Goofs: Revealing mistakes: When THX is shouldered, naked, by the police in prison, we can see his short shorts tan line on his leg – pretty impossible for people in an underground city.
“George Lucas adapted this, his first film, from a short he made at University. THX 1138, LUH 3417, and SEN 5241 attempt to escape from a futuristic society located beneath the surface of the Earth. The society has outlawed sex, with drugs used to control the people. THX 1138 stops taking the drugs, and gets LUH 3417 pregnant. They are both thrown in jail where they meet SEN 5241 and start to plan their escape. Written by Colin Tinto <cst@imdb.com>”






Hello, Many thanks for putting such an interesting website on the web. I think you hav put some realy wonderful stuff on here and I discovered it to be one of the most useful I have come across. I hope you manage to keep it updated because I will be returning once again to have a another read.
Thanks for listing such a lot of movies on your site. We have watched loads of them now and we are really pleased with the content and the speed. Will you be including more films all the time? I see you have over 7000 now which is huge. I have never come across a website with so many to choose from. I hope you continue the good work.
I really savored THX 1138 and I consider the quality was remarkable. It was such a fabulous film I will probably watch it again later today or tomorrow. I think its just about the right duration for a feature movie and the story is very good right to the end. Thank you very much for putting it on your web site.
