Watch "Pandorum"
Also, all married couples should see "Antichrist" by Lars von Trir.

too much CGI for my taste... anyhow, I'll give it the benefit of a doubt as soon as it hits cinemas over here.  Cool Watching it on PC would be such a waste.

This movie is old, but it's fantastic: Blade Runner. You guys ever watched it?
I just finished reading the book which inspired the story of the film. It's a very good book by Philip K. Dick, called "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?"
I really do recommend both book and movie for those interested in science fiction. And for everyone elso too!
PS: The soundtrack is incredible!

I read the book and watched the movie. After reading the book, the movie seemed very pale and I have never watched it again, although I love Rutger Hauer's role in that movie. Like many of Dick's other books, this one also gives a feeling of not being completely finished (or my English version lacks a few last pages Cheesy). Still, him being one of my favourite writers, I'd recommend you his best book "Ubik". That one is perfect and completely finished.  Cool Also, the you might wanna read/watch "Scanner Darkly".

for the fans of Clive Barker's monstrous mind: "Midnight Meat Train" is a must see! Football fans would also like the movie since Vinnie Jones plays the main role.  Wink

It's Harry Harrison Smiley
I can recommend whole Deathworld series, one of my most fav - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deathworld

Andre Norton is pretty famous over here too - check http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sargasso_of_Space

They both write different kinds of sci-fi, not just space-related. I do read them often, they are on second place after brothers Strugatsky for me.

Cloverfield is excellent. The Monstro wins! Smiley

What do you think about "Gamer" ?  As for me, it's performs much more action than Willis's "Surrogates" having the same core idea.

I was really looking forward to watching this movie. The storyline was promising and i actually like Gerard Butler. After half an hour im thinking to myself ... OK this has GOTTA get better, but sadly it didn't, it got a whole lot worse tho. What started as a movie with a decent plot rapidly turned into an extended marilyn manson video, it made absolutely no sense, the characters were about as deep as a dwarfs bathtub and at one point i actually had to stop myself from gouging my eyes out with a rusty spoon. I, honestly, cannot think of anyone who would find this movie entertaining in any shape or form and can say with complete seriousness that I've had more fun at the dentist ... having a root canal

IMDb review. Although 90% of IMDb reviews are complete nonsense, I think I'll pass. Even "Outlander" which was total crap except for the main actress wasn't compared to root canal surgery.
