Fucking loved that.

[IMG]http://tormentedfilms.com/wp-content/uploads/Pandorum.jpg[/IMG]

[b]Star Trek(2009)[/b]
[img]http://blog.80millionmoviesfree.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/star-trek.jpg[/img]
To be honest, not my kind of film, but it was good.
[editline]7th December 2010[/editline]
[b]Solaris[/b] the new one

Loved that too.

[b]Moon[/b]

Incredible!And i love that poster.
How could you forget Star Wars, OP?
I think 2001 is garbage. The only one I like on your list is Moon.
Moon was really really good, and more importantly, an [B]original[/B] story in this age of remakes, reboots, and reimaginings
I can't really think of any real spacey films off the top of my head that don't suck though, sorry

Slightly unrealistic but still entertaining movie about a bunch of old hilarious people blackmailing NASA into sending them on a shuttle flight.
[editline]6th December 2010[/editline]

Trippy movie about a mission to restart the Sun.
[editline]6th December 2010[/editline]

You should be thrown out an airlock for not including this one.

It's about the first space mission or something. Very good movie.
the Solaris remake was pretty crap.
Apollo 13 is pretty boss. Tom Hanks was awesome in that movie.
Also Moon is definitely within my top 10 favorite movies.
[url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serenity_%28film%29[/url]
That one, too.

not sure if it counts
Event Horizon was an awesome movie, can anyone suggest anything like it?
[b]Spaceballs[/b]
[IMG]http://voize.my/images/stories/spaceballs_20080929.jpg[/IMG]
[b]Firefly series (feature-film named Serenity)[/b]
[IMG]http://keithscherer.typepad.com/.a/6a00d8341c57c753ef01053630639f970c-800wi[/IMG]
Serenity was pretty cool
Contact was a shitty film.
oh god how could i forget sunshine and apollo 13
Contact is my brothers favorite movie. It was ok the first 2 times but after the 50th I started to get testy.
[B]Sunshine[/B]
[IMG]http://thetemptrack.files.wordpress.com/2010/07/sunshine.jpg[/IMG]
[B]Apollo 13[/B]
[IMG]http://www.movieposter.com/posters/archive/main/38/MPW-19255[/IMG]
These were like my two favourite films, i don't know how I could forget them.
[B]The red planet[/B]
[IMG]http://www.myconfinedspace.com/wp-content/uploads/tdomf/58495/red_planet-337x500.jpg[/IMG]
Oh, and I don't necessarily like all the films I posted in this thread..
Sunshine was brilliant. A lot of people hated it for some reason. Dany Boyle did an excellent job, i think people where expecting a lot from it because 28 days later was so fantastic.
I haven't seen any of the movies in the OP other than Star Trek and Pandorum.
:smith:
How about Armageddon?

To be honest I loved it, it was more of a viusal fest then anything else and it was brilliant, but on my first viewing the movie seemed like it was going in the direction of some sort of Dead Space type storyline, which to be honest would have been awesome espicially with Danny Boyle directing, sadly it was just some random guy chasing everyone around who you barely actually get too see, which I guess was disappointing, it's not that, that was necesarily a bad thing, it's that I expect something completely different, and I hoped it being Danny Boyle I'd see a really good monster/spaceship horror movie, and there aren't a lot of those aside from Event Horizon (which wasn't too great, plus wasn't really monster based) and Alien is obviously exempt from that.
