'Soylent Green is people!!'

A clip from the ending of the 1973 film "Soylent Green" directed by Richard Fleischer which starred Charlton Heston, Leigh Taylor-Young, Chuck Connors & Edward G. Robinson.

The year is 2022, and there are 40 million people in New York City alone. All of Earth's resources are depleted. Sustenance is provided by Soylent Corporation's wafers - the latest of which is known as Soylent Green.

If I ever get carried away on a stretcher I'm gonna shout this. Got to let the whole world know I'm a total nutcase.

The end credits being flowers with classical music is so fucking ominous after watching the old man die, makes me think he met the same fate.

This was my reaction when i read that a lab managed to grow meat from human tissue samples.

This, and "A dingo ate my baby", my two favorite cinematic lines ever.

"Someone once told me that success is when preparation meets with opportunity. So obviously the most important thing is to be prepared when the opportunity comes."

[davidstone]

Just another of Charlton Heston's classic lines!

Saw a commercial for Atheltic Greens which shows various people mixing a green powder into water, for an oh-so-healthy drink and the only thing that came to mind was this scene.

This movie hit it so right, new York today, extreme cold, and temperatures running up to 110 degrees, overpopulation, pandemic migraints worst crime, the present new York City a lot scarier
