I know everyone is focused on The upcoming Horror Marathon but I watched a fun Sci-Fi movie over the weekend that I wanted to talk about so I started this thread.....
Sunday afternoon I went to my Brothers house for our annual viewing of "Independence Day" (We always watch the DVD that had the Extended scenes since that has yet to make it on to BluRay) and after Will Smith and Jeff Goldblum were done saving the planet from the Alien Scum my Brother asked me if I wanted to watch a Bluray he just bought, the movie was called "
Journey to the far side of the sun" (aka Doppelgänger) and it sounded like fun so I said sure and we watched it...
Let me tell you, this little British science-fiction film from 1969 would be PERFECT for the marathon, in fact I can't believe Bruce has never shown this one, I had to go back into the Vitruvianzeke's Hall of Marathonia just to make sure I didn't miss this one at 4am at a previous marathon, and once I verified that it had not I knew I had to mention it on this board. This movie has it all...cheesy special effects, Robots, space ships, spies, gadgets and it's all set in a future that looks like the 70's!!
So here is my start to the 2016 Wish List:
Journey to the far side of the Sun
Jason X
This year I would like to read some of your stories as to why you think a particular movie would be great to add to the lineup
