Indeed, Riddick was a good character to get into. The games were beyond expectation as well.

So many other great scifi films though, naming television shows was way easier. P


Wow, Flight of the Navigator brings back some memories! I had to watch Pandorum a second time to really get with it, I like how they interpreted the "psychosis" aspect that some movies get into.

Compliance! hehe

Pandorum kind of reminded me of "Dawn of the Dead" on a spaceship, and had one of the best scifi movie endings ever imo

As far as cult classic scifi goes Message from Space has to be one of my all time favorites.

In hindsight, Chris Hansen should have popped out of the cut somewhere in that clip lol. And the end of Pandorum was good, but to me the freakiest part was the mass escape pod ejection. That is one fkd up way to go.

Aww man Solarbabies, haven't seen that old school gem in years.
That Robot Jox looks like some old school mech goodness, thanks for the recommendation.

Yea I loved SB when I was a kid. But Robot Jox was waaaaaay ahead of its time. And there isnt a mech based game that I play where it doesnt come to mind.

Blade Runner, hands down, no need even to say why. But best sci-fi/cyberpunk movie ever made ...ever.

Then Dune, Alien, Empire strikes back, Matrix, wrath of khan. But all pale in comparison to Blade Runner, period.

I'm in it for the money

What was it about the movie? Other than the fact it had probably the sexiest people around at that time as the cast lol. Young Harrison Ford, Darryl Hannah, Sean Young and Rutger Hauer.

Bounty hunter chasing androids in a dystopian world. A+ set. A+ script. A+ acting.

"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I've watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die."

I have to admit im impressed at how they stay solvent. I was flipping through channels last night and I saw some guy fishing get eaten by a giant flying lizard thing. LOL in school we used Sci Fi effects as a tool to know how we DONT want our 3D models to look. They do have good commercial graphic tiles tho lol
