Still my favorite: Stanley Kubrick’s “2001: A Space Odyssey”

[Cheapskate]

Outland !!!There ya go!!!

[laurenmarlowe]

Oh BIGLOOK, I think Galaxy Quest is just hilarious!

[stbdside]

The title of that movie is John Carpenter’s “They Live.”

[NormsRevenge]

I used to watch the Saturday late night thriller movies on local tv here for years in the Bay Area,, lots of great old B and beyond movies out there.

[BIGLOOK]

Which....the Gianrs or the Falcons?

[eyedigress]

If anyone wants to catch Ann again it will be 10 min. on FNC. (It really doesn’t say anything but the new sci-fi’s must have current politics Eh?)

[luckystarmom]

These aren’t outer space movies, but they are sci-fi.

Besides others that have been listed:

War of the Worlds - (the original one)
Signs

[eyedigress]

The Giarns.

[NormsRevenge]

War of the Worlds,, that scared the bejeezus out of me as a kid,, oh yeah.

This one had a few good moments too.

Kathy Ireland was in another Mistied movie: Alien from L.A.

[BIGLOOK]

I grew fond of the supporting cast.

I don’t mean to be crude but has anyone ever noticed the sexual enuendo in the style of the creatures in the Alien movies?

Indeed. Try Googling "H.R. Giger" to see the influences behind that creature. It's actually pretty tame, compared to some of Giger's other work. Disturbing stuff, IMO.

[eyedigress]

ME?

[higgmeister]

“Enemy Mine” was a good movie but it was not as good as the novella it was taken from by Barry B. Longyear. The novella gave more background on the Dracons and Jerry the Drac’s lineage.

[Army Air Corps]

When you have a chance, watch Alien from L.A..

[swatbuznik]

Star Wars—The 1977 release, not the atrocity “special” edition released to the public back in 1996. The one where Han shot first (and only), the one NOT filled with CGI leftovers, the one that hasn’t been properly put on DVD. The one that made your imagination soar when Ben Kenobi spoke of Luke’s father and the clone warS. One that does not involve Jar Jar “piece of crap” Binks and effeminate Anakin Skywalker. The one where Lucas was young, lean, mean, and actually meant it when he said that a story is more important that special effects. Yes, that one.

I think Galaxy Quest is just hilarious!

It sure is. I love how they dubbed over Sigourney's line where she and Tim are about to go through the "chompers": "Well, **** THAT!" You can still read her lips plainly enough.
