Buck Rogers
1939
Voiceover: From somewhere in the skies above us come, from time to time, flaming discs and weird phenomena. What are they? Whence have they come?
Professor Huer: By means of a gas discovered by Professor Morgan, these two people have remained in suspended animation for five hundred years. Buck Rogers: Five hundred years? George 'Buddy' Wade: That makes me old enough to be my own great grandfather.
Buck Rogers: I don't understand, sir. Who is this man called Killer Kane? Professor Huer: He is the result of the stupidity of the men of your century. You failed to stamp out lawlessness and in the end the criminal became stronger than the law.
Killer Kane: And you are the men I made counsellors of Earth? I would be better served by this Buck Rogers who walked through your men as if they were children.
George 'Buddy' Wade: I wouldn't call Dr Huer exactly handsome, but I sure would give a lot to see his face right now. Buck Rogers: (laughs) I bet you would Buddy.
