FLATIRON BOOKS
StockID: 117076 SKU: MAY241612
In the summer of 1982- eight science fiction films were released within six weeks of one another. E.T.- Tron- Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan- Conan the Barbarian- Blade Runner- Poltergeist- The Thing- and Mad Max: The Road Warrior changed the careers of some of Hollywood's now biggest names-altering the art of movie-making to this day. In The Future Was Now- Chris Nashawaty recounts the riotous genesis of these films- featuring an all-star cast of Hollywood luminaries and gadflies alike: Steven Spielberg- Ridley Scott- Nicholas Meyer- George Miller- and more. Taken as a whole- these films show a precarious turning-point in Hollywood history- when baffled film executives finally began to understand the potential of high-concept films with a rabid fanbase- merchandising potential- and endless possible sequels.
