Review of Just Imagine (1930) by Craig C — 22 Oct 2013
What "Just Imagine" lacked in acting and plot, it made up for in art direction. Three years after Metropolis, its art deco city scapes anticipate the Flash Gordon / Buck Rogers serials, while the Martian set resembles an Emerald City prototype for The Wizard of Oz and the dancing girls anticipate Busby Berkeley.
The film's influence can be seen in Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow and the Chaotica episodes of Star Trek Voyager. For SF historians, a fascinating film.
