I'd ask if he could imagine a black president and what he thought of Charlie Parker's music...oh, and could he influence the Hollywood witch hunt trials to prevent Polonsky and others from being blacklisted.
I bet Helen was wearing the same red dress. It probably took all the patience Klaatu could muster to keep Gort from vaporizing Ms. Thomas.
"Klaatu Barada Nik... ah, fuck it."
Lock Martin must have been sweating like a bastard in that rubber suit.
My TDTESS Haiku:
"Go to him and say,
'Klaatu barada nikto,'
Or we are all fucked."
Has he lost his mind?
Can he see, or is he blind?
Can he walk at all?
Or if he moves, will he fall?
That one Gort!..go get 'er!
"Pssssst there's Helen Thomas with American News, MAJOR league asshole"
