Fun fact about Ender's Game...The movie was pretty good, but the book is so renowned for its battle strategy that the Commandant of the Marine Corps added it to the recommended reading list for enlisted personnel.

I am so disappointed that you didn't put the Firth Element on this list

2010 was directed by Peter Hyams (Capricorn One, Outland and many others). HE was no slouch, you know. 2010's way more interesting and accessible.

First Matrix movie will always be an amazing in theater experience for me. Back in 1999, the marketing for the movie leading up to the release was just “What is the Matrix?”. No teases about the plot, the action, etc. The Matrix reveal while sitting in theater was mind blowing, not to mention the action. I was already an HK movie fan at the point, but seeing the martial arts and gunfighting brought into a stylized, big budget way was breathtaking. Kinda tough nowadays to go into a movie completely not knowing what to expect at all, and the first Matrix movie experience will always be something I cherish.

For those who read, the Orson Scott Card Ender series has some 12 books in it. You will find considerably more depth in the written Ender than in the movie. Like many devoted readers of specific authors, I almost universally am disappointed in screen renditions of their novels, probably because they do not compare to the "movie" that runs in my mind as I read.

2010 has aged really well imo, awesome "future" 80's movie. Also good call on Looper at #1. Absolutely awesome movie with one of the best endings ever.

What movie is the thumbnail for this video ?

What movie is the thumbnail?

The concept in Mortal Engines reminds me of Heinlein's "The Roads Must Roll." Now, THAT would make a great movie!

That was an excellent FLICK CONNECTION Darren. Some quality recommendations and many thanks for sharing with us. Much appreciated 👍👍👍

Total Recall rocks! I love this movie - its a totally different animal to the original (which i also deeply love!), but just such a great sci-fi action movie.

John Carter. A wide release, but the criminally undermarketed.

Melancholia is my favorite from this list. The second half "Claire" tripped me out.

My favorite genre! The only one's I haven't seen yet are "Vivarium" and "Melancholia!" "Cyberunk: Edgerunners" was incredible.

I like your take on these man, there's a few like Repo Man and Total Recall you've reminded me to watch again !

Repo Man! And the soundtrack is amazing.

Ender’s Game was my favorite sci fi book when I was twelve and, although I couldn’t interest my teenage daughter with watching it now, I found the movie to be a great representation of a classic. Worth a watch for us middle aged sci fi fans

Love this channel. By trial and error I can tell which movies you love that I’m gonna hate, but I’ve also found some really cool stuff 😜

Ender's Game! Yes! Greatly underrated movie. Some great casting with some great actors.

I think 2010 was a well crafted sci-fi. Solid direction and excellent acting. If I catch it anywhere I watch it every time...

Is that kate beckinsale in the thumbnail? I thought I’d watched all of the movies she’s done but that does not look familiar

What movie is the thumbnail of this video based on?

Cool tee there Darren !!

"What about our relationship? " "What?" "Our relationship?" "Fuk$ that!" 🤣Yeah Repo Man is a classic.

Seeing Melancholia for the first time was an absolutely crazy experience. The first half has some awkwardly comedic elements, with the second half an artistic masterpiece. Kirsten Dunst's performance was one for the ages. HIGHLY recommend this Lars von Trier gem.

I don’t think CyberPunk Edgerunners was forgot about. It became extremely popular and actually got people to play the buggy game again after the bugs were fixed and made people actually like the game

Nailed it on Ender's Game and I watch Total Recall for Kate and Jessica.

The Matrix and Looper are definitely the standouts on this list. Personally, I'd have but 2010 way higher. Pretty solid too.

Saw the matrix at the theatre then bought the VHS and would almost watch t every day after coming back from school for a while.

18:38 As one who's read the Ender's Game series, I was VERY excited when the movie came out. Overall, I enjoy it, but it certainly leaves out very significant internal dialogues, leadership ideology, military strategy, etc. that truly make the books very intricate and special. There were just several things that I wished the film explored more deeply. But, I will say that the ultimate message did eventually shine through. "HOW we win matters." is a very strong statement that is far more impactful if you've read at least Ender's Game and Ender's Shadow.

Vivarium is awesome.

One of the best movies/mini series I ever watched was Lars von Trier's 'The Kingdom'. It was long before Antichrist and all of his modern movies so it was bit different. But still schoking, deep, multi-layered and just plan awesome.

