I saw it as a kid. I remember thinking, that’s a pretty cool looking future. Everything is so clean, so prosperous, so modern. I wouldn’t want to overthrow that Leader. I’d want to live in his country. I was rooting for Allen to fail.
Yeah but in the film, they only showed the decadence of the elite, think Gavin Newsom at the French Laundry restaurant, where he and everybody else were not wearing a mask.
Saw it as a kid, too. Thought the Orgasmatron was interesting and its sound was hilarious. Same for his robot dog, Rags, and the whole robot impersonating scene.
I remember seeing it as a kid too and laughing really hard during those scenes with the giant fruit and pudding. I despise Allen for being a freak but he really did make some good movies.
