Wonderfully offbeat film!

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

I thought too that we would be living in Space Needle style homes, having food immediately made at the stroke of a button, a robot housekeeper, and a self-organizing wardrobe. While most things have stayed pretty much the same, the Jetsons was a futuristic version of the family featuring George and his wife, Jane Jetson, living a space needle designed home. They traveled space by motorized planes. Cars is non-existent and travel to other planets occurred regularly. Anyway, the show was a perfect companion piece to the Flintstones and both made by the same company. There was some interaction between the shows and the families differences but there were the similarities.

A poor step-sister to The Flintstones, The Jetsons never achieved the viewer ship or following that The Flintstones had achieved, which was why it was canceled after only one season. The downfall of the show was that is was not nearly as inventive as The Flinstones. Here, all you had to do was push a button and some robotic device would come out and clean the dinner table. The location is also vague. Where are they, and why are all the buildings elevated above the clouds? The characters weren't very inventive, aside from Rosie, and the other relationships were never fleshed out thus leaving the show sterile and antiseptic. Clever at times but not clever enough.

I first discovered The Jetsons when I was 7, and remember how much I loved it then, how funny I thought it was, and how clever all the gadgets were. Then, rediscovering it 10 years later, late night on a cartoons channel has brought about the same things as it had done before - laughter. This says to me that the show is hilarious for any age. Younger children can feel with Elroy's trials of school, and teenage girls can laugh and cry with Judy's boy troubles.I think the scripts were wrote brilliantly, and had a brilliant cast to voice the lines. I'd love to see The Jetsons brought back, because I think that even now - it'd be a big hit.

This show is pretty funny. One of the more amusing things about it is the venue- the World of the Future. Anyone who remembers (or has since studied) the future as it was imagined in 1962 will find a load of images here that will be familiar: personal service robots, flying cars, the push-button, fully automated workplace, the self cleaning house, automatic food dispensers, the works. And of course, highly-prominent were the star-fields of space, the "last frontier."This is the sort of stuff that was touted as being in our future at the Seattle World's Fair in 1962, the "Century 21" Exposition.As to the cartoon itself, it was amusing how the characters found themselves interacting with the technology of their time- the daughter blabbering on the phone, the son off pursuing his projects or grumbling about school, mom finding that the food dispenser requires a refill, dad returning from work moaning about how exhausted he is from a long hard day of pushing buttons, the bullying boss, and so on.In 1962, "Cen.21" touted the future as being, if not perfect, then at least far more congenial than the (then) present. The cartoon stated that this would not necessarily be so- and our own world of the 21st century has proven that the latter was more right than wrong, sociologically speaking at least.
