Bladerunner (Directors cut)
The Thing both the original B&W and John Carpenters version
The day the Earth stood still (oldie but a goodie)
Forbidden Planet ( a really young Leslie Nielsen LOL )
Star Wars the first movie (cant help it, the awe of seeing it on the big screen and the effects back then were just AWSOME)
Serenity (offshoot of Firefly)
And please make a movie of Space Above and Beyond (awsome series only lasted one season)
Any Star Trek movie apart from the first one (They stuffed that up Royally)
Contact (and not because of the actress)
A space oddessey (both movies Dave)
A sea called Solaris ( I liked the original one better)

Aw heck just name one and I will give you my opinion.

Love ya Ess99

Silent Running

Silent Running is a gentle and rather poetic tale about the need to protect our environment - and how hugging trees overzealously can turn you into a real whacko.

Yes, I saw that movie. It is a bit like a modern version of Noah's Ark, I think, but much more credible. I loved the ending. It was very sad in a nice kind of way.

Of all those I think I like Equlibrium the best. At first when it started I was a bit skeptical, but as the film progressed I really got into it. The fight scenes were very good.

Okay, T1 was good too.
