… a few things about … THX’s history.
According to imdb, the theatrical version had a segment from the S/F-film “Things to Come” (1936). False …

It’s probably my fault, but that is no longer in IMDb, under Alternate Versions, where I challenged the credulity of that entry … effectively. 😄

Here is the present entry:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0066434/alternateversions
where there is nothing under the last line – “THX is attacked by new CGI shell dwellers at the end on his way out.

Here was a 2015 entry:
https://web.archive.org/web/20150329074845/http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0066434/alternateversions
with that wrong information as the last line – “In the original release the movie includes a one minute clip from Things to Come (1936) before the opening credits. When re-released in the late-1970’s this clip was replaced by a clip from the serial Buck Rogers (1939).

(sorry if this steps on anyone’s toes, here, who may have added that entry, there) 😃
