Trivia section[edit]

How about just renaming it "Appearances by TV series stars"? That's all the "trivia" section contains anyhow. --Boradis 22:40, 26 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, I take the above back. This information is ALREADY included in the article's third paragraph! Per the article on Trivia sections, this should be simply removed. And I have done so. --Boradis 02:36, 27 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I personally think the info is a nugget of TV/film history and should be in there, but I think it should be in a trivia section at the bottom instead of the opening paragraph, which should just be a basic definition of what the film is.

But I don't care enought to mess around with it. Long as the plot can make sense to people who haven't already seen the movie, that's all that I give a rip about. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Rglong (talk • contribs) 03:36, 27 March 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Wikipedia policy is to NOT have trivia sections, except for very new articles that aren't really very organized. See this page. The information is supposed to be integrated into the body of the text, as was already done on this page. The trivia page here was both against Wikipedia guidelines and only contained redundant information. --Boradis 04:12, 27 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Can someone please translate into English the sentence : "going so far as to black out his school for his experiment on the time machine".JohnC (talk) 06:13, 19 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Other Media[edit]

I believe there were some novels, perhaps aimed at young readers, which took place after the events of the movie and there may have even been comic books or a graphic novel. Does anyone have any information on these items which can be added to the article? 66.110.6.119 (talk) 15:21, 5 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I know sequels were planned, I believe it was going to be a trilogy with Doctor Smith taking more opportunities to be nasty toward the Robinsons, a bit like what was planned with the original television series before Jonathan Harris mixed things up so his character wouldn't get killed off like all good villains do. Because of that, I don't believe Doctor Smith was going to survive beyond the 2nd movie. As the movie received a poor reception, they continued it as a comic series instead, I don't know much about it except that I believe Dark Horse comics handled it, all I've seen is a few covers. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.253.51.120 (talk) 22:15, 1 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

A quick seach for the comics previously mentioned reveals this: - http://www.darkhorse.com/Comics/97-709/Lost-in-Space-1-of-3 - http://www.darkhorse.com/Comics/97-711/Lost-in-Space-2-of-3 - http://www.darkhorse.com/Comics/97-715/Lost-in-Space-3-of-3 This should definetly be added as it clearly says they follow the film, with the same logo, costumes, robot design, etcetera, — Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.253.51.120 (talk) 22:19, 1 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
