You'll probably never see another Sci-Fi theme in the Our Gang film. This one seems to be a great idea in the Our Gang film. When Spanky, Buckwheat, Darla, Mickey, and Froggy watch a demonstration of a robot they decided to make one themselves. 2 local boy hear about it and decided to have a little fun with them. One of them gets into their robot and the other one convinces the gang that all they need is invisible rays for the robot. Watch has the robot has a mind of it's own (This was decades before The Terminator!)! A good short, it would be hard to imagine another Sci-Fi Our Gang short. After all, this was before the Cold War. There was War Of The Worlds radio show by Orson Wells, but that's another story. Anything that would look like 2001: A Space Odyssey, Planet Of The Apes, Rocky Horror, Picture Show, Star Wars, Alien, E.T., Little Shop Of Horrors, Mars Attacks!, and Men In Black wouldn't make a great Our Gang short. And I give it a pure 10 out of 10.
