Sci-Fi Movies

[Procyon]

One movie I just have watched, liked and recommend is "Melancholia". I would call it a "sci-fi drama" movie, for Lars doesn't focus on the special effects, but on the human side of the eminent collision of Melancholia with Earth. If I could I'd rate it 10/10.

Looper is awesome. Probably one of the best sci-fi movies of 2012.

I saw the new Total Recall last week... Visually as well as aurally stunning... Kinda pity the rest was average at best. Watcheable and enjoyable to a certain degree but in the end just not good enough.

Dredd remake is awesome. Some scenes are trippy as fuck.

i agree, but better than i thought!

SO...............

When are they going to remake running man?

only a matter of time surley

hopefully it will be more like bachman (steven kings) book

even if it was just on the streets and not in a arena, could have the potential to be huge

Anyone seen Cloud Atlas yet?

[Penzoline]

No but I saw looper. It's very minimal scifi but brilliant nonetheless!

[Richpa]

Cloud Atlas is indeed beautiful, pretty much hard to watch because move is long and there are 6 stories which are interconnected, but acting, cgi, action scenes and story overall are very good. Still it's not good as V for Vandetta or The Matrix.

Looper is brilliant, perfect acting, great action, no CGI bullshit, good old 80's/90's sci-fi atmosphere and story is interesting too. Kudos to JGL for awesome acting, I loved how he managed to act young Bruce Willis so good.

I voted for THX 1138, Brazil, Aliens, Terminator and Predator, though it hurts to leave Solaris out. Soderbergh's Solaris film (2002) is very good, too - I missed that one on the list. Carpenter's The Thing (1982) cannot be left out, either! I liked Event Horizon, but it cannot compete with either of the aforementioned classics.

[Richpa]

Director of 'Children of Man' will direct Gravity. I'm really looking forward for this one too:

Interesting... The makers of this film certainly prove to have good taste, choosing this piece by Arvo Pärt for the soundtrack.

Looks promising. Hopefully it won't be in direction of Apollo-18

[Drosophila]

Hmmm haven't watched that one, but after watching the trailer I have to agree... well I actually try not to have any expectations to sci-fi movies, they tend to disappoint. Was just checking the director out on IMDB (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0179542/?ref_=tt_ov_dr), he hasn't really made anything "big"... seems like it can go all ways possible. But I like the idea of using Europa, it's weird it hasn't been done in big Hollywood feast!

 

the poster looks pretty shitty though

 

[Richpa]

Yeah, the director is pretty much 'unknown' but that's not a thing to be worried about, just remember how 'Moon' turned out to be one of the most epic sci-fi movies, even the director was unknown. I'm more worried about the storyline, it could easily to be 'something bad happened on Europa moon, we discovered new underwater bad-ass alien species'. Hopefully, it will be stylistic thriller with a pinch of horror, something like Sunshine with solid actors and good story. Already added this one to my bookmarks.

Regarding the poster - well yeah, a view from Europa moon towards Jupiter looks kinda cheesy ^^

so stoked!!!!

[Drosophila]

Looks cool exotic!! It's a long wait though

 

And Richpa you are right, the story smells a bit of bad-ass underwater alien meets human visitor... and that can easily go wrong. And about the cover motive is kinda cheezy but could have been made well, which they failed at doing if you ask me

Just saw this comment regarding Pacific Rim:

 

 

 

yea i heard i'ts like godzilla meets gundam vs evangelion and a burrito or something..

 

[Richpa]

Pity it went horrible on box office (at least in USA), it seems that people there still dig shitty movies like Grown Ups 2.

[Veracohr]

Saw Pacific Rim yesterday. Fucking awesome!
