This is a heads-up from your beloved Baron!
On Sunday November 7 at 8:00 pm ET, Turner Classic Movies will be showing the recently refound and restored version of Metropolis, having restored to the film much of what had been lost earlier in the 20th century due to ham-handed executive meddling.
So, if you're a fan of the great grand-daddy of modern science fiction you'll be there on November 7th with popcorn in hand.
Metropolis
Metropolis - The Restoration
Metropolis Refound
Be there, or else.

Too bad the flying-saucer people probably wont be able to read english and will be lacking a sense of irony.
"...the epitaph for the planet, I remember, which he said should be carved in big letters in a wall of the Grand Canyon for the flying-saucer people to find, was this:
WE COULD HAVE SAVED IT BUT WE WERE TOO DOGGONE CHEAP"
--From Hocus Pocus by Kurt Vonnegut.
