Excellent Article! However, one detail . . .
John W. Campbell as editor of Astounding Science Fiction was a huge influence upon Science Fiction's Golden Age. In fact, Asimov had said of Mr. Campbell: "the most powerful force in science fiction ever, and for the first ten years of his editorship he dominated the field completely.".

Find out more about Mr. Campbell at Wikipedia:

Seek out Mr. Campbell's Anthologies in second-hand bookstores - you will be astounded at the foresight of the authors.

These stories of the Golden Age of Science Fiction have so many great ideas for films. It is hoped screenwriters would tap into that treasure trove for ideas.

Cheers!
