Silent Running came out in 1972 and Star Wars came out in 1977, so it came out five years before star Wars.

This movie got pretty much standard promotion in Ohio USA when it came out and I went to see it. I am sorry it did not make them the money they craved at the beginning but everyone my age listened to me about it. We all of us went into studying environmental sciences and such. Quite a few very good movies were kind of blipped over, but hey. That was Ohio. They were not exactly playing to a bunch of very aware people!

When I saw this I was 10. I wanted to be Bruce Dern. Great actor.

Hold on there buddy. Both Running & Wall-E are great films with great soundtracks..You are kind of comparing apples & oranges there though . I mean Wall-E is essentially a kids film. So it can't afford to be to preachy. Since that would Alienate or even intimated the kids. Even John Ratzenberger said that. "We really should'nt bombard kids with messages"

Wall-E can't hold a candle to Silent Running. The script is clumsy, rushes to cover too much thematic space, mixes genres and dillutes its own message with the wrong kind of humor at the wrong time (probably thanks to Disney) and is embarrassingly OTN, especially at the end.
It COULD have been - SHOULD have been - a part of the Silent Running legacy. In the end, it just didn't take the topic seriously enough.

Bruce Dern being interviewed in his dystopian steampunk palace apparently. Also how the fuck does he look about 50 while Jack Nicolson looks like a monkey's paw found at the bottom of a swimming pool?

The film changed something in SI-FI as a film genre. I LOVE it it as sole and love.
I would now compare it to - MOON, film released in 2010.
Both great in their own right. You don't need a massive enfaces on special effects to tell a great story, these films advance not only SI-FI, but also film making in general.
Bruce Dern - FANTASTIC ACTOR!!! in all his films, I salute you Sir!