The genius of Vivarium is using the everyday mundane to both scare and bewilder. It blew my mind how it uses everyday life to shake you out of apathy.

Nah this your best video. I'm gonna share this on my socials

22:48 Looper is Rian Johnson's last 'great movie', and then he gave us 'SW: The Last Jedi'

80s guy here. Total Recall take. I take it as a good sci-fi flick. I try not to compare the Schwarzenegger flick with this. Still......"get your ass to Mars."

Whats the movie in the thumbnail?

Groovy shirt and good movie list.

I continue to watch all your videos and appreciate most of the recommendations. I did want to advise you that the sound editing (your commentary) in this one sounded very muffled though. Clear but like your were talking into a bucket for what it's worth.

The soundtrack to Repo Man was fantastic and worth checking out. If you like or love the movie, you'll love the music.

sick selection finally brooo!!! jajajajaaj

I don’t consider glass and split sci-fi but they are pretty good. Vivarium was quite sad and really put there.

Looper is really good.

THANKS

I may be showing my age, but there was a big trend to cut food costs by purchasing "no frills" generic foods. Even the labels were almost exactly like the cans in Repo Man. The cans had labels just like the generic labels, except instead of saying "Food" or "drink", they actually said what was in them.

I love Enders Game!

Battleship: "Doesn't take itself seriously". LOL, it is never serious.

The Viewing is indeed great, and Peter Weller is incredibly charismatic in it. Even though the first part is mostly dialogue, it's delivered so well it's extremely interesting.

Repo man is a an absolute classic.

👍👍👍 Cowboys and Aliens, Total Recall, Split, The Matrix, Looper!!!!

Good list! Unfortunately, I've already seen all the movies on this list that I want to see.

Looper is like a HIFI CyberPunk movie, has that future element, but focuses mainly on the TIme traVell aspect, sooo hgood you dont even question the physiscs behind it !!!!

Literally every scene of McAvoy is pretty sick in Split😄

Great hair, bro!

The Viewing - bummer it's not available here. Hello from Florida 🌴 😎

Vivarium is excellent, for those that haven't seen it, it's great but not for everyone. Looper and 2010 are also good ones. Got to check out Ender's game (I read the book, it's good) and Repo Man. Thanks mate.

Enders Game is fantastic. The entire book series is spectacular! Speaker for the Dead should have been a sequel ,

Looper is a great pick. Bruce Willis has been involved is so many great sc-fi movies.

Back to say .... Watch the Total Recall(remake) as you are watching a new Sci-Fi, as DVD suggests. It's a damn good movie, with all the wanted elements. And yes Kate Beckinsale is a badass, but I wish Jessica Biel would have been more kicking ass than she did. She was talented at killing, just wish she would have done more kicking ass😁

Nice shirt

Repo Man is filled with sight gags, and word play throughout. Also, one of my favorite movies with Tracy Walter in it; better know as Nicholson’s Joker’s right hand man. Also, some very generational things like Generic Food those plain cans that said beer, dog food that was a real thing to help save you money. They also make fun of Scientology, with the book Diuretics for L. Ron Hubbard’s book, “Dyanetics” Plus, Michael Nesmith produced it. Saw Split for the first time, mainly because of Anya (as in-her own words-aneurysm) Taylor-Joy. McAvoy was astonishing. Agree with you on The Matrix Trilogy, the first is the best. I feel the same way about the John Wick series. They’re all “good” but to me, the first is the best, and could (should?) have ended there.

Ripley on Net Flick is a killer crime drama. Top ten of Net Flicks this year.

Looper and Matrix 1are great Sci-Fi movies but Everything Everywhere All at Once is an outstanding landmark in movie making it is brilliant, making the simple complex like are minds do. Like 2001, Spirited away and Pulp fiction and a handful of others these transcend and elevate the art and are not just another movie.

I LOVED Melancholia! It stuck with me for days! Definitely not for everybody, though.

Cyberpunk 2077 had a rocky realease, but hardly could be called ill fated. Came back strong this year with its update and DLC, and is widely regarded as being awesome.

I absolutely loved the 2nd Total Rekall movie..Kate looks so good in that movie ..great action ..great visuals ..one of my favorite movies ..can't understand why it doesn't get more love.

