Ahoy there 
Before I played Freelancer, (which pointed me in the direction of EvE in June '03) I was never much for sci-fi movies, or space games at all. Of course, this all changed after a few months of EvE, and now after over a year I'm a fulltime sci fi junkie !!
So, just wondering which movies you guys like to watch while playing eve, or just relaxing etc..
Some of the more recent ones that I've watched (some good, some bad)
Event Horizon
K-Pax
Dune
Children of Dune
2010: the year we made contact? (i think is the name)
Contact
Red Planet (and the other mars movies)
Fifth Element (one of my fav's)
BladeRunner
-----------------
That's it off the top of my head, just a few from the last few weeks I have seen. If you have any movies you think I need to see or I won't die a happy man, please fill me in!  ____________________

Well, I prefer sci fi books, since sci fi movies usually is the same old plot, but in space.
I have to say that Bicentennial Man is the best sci fi movie I've seen. But I might be forgetting a few movies.
TV series is better at making good sci fi. Star Trek is good, I prefer the original series, and then Enterprise.
Other good series would be Farscape, Andromeda, Space: Above and Beyond (though that was a bit of marines in space a la Starship Troopers).
But I'm sure I'm forgetting some in that category as well.

Great, all good suggestions thx guys
Im a huge star trek fan, so I figured I better not even mention it that alone would need its own thread along with Star Wars 
Im noticing "Pitch Black" is comming up amongst the recommendations, I'll grab it next time, I always pass it in the store thinking, bah that doesn't look too spacey. K so Pitch Black is next on my list 
What's "the Arrival" about in a nutshell? What year is the story set in?
Ok one last question, Chronicles of Ri**** (sp?) is that out on DVD/video yet? Was playing in theatres last I heard.
right keep em comming gents! all good feedback

Edited by: Darrin Tobruk on 13/08/2004 00:37:39 Pitch Black is good, and I even liked the Chronicals of Rid**** (the sequal to Pitch Black which bombed at the box office).
All the Star Wars movies, althought the last two not as much.
Star Trek II and VI are my favorites from the franchise.
Does Spaceballs count as sci-fi? 
Stargate (the movie, series rocks as well, but we're talking movies)
Alien and Aliens
Can't think of anything else, atm. _______________________________________________ Eris Discordia: On the scale of funny and constructive it scores low, real low. |

Arrival, The (1996) Zane Ziminski is fired from NASA after picking up unidentified signals from a distant location in space. His curiosity soon turn to sheer terror as he travels to Mexico, where a series of unexplained events lead him to believe that there are aliens all over the world. He gathers evidence to support this theory but will he ever have the chance to broadcast the 'facts' alive?
Second Arrival, The (1998) After Zane Ziminski is found dead five people received envelopes with details of an alien invasion. This group of five includes 3 scientists, Zane's brother Jack, and a reporter. Quickly, the group is down to three and then Jack and Bridget, the reporter. With a small piece of alien technology, they must escape from the aliens, who take human form, and try to convince others of the existence of aliens.
BIG Nutshell :P

Well I grew up with old starwars, I read a comic book, then I was nuts when I saw first movie (I was like 5 or 6). So starwars were my main movies when I grew up. Nowadays, the movie I dig most has to be Bladerunner. --
