sci fi movies

[Grumbs]

Animated robots fight each other interspersed with philosophical musings and random mysterious things occur. Its watchable, just don't expect too much considering the hype

Hes seen Akira and Ghost in the shell, can't recommend much else

[Taser]

In terms of anime..how about Neon Genesis Evangelion? I think its overrated but its watchable

Full Metal Alchemist or Appleseed possibly?Only saw 1 episode of FMA and I wasn't impressed but might be worth a try. Mean to watch Appleseed some time

Oh and if you liked Serenity then watch Firefly. I liked Farscape too

Saw these movies this week and both were a solid 8.5/10 in my opinion.

Snowpiercer - Lots of mature themes such as social classes, and morality. Very creative settings and narratives.

Dredd - No holds barred sci-fi action. It's well scripted, unlike other CG filled, 500 cuts per second with just as many explosions/I don't know what the fuck is going on movies (I'm looking at you, Transformers).

Yeah, Snowpiercer is pretty neat, lots of references to old French sci-fi comics.

Alright, keep them coming, anime too!

Movies:
Children of Men

As for Anime:
Code Geass - not uber scifi, but uber worth it
Cowboy Bebop - how have you not seen this yet faggot, one of the best
Neon Genesis Evangelion - this one is also ok, overhyped though imo
Hyper Future Vision Gunm - short but interesting
Trigun - awesome anime

I second the previously recommended films...

• Dune movies
• Dredd
• Oblivion
• The Thing

[wanteds]

How many Dune movies are there?

If you want to watch Sci-fi Anime you should really have a look at Yamato 2199.

Snowpiercer

Dredd -

Listen to this man, two of the greatest sci-fis of the past years. Just watched Snowpiercer, and man I really love this movie, so many great things in it. + great music.

mild spoiler

(click to show/hide)

many many great scenes, but for me the whole education section with so many genius references to dictatorship propaganda and the marvelous Tilda Swinton and then the smooth transition into badass action again was so superb!

Ah, and I also recommend The Host, from the same regisseur (Joon ho-bong).The new Dredd is also one of the best action movies IMO, so straightforward and cuts out all the unnecessary Bullshit like what a bad childhood the hero had or what.

And as for Anime classy of course Nausicaa and more recent Ghost in a Shell.
