LASERs and holograms were new on the scene then, so they embraced it a little too much.
There is no sanctury hologram 3D effect was pointless to do when projecting 2D.

I love the let's get out of these wet clothes only to put them right back on 30 seconds later.
I think if a film was Rated R back then the expectation was you had better see some boobs!
And it is still my expectation. :thumbsup
And with that this thread is long past due for this...
Man I loved this movie when I was a kid, had many a good dream :love

Isn't Logan's Run rated PG?
Not with full frontal it wasn't.
Edited for TV sure.
Maybe I'm wrong but unedited there was pretty revealing nudity.
Just checked, Rated PG with boobage when released.
No way, Logans Run was PG. I saw it in theaters and I was 8.
Opps, just saw you caught that. I loved the novelization as well, read it constantly. It was an interesting combination of the screenplay and the original Phillip K. Dick source material. Had elements of both.

I think it was (and still is) PG. I remember watching it on HBO way back when and it wasn't rated R. I think they could get away with a lot more back then.
Edit: Oops beat me to it.
Well that's another reason why Logan's Run is great then and it's unquestionable...
Boobage without R rating. LOL
Boobage without R rating. LOL
It's a good example for a remake. Which you won't hear me say much.
Lots of source material yet to explore.
Actually, that was pretty common back in the '70's. When PG-13 rolled around after Gremlins and Temple of Doom, all quick boob shots went there. By the way, i am awaiting deliver this week of a Rylo working flame gun. Don't hate me.

I don't hate you. I already have one. It's awesome.
Phillip K. Dick?
The original novel was by George Clayton Johnson and William F. Nolan
The book was way different than the Movie and had some pretty cool concepts such as the computer that controlled everything underneath Crazy horse Mountain and Dome cities all over the world which were accessed via a tube train.
21 was the age for last day.
Johnson is doing Jessicas run which should be released shortly

Back then you could get away with a lot more in movies, then again now you can get away with a lot in a pg13 too :lol

I honestly can't explain why...at this point for me there's a certain camp/nostalgia fun in watching it more than anything. I love this damn movie!
