[QUOTE="Droopy, post: 390801, member: 6720"] I'm watching Tron on BBC2 (great film) and there's a scene where a guy is sitting in his office cubicle and I noticed that he had a banner pinned to the wall with the quote "Gort Klaatu Barada Nikto" which I thought was weird. Anyway I googled it and it turns out the phrase is from the 1951 film The Day The Earth Stood Still. Apparently the phrase is uttered to the robot Gort to stop him from destroying the earth! George Lucas must be a fan and used the film as inspiration for character names! Apologies if this is common knowledge but I thought it was an interesting little factoid. [/QUOTE]
