Looking for some solid science fiction. I love dystopias and space and think time travel really can be done well sometimes.

Watched Oblivion? Not a very strong story but lots of sci-fy eye candy.

generally googling "best sci fi movies" gives me lists based on sales or ratings which either I've seen all of or know aren't actually worth watching
hunger games should not be on a list of best sci fi movies

Snowpiercer. It's like Hunger Games for people who have more than two functioning brain cells.

Slaughterhouse Five

No, it is not a slasher movie. A man becomes unstuck in time and relives his life in somewhat random order, including his WWII POW experience. Based on the Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. novel.

Haven't seen the movie but I'd recommend it anyway based on the book. Great stuff.

Watch equilibrium, it's not very well known (or good for that matter) but if you are interested in the dystopian qualities it might be right in your alley.

Seconding this, Snowpiercer is great.Thank you based South Korea.

The Fountain by Darren Aronofsky. I liked it but the opinion about it is pretty mixed. Less science fiction and more fantasy

Man in Outer Space (1962) More like Utopian sci fi, with a satirical take on Earthly customs and mores.
>>
is The Man Who Fell to Earth worth watching?
a local cinema had the poster up in the lobby and I thought it looked interesting
>>
>>63040819

Never seen it, really hate almost everything else lucas has done. Is it vastly different?
>>
>>63041568
>>63041082

It's a good action movie, vastly better than most that are put out. And it had some extremely good segments, but it fell a bit flat because the producers made them spell out the message (fuck the masses.)
>>
>>63044010
>The Man Who Fell to Earth
Only if you're a Bowie fan. I am and I was pleasantly surprised but it's nothing more than a flick with awful make up and pretentious cinematography. The story is all right but you're better off reading the novel I guess.

I'm telling you as a fan of the movie, it's in my top 10 personal favorites.

From this single shot I can tell it's infinitely better than the shit he's put out recently

What made Lucas so awful?

>>63040839
Ok, just finished this
I give it a 6/10, pretty good
7/10 for an indie film
5/10 for the AI's dialogue

Ending made me furious though

I feel like Equilibrium would have been cooler if I hadn't just read Brave New World and Fahrenheit 451 a month or two earlier. Because it's one of the most blatant rip-offs ever.

Cinema experience pastas on /tv/ are very dystopian, in a silly way and disturbing way.

Not really a recommendation b/c I haven't seen them but

Silent Running
Colossus: The Corbin Project

Have landed on my radar recently and sound cool, like classic 70s dystopia flicks.

>>63049961
and don't forget Cube Zero, the prequel!

Silent running is good but a little slow. Colossus: The corbin project is a great movie. I recommend both

Ghost in the shell and Akira if you're into animation. The Twelve Monkeys and Theorem Zero pic related, and Contact and Solaris.

>>63051272
I keep meaning to watch Solaris, but you have to be in a very specific mood for a movie that long
