Ya, I like The Time Machine too. Another good one. Wasn't it with Rod Taylor. That movie also had a good looking babe in it at the end.
All time favorite Sci Fi movie

For a moment, I thought you were talking about The Time Machine (2002) with Guy Pearce ... this movie sucked big time. The original 1960 version is a million times better, despite the outdated effects.
How about this classic, I am not sure as to the exact title, but it was about "Solyent Green"(spelling?) with Charlton Heston
Re: langeweile
Another of the classics that I forgot the name.
Scientists inject a mini sub in to a body to remove a tumour..what was the name of the movie?

I read the book before I saw the movie which I didn't realy like. I've found that if I like the book I wont like the movie and vice versa.burlboy said:

I agree, I don't think Dr Stangelove is categorized as Sci-Fi.
First Matrix was pretty good. The second and first were not so good, too much emphasis on special effects and not enough on plot.
Anybody see Equilibrium? It was pretty entertaining.
