Oh, they might still take you. Years of lugging around all those heavy GURPS books, and walking everywhere because you spent all your 'car money' on said books, have made you an ironman.

That's not an exaggeration.

I'd say rewatch it.

My take on it is that society cannot go forward without the dialectic. Hence the destruction of the Tabernacle will allow the death of the Eternals and free the brutals from their existence of oppression.

I said put it in a book called 'The Downfall of Dystopia'

BTW I'm not sure by saying 'so many fans' here, I mean, what is your definition of 'so many'... so far 2 have chimed their support of it, is this 'so many'?

I immediately thought of the movie, and that you were expanding on the Dystopian theme.

I love Zardoz...it's right up* there with Ice Pirates, Cherry 2000 and Time Bandits as a "guilty pleasure" movie that I don't mind going out of my way to watch.
