Can anyone recommend a good sc-fi -  not widely known but still good?

Sunshine is worth a watch if you haven't already seen it.

Really? Thought it was pretty confusing and nonsensical. Had some cool effects though.

It was a bit strange, but it is rated 7.3 on IMDB which is definitely watchable lol.

Oh well if IMDB says it's a 7.3 then...  Grin

Ah yes, of those you have listed I have only seen The Truman Show and A Clockwork Orange. Truman is very thought-provoking, and there are moments in life sometimes where you wonder if something like that actually exists.

Seen ACO many times now, always a good watch - stands the test of time too.

Also, in response to the thread topic, I'll list a few of my favorites as well as a short explanation as to why I like the movie (without giving away plots).

This list includes movies of many genres, from kid//family movies to intense thrillers.

  • The Truman Show - this Jim Carrey film is great. An interesting concept that pulls you along with it.
  • Bicentennial Man - This is a great Robin Williams film. A great combination of sic-fi, comedy, romance, and story telling. Watch this with a girl you're trying to impress. She'll likely never have seen it and will be in tears by the end, giving you an easy ticket to her heart (or pants).
  • A Clockwork Orange - This film is a classic. I you have read the book and enjoyed it, this one will be perfect for you. A dark and cunning film that is sure to tickle your brain. Not recommended for squeamish/sensitive people or children.
  • Face Off - This is a pretty shitty film featuring John Travolta and Nicholas Cage. While it could be an interesting concept for an action film, it's Cage and Travolta, so yeah. Even though this is not a comedy by any means, I can't help but laugh my ass off while watching it.
  • How to Train Your Dragon - This is a great film for the family, and can easily be enjoyed by people of all ages. If you haven't seen it, you should check it out.
  • The Adventures of Baron Munchausen - I can't really explain this one. Hieronymus Carl Friedrich Baron von Münchhausen was a German nobleman who fought for the Russian military in the 1700s. When he returned home, he was known for telling ridiculously exaggerated tales about his adventures. This movie is based off those stories. It's a bit absurd. That said, I always enjoy watching it.
  • Bio-Dome - This is a really fun and stupid film. It's really dumb. Like, really. It's dumb. Put this movie on while you've got a bunch of friends over for drinks, smoking, etc.

That's all for now. I may post more later. Enjoy  Smiley

So Jesse Eisenberg is the new Lex Luthor in the upcoming Batman vs superman. Isn't he a bit young?

http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/movies/news/a548187/jesse-eisenberg-is-lex-luthor-in-batman-vs-superman-jeremy-irons-alfred.html

Wonder if he will act like Jesse Eisenberg usually does lol.

You mean acting like Michael Cera? lol.

Haha yeah, Cera plays Cera, Eisenberg plays Eisenberg.

"So I've got a role for you, it involves being a witty, arrogant little prick..."

Haha. Have you seen Now You See Me? Fuck! So much witty arrogant little prickishness. Film was bullshit too.

Haha yeah, I watched that not too long ago actually. Mark Ruffalo was very Mark Ruffalo.

Jesse Eisenberg is the first name that comes to mind when you think "who played that arrogant twat in so and so film?" It may not even be him, but you'll think it is. What a Simon Amstell.

I'm pretty sure the two of them don't know how to do anything but "be themselves" while acting. Eisenberg is always a dick and Ruffalo is always high.

Mark Ruffalo as Bruce Banner as Dylan Rhodes: "That's my secret, Horsemen; I'm always angry.
Mark Ruffalo as Dylan Rhodes as Bruce Banner: "That's my secret, Cap; I'm a master street magician.
Mark Ruffalo as Mark Ruffalo: "That's my secret, America; I'm stoned as fuck.

Yeah, I have trouble seeing him as Lex Luthor too... But Irons as Alfred could very well work!

Who knows...

People are shitting all over Affleck for Batman, but I have a feeling he'll surprise quite a few people.

I'm sceptical, but it's not just Affleck you have to worry about; it's Snyder. The one good thing about having zero expectations for this film is the hope of being pleasantly surprised though, which I hope I am.

Would have preferred Mark Strong as Luthor, but will be interesting to see how Jesse will do. Wonder if he will act like Jesse Eisenberg usually does lol.

Irons seems a bit too sinister / villainous for Alfred. Yeah, Strong could be good. He's a great actor.

I'm looking forward to how shit this is going to be. Jeremy Irons could work as Alfred though.

What was the best horror movie released last year? I want something eerie or psychological rather than cheap scares or paranormal crap.
