The Classic SciFi MoviesFollow

LMAO!!! Aye, it was the original that I was referring to, not the one that came out, in the ?1990s?. I did see that one, but the original will be hard to beat.



I felt I had to include The Matrix due to some of its camera techniques/technology and other aspects of the way the movie was made have become standards in the film industry.



I consider myself corrected. As long as you are talking about the Japanese productions and not the one with Matthew Broderick (sp?). That one did have some pretty cool sequences, but IMHO just didnt compare to the originals.



The way I handle these "movies" is I simply look at each one as having nothing to do with Highlander. Highlander ended with Duncan winning the prize, the end. The later movies were simply a different take on the Highlander idea, and I dont associate them with any kind of continuity with the first movie. Allows me to remain sane that way.

I use this method with the Terminator movies. It is very effective.

Not exactly classic as they haven't been around for the longest time, but movies that are absolutely amazing in my eyes that haven't been listed:

Equilibrium - This is where i started to like Christian Bale
Donnie Darko - It has parallel universes for crying out loud
Gattica - Excellent movie.
Transformers - nuff said.

Perhaps one of the best movies I've seen. Loved my high school biology class because I got to watch it in there.

How you can hate Equilibrium is beyond me (it has Gun Martial Arts!), especially if you liked Tremors more.

Transformers I can kinda understand, there are some parts that get on my nerves but still it's a movie I loved cause it reminded me of watching the tv show Transformers when I was a kid.
