Hey.
What are your favourite SF movies ever?
Here are mine, in no particular order:
Moon. Directed by Duncan Jones, David Bowie's son
Blade Runner. The first one, that is, though I enjoyed the 2049 too.
Brooding, noir. The book if anything is even better.
Logan' Run Yes I know, an oldie. But it sticks in the mind. Time is short.
.........and never more so than with Never Let me Go. An idyllic boarding school is where the spare-part clones grow up
Space Odyssey 2001. Yes I know computers evelved way beyond this stage
The Time Machine. Very innovative shooting for the, erm, time.
Alien. Despite all the prequels and sequels, this is still the absolute best
Quatermass and the Pit. Good and spooky.
Solaris The second one. How not to make first contact.
Ex Machina. Here, the CEO who plays Feletto really an absolute jerk, all said and done.
Agree or not? What are your favourites?
I like most sci-fi films to be honest but I think my fave one is probably Back To The Future. The first time I saw it I knew then that it would be one of those films that I would watch over and over again and indeed it did.
Other sci-fi films I like are Star Trek, Men In Black, The Matrix and The Martian and Star Wars films
Me too - I love the way the story progresses. I've never seen Back to the Future 2 - it always seemed so dark and miserable.
I know right! It's just such a really good film and story. I didn't bother with the second one either and I think there's a third one but didn't bother with that as well. I don't think either will even come close to being as good as the first
The Star Trek one with the whales is duty a great reminder that it is not necessarily all about us. As in we humans. Dolphins certainly have bigger brains than we do....