It's odd... and VERY telling that you think Harrison Ford in C vrs A is a bad guy... He's NOT bad. Just extremely tough, and a men of his times.

Ender's game is one of the movies that I can re watch multiple times.

Great List!! Maybe I shouldn't have skipped Total Recall (remake). Watching that in a few. I would place Looper at the top of what is currently available, as well. It would likely be the 6th time watching it , so I'll save that one for later. Only 1 of 4 movies on this list that I haven't seen. Reminded me that its been too long since I watched Repo Man. Thank you ❤

Battleship and Ender's Game are such a good movies imo. Matrix doesnt need an introduction really, but I guess we have to mention it from time to time so the young people have a chance to see it.

The Panos Cosmatos episode of Cabinet of Curiosity is by far the best of that anthology. Anyone who loved Mandy like I did needs to check it out. Also check out his other film Beyond the Black Rainbow, creepy, trippy sci-fi (psy-fi).

The viewing got better and better.

I saw Repo Man in the theater back in the day. Still holds a place in my heart. Everything, Everywhere, All at Once is better the second time around. The first time like you say can be tiring even though it is so much fun. But the second time around you can pay more attention to the story part of the movie and it had me all teary eyed. Love this movie. Michelle Yeoh is the best! whether the movie is bad or great, she is always good in it. And some of her movies are pretty bad.

Apple TV+ is the home for quality Sci-fi.

edgerunners deserves to be way higher imo - “I Really Want to Stay At Your House” by Rosa Walton notwithstanding

Cueing UP Total Recall NOW!

Aww I got excited the original Total Recall was on there LOL

I agree with Looper as the #1. It is one of the best time travel movies I have seen in recent years. Ender's Game is terrific too. I absolutely love the Enderverse books. Some of them explore what happened on earth with Ender's siblings and there is one (Ender's Shadow) which portrays the same events as Ender's Game but from the perspective of Bean! (who turns out to be an extraordinary character in his own right). A very clever and awesome story--it turns out there was actually a lot going on than the original story portrayed. However, I realized after rewatching the film on Netflix that I think I understand why the movie is only rated 6.6 on IMDB (much too low in my opinion). The reason is that, although Orson Scott Card had direct input into the movie and made sure it hit the high points, the book is so rich that it is hard to fit all the key elements and explanations into the movie. Such as: why are these young kids military geniuses? The book motivates this pretty well but the movie doesn't do as well.

Repo Man is on Netflix?!?! Hell yeah

I watched Voyagers before watching your video. It was great.

Putting Looper ahead of The Matrix would be a big call, but putting Looper ahead of the Matrix TRILOGY is a no brainer lol

Looper is the only one I can recommend

I need to watch “Battleship” again - the most interesting take I’ve seen online is that the alien ship is a mining ship that got stuck on Earth due to an accident, was only trying to signal for help to go home, and because of misunderstandings, was seen as an aggressive force for an invasion.

i dont think they will ever TOP EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE movie, in a long time, its just soooo SCIFISH but you dont even care about the physics of things, its that goood !!!!

Loopers is very good and very re-watchable. Matrix original definitely #1.

"Looper" is just incredible! There's no link for more sci-fi in the description...

The Cyberpunk game redeemed itself with updates since its original launch. It's now one of the best games and a success story.

Looper is awesomeness! I don't rate Enders Game very high tho.

Personally I love 2012's Total Recall, particularly the Directors Cut version. The 1990 version was great too but I have watched the 2012 version over a dozen times and I enjoy it every time. The 1990 version, I've watched maybe twice.

Which version of total recall is it ? The one with Ethan Hawke or the theatre cut?

what u didnt know about enders game......in the battle room with petra....theres a music playing.............that music beat is very similar to game of thrones starting intro

The Total Recall remake is visually very cool; it's good.

Split and Glass are 2 and 3 of a trilogy. You should include the 1st of it which is Unbreakable.

You are a most gifted critic.

Cyberpunk 2077 has actually been worked on, and it is now a solid game.

Looper is the best one.

Aliens versus cowboys that was a pretty good movie

Love Repo Man

Total Recall the sequel was definitely a good movie but at least for me, the supreme Kate Beckinsale action movie will always be Underworld, by a landslide.
