The Ohio Sci-Fi and Horror Marathons

Before the last marathon there was a thread suggesting films from that year that might be shown.
As it worked out Safety Not Guaranteed, Vanishing Waves, and Upside Down were all more or less current, with Inception being the most current big movie.

Anything within the realm of possibility of the recent stuff that you'd like to suggest?

Personally I missed all of the recent biggies, with the exception of IM3, partly on the assumption that I'd be seeing most at the three marathons I intend to attend in the next 12 months. I am pretty much out of the discussion, but am interested in others' suggestions.

I wouldn't mind seeing Europa Report or Last Day on Mars.

I always enjoy the "near future / our solar system" setting for sci-fi movies. There aren't enough of them.

I wouldn't mind Europa Report. I heard they worked with NASA to try to get the science right.

I watched Europa Report last night. Pretty good movie, although it felt pretty familiar plotwise. I think it would be a good marathon movie for the big screen in Blu-ray or DCP.

Since there is a 35mm print of the non cannon Dr Who and the Daleks available try to book it.

Or, if you can't find a print of "The Last Man on Earth", try to book "The Omega Man" with Mr. NRA planet of the apes escapee CHARLETON HESTON!
