Yeah, Forbin Project is excellent, with intelligent characters and themes. I love older films about, or that depict, early computers or technology. I think Tron is actually pretty good in that respect too, perhaps due to the involvement of Alan Kay.

Logans Run! Loved this one too. Saw it 14 times. The effects are cheesy by today's standards but it doesn't really matter and somehow makes the movie even better.
I agree. Even aside from the effects, it's a very 70s looking film, but that's part of its charm, and the style seems to suit the 'idyllic', hedonistic society where it's set.
