Well, you knew I'd chime in on all of them, right? Actually, there were so many that I had to just say I hadn't seen that I pared it down.
A Scanner Darkly - Animated Phillip K Dick... Haven't seen it, but how bad could it be?
Creature - Kinski puts the K in Kreepy, but I haven't seen this one.
Transformers - Fun popcorn. I never watched the cartoon or played with the toys but I still enjoyed it. You'll have to take it with a heaping helping of WSoD, particularly near the end when the soldiers decide the best course of action when being pursued by major baddies is to head directly to a major population center so they can put a couple million civilians at risk.
The Road Warrior - still? Cripes. I forget, have you seen Mad Max?
Pitch Black 2000 - Best role I've seen Vin Diesel in. Very creepy. Skip the sequel in which they make the mistake of trying to make Diesel more heroic. I swear I'm not making this up: There's a scene in which they're trying to get somewhere before the sunrises because it will fry them to a crisp on contact and they're climbing up a mountain and the rising sun is pursuing them up the mountain. Yes the rising sun somehow strikes the bottom of a mountainfirst on this planet.
Death Race 2000 (1975). - Just saw it this year. Ehn. It was okay but your life won't be incomplete if you skip it.
Alien: Resurrection (1997); - you know how the quality degrades when you photocopy a photocopy....?
Innerspace (1987); - Seen bits and pieces of it. Let me know if it's worth actually putting in my queue
V for Vendetta (2006) - Very good. Hugo Weaving actually manages to convincingly axt expressively and subtly inside a Guy Fawkes mask. I realize this is heresy, but the movie is better than the book. The book was written in 6 page chunks while Moore was still learning the craft.
THX 1138 (1971); - I think Doc is the only person I know who's actually seen it. I suspect it's only watchable as a historic document.
A boy and his Dog (1975); - I actually liked it quite a bit, although it kind of feels like a made for TV movie with cursing. I think you'll get a kick out of the creepy pasty stepford amish underground dwellers.
Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow (2004); - Yep. more popcorn. Fun but no depth. It looks like someone's RPG campaign gone big screen.
The Abyss (1989); Alexis is pretty much on the money with her review. Still worth watching and then mentally writing your own better ending.
The Fly/The Fly 2 horror with heavy SF elements. I didn't see two, but I know you'll like the first one.
Gattaca (1997); All my geek friends tell me I need to see this.
HG Well's War of the World - cripes, they do keep remaking that in one form or another don't they. I'm leary of the star, although apparently he's starring in something called "Mutant Vampirs Zombies from the 'Hood" this year.
Outland (1981) I Remember not liking this much but being so completely forgettable that I've never felt the need to speak out about it.
Dinocroc (2004); - Your making this crap up, right?
Teenage Caveman (2002); - wouldn't it be easier and less painful to just flagelate yourself?
Blood of heroes (1989); - How many cheesy genre flicks can Rutger Howard be in?
Starship Troopers 2; - um, I'm NOT curious unless you can promise me an even more fascist Doogie Howzer.
The Wolves of kromer (1998); a German gay werewolf romance? How is this SF?
Cerberus (2005); The real horror here is that I can still remember all the lyrics to BJ and the bear, and regalled/terrorized my game night friends with it. I've seen parts of a few flicks in this genre and they're never real good..
Spaced out (1979); - well, you've got my curiousity peaked.
The Brothers Grimm (2005); - scattered and sad. I so wanted this to be more enjoyable than it was.
