Epic Movie Time

by hattivatti • 5 Sep 2011, 18:57 • Journals
Shalom x-fuegos!

I'm bored and I would like to discuss some generic subject with you and I chose said subject to be: your favorite Sci-Fi movie!

While most will think of Star Wars I'd like you to dig deeper and maybe we can help each other by finding a few not so famous gems that we'll all enjoy.

I'll start by suggesting Serenity, the full-length spin-off of the fan-favorite TV show Firefly. While the movie tries to replace the 5-7 seasons of Firefly that were 'stolen' from the fans to explain the events, it is highly recommended, but not necessary to watch Firefly's 14 episodes before seeing the movie.

It's cliché, but I'd still have to go for Blade Runner.

It's a good one but I don't remember ever finishing it to be honest. The perks of watching movies as a help to fall asleep.

I definatily have to agree with Firefly, one of the most awesome sci-fi ive ever seen. To bad fox is so stupid and destroyed it...

I am still not sure about the film "serenity" itself, i saw the show before the film and the film doesn't summ it up as it needs to :(

I have to add (movies/shows):
Dune
Galactica (the newer one) Season 1-3

True and watching the show first makes sense since it's supposed be done that way. I think it's a good movie in itself, with a slightly different approach than the show. I think River's back story is explained quite well considering they had to combine it with an actual story in only ~2 hours.

Try Stargate Universe,its quite different from the original Stargate.
And I think thats why the stopped it after 2 Seasons :(

Moon, Sunshine, The matrix to name a few. Didn't think much of Serenity. Might be because I haven't watched the series.

+1 on all of these. I understand why many people wouldn't like Firefly because it's pretty low-key and works almost entirely due to the cast and their interactions and that's not everybody's style.

don't have much scifi experience, but i loved flash forward and 4400
▼
oxidFimS 5 Sep 2011, 20:53
4400 was the biggest bullsh*t ever created... :/
But flashforward is pretty good iven so its only slightly scifi.
Do they work on a second seasons flash forward ?

The Matrix by far not just as SciFi

when I was younger I watched a movie called "Enemy Mine". at that time I thought it was quite an ok sci-fi movie, but somehow I have a feeling that if I were to watch it now I would probably classify it as a 2nd rate a-team episode.
