What happened to sci-fi???[views:15271][posts:137]_____________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:08am - arilliusbm ""] [img] |
| ____________________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:09am - FuckIsMySignature ""] my favorite scifi movies are district 9 and avatar |
| ___________________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:10am - largefreakatzero ""] It's a conspiracy to piss of Aril with sub-par movies. I liked D9. |
| ____________________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:12am - MikeofdecrepitudE ""] I was going to say something in the other thread but I decided against it. We're not living in the 80's or early 90's. Quality Sci-Fi is dead, get over it! |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:14am - arilliusbm ""] lol |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:15am - arilliusbm ""] trying to overdo this nonsense, kind of like how hoser hates on MA. |
| ____________________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:17am - MikeofdecrepitudE ""] We need to utilize the Volcano and watch Death Machine. It will bring us back to a better time. |

| ____________________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:18am - FuckIsMySignature ""] 1996 had the best movies |
| _______________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:18am - the_reverend ""] it became syfy, duh. |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:19am - arilliusbm ""] I'm in the mood to watch all cube movies. First one was ok for thriller/scifi, 2nd one kinda sucked, but I haven't seen the third. Cube, anyone? |
| ____________________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:20am - MikeofdecrepitudE ""] Why does everyone hate on Cube II: Hypercube? Faggots. |
| __________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:20am - reimroc ""] hahaha are you serious? you shit on D9 but you love cube? |
| ____________________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:21am - MikeofdecrepitudE ""] Cube > District 9. |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:22am - arktouros ""] it's just not in pop movies, and it never was, with some exceptions... ALIENS or GTFO... I've been playing Mass Effect 2 which fucking rules but still has some space-opera mixed with scifi. Dune has already been written, so that's that. |
| __________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:22am - reimroc ""] MikeofdecrepitudE said:Cube > District 9. i beg to differ. |
| ___________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:23am - brian_dc ""] For a relatively popular, modern sci-fi flick, Children of Men was very good. |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:24am - arktouros ""] fuck yeah it was. |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:24am - arilliusbm ""] Wait, ALIENS? With an S? That was the cheesiest follow up to ridley scotts masterpiece. |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:25am - arktouros ""] Also, the first Matrix is still one of the best IMO. I liked 2 and 3 but they weren't "good scifi"... |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:26am - arktouros ""] I mean Alien and Aliens. Third was a cheesy follow up. |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:29am - arilliusbm ""] Children of Men is an incredible movie. And it has Itcotck in it. They need to make a halflife movie, and a Dig movie. (old Lucas arts pc game). Cube, while not having the best acting ever, had an incredibly unique concept and was dark. The TFC map was fucking awesome too. |
| ____________________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:32am - MikeofdecrepitudE ""] reimroc said: MikeofdecrepitudE said:Cube > District 9. i beg to differ. Cube may have had a lower production cost but it was way more atmospheric, the acting was over the top and the storyline was grim. I'll take all of those elements over some big budget Hollywood shit show. |
| __________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:33am - reimroc ""] did you even watch D9? and the acting in cube wasn't something to write home about if you want to get really nit-picky like aril. |

That was the cheesiest follow up to ridley scotts masterpiece. most of the time i can appreciate your hate, but i will not suffer hate to any aspect of the first two Alien movies. the third yes, but those first two are fucking awesome. |

Resurrection was awesome though.. highly underrated imho |
| _______________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:40am - Yeti ""] oh man the Doom movie was so bad, and that horrid attempt at making it seem like the game at the end was even worse. |
| ____________________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:41am - MikeofdecrepitudE ""] I watched D9 with a head full of pot cookies. You just need explosions, PC plot lines, and Peter Jackson's name attached to it. |
| ____________________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:42am - MikeofdecrepitudE ""] Considering David Fincher had no script to work with, Alien 3 rules. Fuck action sequences and the Marines. |

| _____________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:50am - arilliusbm ""] I'm not saying alienS was bad, it was just a typical sci fi action movie. It wasn't a thriller-based movie like alien. Did you guys see pandorum? |
| ____________________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:52am - MikeofdecrepitudE ""] Aliens has some great scenes but it wasn't as atmospheric as Ridley Scott's film. |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:52am - arktouros ""] Pandaroom? nope |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:57am - arilliusbm ""] Pandorum was an ok sci fi thriller movie that came out this summer. I liked it better than d9 but it was still kind of cheesy. It was more traditional in the sense that it took place in a spaceship the whole time, not a poor south african slum with giant bug fags that conquered space travel but live in shacks, much like poor Africans today except not as cool |

| _______________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:59am - the_reverend ""] you know what rules about liking old sci-fi movies and not new sci-fi movies? YOU CAN WATCH OLD MOVIES ANY TIME YOU WANT. original twilight zones or outer limits FTW |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:59am - arilliusbm ""] itt: shitty unfunny ITTs |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 10:59am - arktouros ""] in D9 they never elaborated if it was a derelict convict ship, deported lowlifes, homo bugs, etc...i still think it was damn good and i'm wondering where they will go with it. |
| _______________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 11:00am - the_reverend ""] I'm going to movie night at aril's. [img] |
| ___________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 11:00am - brian_dc ""] somebody say something about a panda room? [img] Can somebody sign for this? |

Resurrection was awesome though.. highly underrated imho Jean-Pierre Jeunet has made some of the coolest sci-fi in the past couple decades: Alien Resurrection and City of Lost Children are both amazing. |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 11:01am - arilliusbm ""] Read the abovetopsecret alien forums from November-December. They were taking peoples' advice for the sequel. I trolled them hard. |

| ____________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 11:05am - arktouros ""] oh yeah, that little unknown series STAR TREK is alright. |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 11:06am - arilliusbm ""] haha fuck you. My movie night the other night consisted of watching total recall. Of course after the movie I had to go to the Sharon stone side nipple shot then relook at the 3 titted lady. fap |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 11:07am - arktouros ""] oh man, i like cheesy arnold movies but Total Recall is on it's own cheese level |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 29,2010 11:14am - arilliusbm ""] total recalls story is good but doesn't quite cut it. it's not a bad movie, though. The baby in the stomach looks better than today's cgi. |
