AndrewC: just imagine waking from a long sleep, being still groggy, seeing your "kids" at your doorsteps and not only are they intelligent and evolved, but also cruel (yelling and hitting at the girl) and trying to take over your place (creating life of their own in the form of David) - I for one wouldn't want such a kid as a heritage.
One wonders if that was the general theme that Bioware was aiming for with ME3's ending and the God-Child. Maybe Ridley Scott and Damon Lindelof should have done the ending?

DodoGeo: Lately the art of subtlety is lost in current Hollywood and I'm getting really tired of movies trying too hard explaining everything long and in detail to the audience because they are too stupid to figure anything out for themselves.
That was the reason why I really didn't like Inglorious Bastards as much I hoped I would. I didn't need Tartantino pointing out every single important character or plot detail with a great big neon sign. It's why I've always liked anime films like Patlabor/Patlabor 2, or Wings of Honneamise, in that so many important details are presented in very subtle ways to the audience.

anjohl: Man From Earth
I believe this is the correct title, and yes, I'm pretty sure it kicks Moon's ass, District 9's too, but not by much on the latter.

I've never heard of Man From Earth. Who made it?

On a related note, Dark City is probably the best movie I've ever seen in terms of "intelligent and deep sci fi." I heard Ink is pretty good too.

BOTH!

I and the friend with whom I've seen the movie usually hate 3D films, but this one was really good. So I'd go see it in 3D, and if you can, Imax 3D (nice big screen, great contrast, all that jazz).

I gave my opinion on that in the last paragraph of post 27 (this thread). You'll have to decide for yourself.

I loved Moon. It reminded me of Solaris in all the best ways.

i think both blade runner and a clockwork orange are better intelligent scifi than dark city. would aslo include stalker to that list but its an aquired taste. Moon was also great.

One of my favorite intelligent scifi novels is Mockingbird. People should give it a read.

That reminds me, I always liked this strange movie with David Bowie called The Man Who Fell to Earth

Although I'd like alien 4 to be only a bad dream, I must agree with this statement. Prometheus is bad. So bad I almost went out from theater before it ended. Shit movie.
Prometheus, how I'd love to love that movie...

Fantastic visuals, a premise full of potential, an experienced director and a bunch of great actors. How can you mess this up?

Trust the talentless to find a way...
