buckykat, in 100 days into strike WB television ‘suspends’ agreements with 6 major production companies.

Capitalists will really report not getting as much more money as they wanted to as a loss

This is significant, but probably not quite as significant as it would seem at first glance, if indeed the contracts are merely suspended and their terms will be extended once they resume.

On the other hand, it’s nice that the studios have dropped their “the strikes are saving us money” bullshit.

The treats are about to be even more rancid, I can’t wait to see how the very normal people react to it

charonn0, in Shouldn’t we expect better fact-checking from the BBC? Even a pop-culture writer profiling Star Trek The Animated Series?

Now imagine all the errors they’ve made in subjects you’re not an expert in.

I told Pierce a thousand times, I never wanted Levar to host in person! I just wanted a picture. You can’t disappoint a picture!

Dagwood222, in Favorite sci fi film (thats not Star Trek)?

Some obscure ones.

‘Altered States.’ Scientist tries mixing LSD and sensory deprivation. Not a great mix.

‘Battle Beyond the Stars’ Gloriously cheesy re-make of ‘The Magnificent Seven.’ Which was a remake of ‘The Seven Samurai.’

‘Rollerball’ James Caan original, not the remake.

Deepus, in Favorite sci fi film (thats not Star Trek)?

I wouldn’t say its my favourite but Mute is up there for me. Does Hackers count as a sci fi film? If so, that!

Aggravationstation, in Favorite sci fi film (thats not Star Trek)?

Toss up between Robocop (1987) or Hardware (1990)

Predestination (2014)

One of the most original and unique takes on the time travel trope I’ve ever seen.

TerryTPlatypus, in Favorite sci fi film (thats not Star Trek)?

These ones might be smaller, but:

  • Meet The Robinsons
  • Tomorrowland
  • Me. Peabody and Sherman
  • Everything, Everywhere, All At Once

I think these movies were really good because they actually moved you, in their own little way.

EssentialCoffee, in Favorite sci fi film (thats not Star Trek)?

It’s impossible to name just one, so here’s a couple.

Metropolis

Equilibrium

Jurassic Park

Galaxy Quest

Robo Cop

Face/Off (This one might be stretching a little, but it’s not possible without the sci-fi aspect, so I’m counting it).

palitu, in Favorite sci fi film (thats not Star Trek)?

I do love the fifth element. Absolite classic, with what seems like ageless cinematography

ShranTheWaterPoloFan, in Favorite sci fi film (thats not Star Trek)?

Coherence - a great small film.

Gattaca - fun sci-fi film that feels ignored

Moon - fantastic performance from Sam Rockwell

Primer - confusing but the best time travel movie ever

Dark City - I love this movie. It has problems, but it’s such a cool ride

Existenz - very matrix like but unique and surprisingly good

The institute - not sci-fi per say but a really cool documentary

NuPNuA, in Favorite sci fi film (thats not Star Trek)?

2001- A Space Odyssey.
