Pinching the author’s name and the title of a book by H.G. Wells for a film called The Shape Of Things To Come made in 1979 is bad enough but rewriting the story and doing it badly is too f-ing much.

Scrappy New Year!
Do you ever get the urge to bang on a window where there’s a lit Xmas tree on show and yell: “Put those lights out! Don’t you know there’s a fuel crisis?”
I’m sure it’s something the Bossy Buggers would love a licence to do.
As long as they got a police escort to ensure they weren’t lynched by indignant taxpayers.
