* I'm not sure of this, but I think that there has been at least one other SF movie made, if not at the same time that the book was being written, then at least in concert with the author of the book: the movie Destination Moon, based on a book by Heinlein (rocketship Galileo?), and filmed with Heinlein's active cooperation. Does anybody out there know more about this? I find myself unable to include "Dune" in this class of multi-media presentations, perhaps because Herbert's sequels have demonstrated to my satisfaction that he is no longer a writer of science-fiction... -Kieran A.

Please pardon if this is a deadly-old topic, but along the lines of Heinlein and Herbert contributing to movies based on novels, Philip K. Dick was consulted on "Bladerunner" (_Do_Androids_Dream_of_Electric_Sheep_). L S Chabot UUCP: ...decwrl!dec-rhea!dec-amber!chabot ARPA: ...chabot%amber.DEC@decwrl.ARPA
