Cause it's what we grew up with. For many of us it's what opened the door to science fiction, fantasy, appreciation for space and the future. It's fun to day dream occasionaly and to tell stories. And this was one of the best stories at the time.
yeah i grew up watching certain movies too but i wouldn't care if they changed.. i duno, maybe, but i doubt it.
hmm you know what, i think maybe certain current movies that I love, if like they came out 5 years from now totaly changed i would be mad.. eh anyways
