Let's talk about Sci-Fi movies

[Midnight_choir_drunk]

Oblivion was way too similar of the movie "Moon" (2009)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1182345/?ref_=nv_sr_4

All the mainstreams tend to mediocre imo.

Some great movies that I would recommend
- Code 46
- Gattaca
- Source code

And the best for last
Space balls

I watched this movie about 15 years ago, I remember it being very interesting:
13th Floor - kindof a virtual world setting
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0139809/

Moon was a great film.

I can add off the top of my head "sunshine", "city of men" and "Primer" as great films.

When I was a teen, we watched 'they live' , 'inner space' and 'scanners' one after the other. But I guess not old enough for you?

Ah Inner Space ! I loved that... I think I have seen scanners as well... sounds familiar.

Older is often better... but 80's is still old

Can someone change the title of this thread to SciFi/fantasy, then we can continue?

so who pissed in your cereal?

Are you arguing with your self now ?

Don't be silly, we all know what the difference is, and this thread is about Sci Fi. If you want a fantasy thread make your own!

Are you arguing with your self now ?

It works, quite liberating actually

Prometheus?

The film gets a bad rap. But after my second watch I loved it.

Scanners - they telepathically do schit to each other. The first exploding head I seen ever.

I just thought this issue was settled yesterday.

Yeah but the lines blur with certain movies, so it may be SciFi but heads off into fantasy at some point. Or vice versa. So how would you categorise it then?

Things just got SciFi up in here

 

[ponder]

Managed to find The Thing from Another World (1951)

Scientists and American Air Force officials fend off a blood-thirsty alien organism
while at a remote arctic outpost.

Going to check it out this weekend

Seen the 2011 version, need to watch this one and the 1982 version.

You people are obviously forgetting the Alien franchise.

Let me just throw it in here . . .

Alien and Aliens only. The rest and the Alien-Predator angle were trainwrecks.

Think Imran lost his marbles. I blame sci-fi movies.

 

[Kosmik]

If you rewatch the Aliens movies before that it fits in very well. Almost a prequel

Don't disagree but the movie still felt pretty "meh" to me.

 

[satanboy]

that the judge dredd one? I thought that was terrible.

Agreed...sucked donkey balls.
