| | The Irving G. Thalberg Memorial Award Nomination : Irwin Allen (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03) |
 | | Irwin Allen was a man of vision, one of the most creative people ever to produce, direct and write in the field of movies and television. |
 | | Allen deserves this award, for all the years he worked in the industry, and all the milestones he created, from the wonderful Documentary, The Sea Around Us, to the disaster films, Towering Inferno, Posideon Adventure, to the four series he did on TV in the sixties. |
 | | Irwin Allen over the course of several decades brought the very best entertainment imaginable to the screens and inspired a great many children to grow up to become historians, scientists, astronauts, engineers, pilots, actors, circus performers, character actors, special-effects professionals, columnists, oceanographers, and yes, even archeologists. |
