Solarmass Forgot how incredible Dark City was, thanks for the jolt. Fury not my favorite Max, but I own it and watch it sometimes for sure.

    brent Sunshine - is a must-watch!

    Forgot how incredible Dark City was

    Yes! It's a classic imo =)

    Fury not my favorite Max, but I own it and watch it sometimes for sure.

    I am not very familiar with the old ones. The next movie will be "Furiosa" with Anya Taylor-Joy, very interesting!

        Solarmass the trailer was bitchin.' it was always the premise that floored me: nuke the sun in hopes of jump-starting it. Wow.
        Dark City: remember Mickey Rourke the most.
        Empress Furiosa is Charlize Theron. I'm surprised she isn't coming back.

            Scientifically the idea is stupid, but the movie is awesome 🙂

            Dark City: remember Mickey Rourke the most.

            What!? He is not in the movie 😉

            Empress Furiosa is Charlize Theron. I'm surprised she isn't coming back.

            I think because it is a prequel about young Furiosa.
            Anya Taylor-Joy was awesome in The Queen's Gambit 😍

                Solarmass I forgot Dark City was the amnesia guy and Keifer was in it too. Also excellent. I think I was thinking of Sin City maybe? Which is also weird and good.
                Prequel with ATJ🙂. I'm in. Goerge Miller directing I wonder? Or has Mad Max finally spun off?

                    and Jennifer Connelly. I think you need to rewatch it 😉

                    Yep, but it is not sci-fi

                    Prequel with ATJ🙂. I'm in. Goerge Miller directing I wonder?

                    Yep! And the next movie:

                      Thank you for the info, Solarmass. Yes, I remember Jennifer Connelly!

                      I will leave this thread tonight with a sci-fi (I think) movie that also left a haunting and gunky impression on my noggin.

                        brent I watched Donnie Darko recently for the 1st time. Didn't like it 😕

                            Solarmass I didn't get it all and it was heavy. I thought it was profound and difficult at the time and I'd go back and look it up and give another view someday. But I never did.

                                brent I really liked it but I also understand it's a meme in itself to like it. The honest trailer really does sum it up well.

                                    Liked it but unsettling. I like that a movie can have that effect on me. I love that a movie can, actually. M.Night never did anything on this scale. But I always wondered if DD was a con job in some way.
                                    Can't explain.
                                    CC'ed you both to say I just plugged in headphones and will watch this review.

                                        Honest trailer in a hip way but seemed to dismiss the whole movie at every level. The idea of time travel and parallel universes (Donnie Darko's premise) is glossed over in this review. The unconventional way both those concepts were expressed in that movie was its selling point for me at the time, but like I said, I never had to re-discover it again.
                                        Same with Butterfly Effect in that regard.

                                          brent Butterfly Effect

                                          The Butterfly Effect (2004) with Ashton Kutcher was pretty cool.

                                          I just plugged in headphones and will watch this review.

                                          There is also Mad Max: Fury Road Honest Trailer! (One of my favorite Honest Trailer) 🙂

                                            The Matrix has a slightly "cringe" reputation as all the things it originated have been done to death now, but I rewatched it recently and it's still an incredible film.

                                            Dark Star is a favourite of mine- very weird, funny and unique.

                                            Tremors is tremendous fun!

                                            brent loved 70's relic A Boy and His Dog but can't find anymore

                                            I have a copy of this 🙂

                                                synth-ruiner A Boy and His Dog blew my mind. I will find it🙂

                                                Solarmass synth-ruiner Tremors is insanely good fun and I can see that every year---but if zombie movies and pandemic movies (all set present day) can be sci-fi, certainly Tremors can. Semantics though. Great movie.
