The SciFi Channel? Boo that!

Why can't the SciFi Channel just show old science fiction movies? The real cool funky ones from the 1950s with all the thinly veiled Cold War weirdness? Why do they insist on playing their own craptacular stuff that is so weak? Can we just see flicks like Kronos?
Or... Them?
When World's Collide?
Things to Come?
This Island Earth?
Forbidden Planet?

Why make your own stupid junk when there is already great stuff out there not being shown?
