SF is about all I do these days: been catching up on series I missed
after turning off the tv years ago.I much prefer seeing this stuff on dvd-- no commercials.
What I'd like to see in this thread is some fresh meat:
things I haven't encountered.
All that said, I have never waivered from saying that
Forbidden Planet is the best science film ever made.
I probably had a crush on Ann Fancis when she played Honey
West too.
Forbidden Planet is in the 'seen more than once or twice'
category. Also in that category is Dark City.
I have a particular fascination with the Steam Punk
subgenre of SF: Victorian settings with fantastic machinery
ala' Jules Vern and Mary Shelly. There's a variety of film
included in this category. I like the remake of the
Time Machine better than the George Pal one. The Leaugue
of Extraordinary Gentlemen was ruined by the cartoonish
ending.
As to The Prisoner-- it's simply in a class by itself.
