I watched I-Robot the other night and was fairly well entertained

2001: A Space Odyssey. Turn the volume up for the finale.

Buy the feature length opening movie of the new BattleStar Galactica series...then buy the series (which I am watching right now). It is excellent.

Yes it is excellent isn't it.

Excellent taste sir!

Lemmy's fee was apparently £50 and a bottle of Jack Daniels.

Just a shame the Voyager DVD series are about £60 each, I have season 1, 2 and 4

Season 4 came with the episode list from season 3 but havent got round to changing it

Pitch Black. Excellent movie.

[jacobyte]

Event Horizon

Barbarella anyone?

I refuse to watch that on principal. Isaac Asimov must be spinning in his grave from having his name associated with a film about killer robots given that he invented the Three Laws of Robotics that prevented robots from harming humans.

(And breathe)

I've got a large collection of Sci-Fi. Depends on what you want - give us a clue. Sci-Fi horror, Sci-Fi action, Sci-Fi messes-with-your-head, or what?

I really do think the new "Galactica" is a superb series - great stories and a very adult theme.

I haven't enjoyed a sci-fi series as much since STTNG.

Equilibrium. Fantastic Film. Best one I've seen for a long while. Or if you're in the mood for a little sillyness, the Back to the Future Trilogy.
