I've pretty much run out of science fiction movies

[mushroomman]

I like those really lonely, non action, science fiction movies like Moon, Solaris, 2001, and 2010. But I can't really think of anything else. At least ones that I haven't already seen. What am I missing and what should I watch to keep my head from melting?

Europa Report

BBC - Space Odyssey - Voyage To The Planets

Race to Mars

p.s. thanks for the textures!

[nhnifong]

Europa report was goooood

In fact, I think that the flavor text for the EVA report on the surface of Vall is a reference to Europa Report...

[Galacticruler]

Sphere, The abyss...hmm....(Both have a bit but not a lot of action.)

Jodie Foster in Contact. Dune(1984) is another good one, sadly without Jodie Foster.

[ZedNova]

Do what i did, start looking for good horror/thriller movies.

[vetrox]

I dont want to sound like a jerk but read some books (i dont know how to type that without sounding like a complete jerk!)

There are some superb sci fi books (my personal favourite being dune!)

[lajoswinkler]

Another Earth was a weird surprise. It's not an insanely good movie, but it has that soothing quality.

I love Moon Zero Two and Outland. Course, those are both action flicks. Or space westerns....but they are also kind of gritty and hard sci-fi.

[camulus777]

Outland is one of my favorite sean conery flicks. How about Farscape, it's always good for a few days of fun.

[camulus777]

sry it was a double post for some reason so ill just turn it into something else.

!WARNING! BAD SCIFI ALERT

I personally like Armaggedon more than Deep Impact because of fast paced action and great soundtrack

Gravity seems to be fine

[sidew]

Japanese anime hard sci-fi:

- Planetes

- Rocket Girls

- Space Brothers (still in progress over 77 episodes )

Watch Primer until you understand it completely. By that time a whole bunch of new sci fi will be out.

Firefly was great! I loved it. I got hooked and watched all of them in 2 weekends.

Silent Running. Just one guy, alone in space, tending a space-bound forest which represents the last examples of life on Earth. His only company is a pair of little maintenance robots. To some it's a preachy ecowarrior movie; but it's also slow, quiet and contemplative.

You have to see Gravity for serial brah

[Asmith89]

I dont wish to complete like a jerk but apprehend some books (i dont apperceive how to blazon that after aural like a complete jerk

[JebidiahsBigSister]

Silent Running.

I very much second that - it's a classic - and very much like the kind of thing the O.P. was asking about.

Also - Asmith89 - WTF, man? It sounds like you ran a non-Romance language into Google translate.

That's actually quite funny.
