Learning the ropes...

Loc: Ozark
Humans had stopped using their bodies and their bodies became obsolete. So only the heads were kept and they were carried from place to place by androids. I'm not sure, but I believe that it was released in the 70s. This is driving me nuts and I desperately need to know the name of this movie. I would like to purchase it and show it to my daughter and grandson who also think that the only thing that needs to be used is their fingers to type on a keyboard, and their behinds, to sit in a chair. (I would have said their brain, but most of what they are looking up is so useless they probably only use .00005% for that)

Any help that you can give me with this one would be greatly appreciated.

Many Thanks
ozhawk

I'll put this here in hopes you catch it but I'll also drop you a PM about it. In 1984 there was a movie, a sciFi comedy called "Ice Pirates", starring Robert Urich, Mary Crosby, Ron Perelman, John Matusak and Angelica Huston. One Character in there was just a head and did, when not em-bodied, get his head carried around on a plate. I'd be leery of showing this to a young daughter though as this is the movie that also came up with the idea a a 'space herpe'.

Well, in the player area, even though his profile here says he's a player, I get no connection searching for ozhawk. Any help finding him? He's been a member since july this year so it's not like it's an ancient character I'm trying to contact.

He's probably like a lot of posters...asking for info, then never returns.

I have to agree...especially after nearly 7 yrs in the forums and 9˝ on the quiz side. You're the one right above me in posts, too, ren!
