mako) resurrects its finest warrior as CONACOP.
