Theme

This week’s theme is Retro Sci-Fi!
Specifically any science fiction from the 40’s - 60’s. It’s all about clunky robots, giant computers with dials, ray guns, and all the other old cheesy sci-fi tropes you can think of :)
There’s a bonus point if the image matches the media of that era, for example by including cheap effects, obvious costumes, blurry film or anything else you can think of.

Prompt for post image:

a 50s cinemascope movie still of a clunky robot with an blinking lights on it's chest, in a fake looking space ship, a pilot is flying the ship, scene is shot with 8mm film --ar 16:9 --v 6.0
The image turned out better than how I intended :)

    • Prompt Positive: A scene depicting a goofball comedy set in a 1930s retro-futuristic sci-fi world. The scene shows a group of quirky characters in exaggerated, humorous poses. They are dressed in a mix of vintage 1930s clothing and sci-fi elements, like oversized space helmets and ray guns. One character might be slipping on a banana peel, another trying to operate a malfunctioning robot, and another making a funny face. The background is a whimsical, brightly colored futuristic cityscape, with art deco buildings and flying cars. The atmosphere is light-hearted and playful, emphasizing the comedic aspect of the scene.
