Hallo.

I need to come up with some good science fiction movies for a just started movie club. Any good ideas? Something maybe Blade Runner'ish. Snow Piercer was nice as well. Unfortunately I haven't watched that many movies( hence the new movie club) so I can't describe my taste much. I hope some of you will have some nice movies! Smile.

I'm going to recommend a couple by Spielberg: Minority Report and A.I.


TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."
"...like nothing else on television."
"a phenomenon."
"A tangled tale of sex, violence, power, junk food..."
"Like Nothing On Earth"

Well, the movie essentially is blade runner
so much of the same visuals and themes
the latest almost original length version was only discovered recently
