Yes, a nekkid Agutter. And also the thought that humanity dies a few weeks later from starvation. Doubtful The Old Man had enough walnuts for everyone, and I also doubt anyone would've thought to eat the cats. Laughs galore!

NONE OF YOU thought a plot about society managed by AI Computers to balance population by providing every wish fulfillment until you get executed when you get to old, to be the most interesting point of Logan's Run?

This was a movie I've always wanted to watch. Had it on my list for a long time and finally got around to it last night.
I really enjoyed it. It brought me back to when movies were made with a kind of innocence or naivete that I don't see much of today, if that makes any sense. The special effects, costumes, sets, etc, could never pass if
Logan's Run
were made today. As a movie-audience, we've become too sophisticated for our own good. We demand so much from our movie entertainment that studios are tripping over each other to put out blockbuster after blockbuster. We've become spoiled.
Logan's Run
harkens back to a time when good stories propelled a movie. Today, bad movies with bad stories get passed off as blockbusters if they mask their deficiencies with CGI and loud explosions.
Just my 2 cents. Oh, and the braless chicks sure didn't hurt. -

It's all about the almighty dollar. And Americans are much dumber than they've ever been, so movies with car chases and huge explosions without a story are popular. I bet there are millions of Americans who are waiting for the 18th "reboot" of Batman or Superman.

I guess for me it's nostalgia. The cheesy special effects and the ridiculous "futuristic" score are pretty entertaining.
For me, the movie starts to fall apart as soon as they leave the dome. Nothing happens. But you can see the shell of a really good story. -

I know. But there was a scene where Jessica's dress didn't cover her very well, and you could see her bare tush. People in the audience laughed, so it came off as funny instead of a turnon for them. Jessica was very pretty, and I guess I liked the fact she played hard to get until late in the movie. Well, I liked the futuristic sets and effects, but it still had a 1976 style to it. I have fond memories of that year. Pepsi Light - the diet soda with a super lemon flavor (Diet Pepsi with Lemon or Diet Coke With Lemon taste like dishwater in comparison). Pringles potato chips were first sold in 1976, if I remember right. Let me stop before I go off on a tangent for too long. I guess all the bra companies went out of business in the movie, before no woman wore one.

It's a delightfully campy oh-so-70's depiction of a bleak dystopian future. So it has a huge amount of vintage Me Decade kitschy charm.
You've seen Guy Standeven in something because the man was in everything.
