Never mind... The list order is a bit out of sequence.

Well you sort of watch him to make sure he isn’t stealing something of some other dirty deed.

Interesting.

I never had any problem with knowing what was going on.

I thought about why I thought it was good and the reason s that it was in fact a love story, told in the guise of a scifi action flick in a creative way with the found footage gimmick.

Thank you for not only spelling “wreak” correctly, but using the word correctly. Most people write “reek,” and even the highly literate will write “wreck” more often than not.

I would say if they used wreck rather than wreak in that context, they aren’t highly literate.

It is, alas, an age of illiteracy.

Where’s Demolition Man? That’s America in 10 years....

Worth it for Dennis Leary's speech alone.....

"That's right. You see, according to *Cacteau's* plan. *I'm* the enemy. Because I like to think, I like to read. I'm into freedom of speech, freedom of choice. I'm the kind if guy who would sit in the greasy spoon and think "Gee, should I have the T-bone steak or the big rack of Barbecued spare ribs with the side order of gravy fries?" I *want* high cholesterol. I want to eat bacon, butter and buckets of cheese alright? I want to smoke a Cuban cigar the size of Cincinatti in a non-smoking section. I wanna run around naked with green jell-o all over my body reading a Playboy magazine. Why? Because maybe I feel the need to okay pal? I've *seen* the future, you know what it is. It's made by a 47 year-old virgin in gray pajamas soaking in a bubble bath, drinking a broccoli milkshake and thinking "I'm an Oscar-Meyer Wiener". "

I like the overall theme of a utopia gone bad, and a guy fighting to live his dream despite being told he can’t. I also like the guy that helps him at the end, who knew all along.

You are a happy jack, aren’t you.

As for your comment, the two aren’t mutually exclusive.

No one wants to watch science fiction with me. I always point out the flaws in the “science”...

This site appears to be dead now, but they still have some really good movie physics analyses:

I think it is brilliant and timeless.

I feel like we are living that movie.

How come you get multiple hits for Start Wars movies but there’s only one Planet of the Apes?

Because it's a very poor list. I've see 41 of these and half of them would not be on my 50 best Sci-Fi films.

I enjoyed “Brazil,” the whole wacky dystopia and the wild spectacle, but the nasty turn it took about 2/3 of the way through disturbed me then and still does. It’s hard to watch all the way through.
