tash =) Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 The Matrix, Star Wars (IV, V & VI) and Back to the Future. One of my fave movies is Donnie Darko, which has some sciencey themes, but prob doesn't really count as sci-fi (more cult i guess). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffy Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 :eek_big:How dare you call Zardoz bad! You should have stuck Coneheads in that category. ;)My dad always had a crush on Charlotte Rampling, but he said, "even I can't sit through that dreck..." and he's a sci-fi and Sean Connery fan too. Okay, its weird, and I wish Joel and the 'Bots had the chance to razz it on Mystery Science Theater, but it really is *bad*!But the absolute top sci-fi; Flesh Gordon:hihi: It's all about Emporer Wang, gotta love the Wang.;)Okay, NOW I see where your tastes lie! Don't tell me you were impressed by Charlotte's (non-existent) breasts! Cheers,Buffy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
