All Things:Science Fiction/Fantasy

Speaking of space accident movies...
I just got my all-time if it's on and I'm flipping channels I can't not watch movies...don't ask me why, it's just one of those movies. (number 2 is Rudy)

ROCKETMAN with Harland Williams!!!!! I got it cheap on DVD, if it was on BR I don't know if I'd buy it.
 
LOVE ROCKETMAN. Harland Williams is terribly underrated. And yes, I do think Disney finally put it on a bare bones US blu(rather inexpensive) after it was available for a long time as an other regions version. Worth mentioning...the terrific William Sadler as the uptight straight man to his shenanigans. Look folks, it ain't for cineastes, but if you like a good dumb fun movie a la Ace Ventura...check it out. Lots of mugging for the camera and a genuine space chimp. Thanks for getting me started Fisch.

We now return this thread to its regularly scheduled programming.

Oh yeah, and you will find out what happens when astronauts are tethered and one of them breaks wind...yeah it's that kind of movie folks.


Liked it better than Gravity.

A fart should have no effect since the space suit is self contained and the fart would be isolated from the outside world. I certainly hope they handled the question in a scientifically valid manner.

One of my daughters' favorite movies! We have never found on DVD (but I will admit my wife probably wasn't looking real hard ...).

Jonathan Glazer Talks At The LFF About Under The Skin's Unusual Score, Listen To What Inspired The Choice - Bleeding Cool Comic Book, Movies and TV News and Rumors

It was very important that the music worked with the soundscape. With the soundtrack and the sounds that Scarlett’s character hears. The interpretive world of sound. The idea was not really for you to understand where the music started and stopped and where the sounds started and stopped. So, very close work between her and Johnnie Burn [the supervising sound editor] creating a soundscape really.

'Pariah' Director Dee Rees Bringing Philip K. Dick’s ‘Martian Time-Slip’ To The Big Screen | The Playlist

Deadline reports that Rees will adapt and direct Philip K. Dick’s "Martian Time-Slip" for the big screen. As as is usual for anything from the pen of Dick, the story concerns space, paranoia, faceless authority and much more. Here's the Amazon synopsis of the book:

On an arid Mars, local bigwigs compete with Earth-bound interlopers to buy up land before the UN develops it and its value skyrockets. Martian Union leader Arnie Kott has an ace up his sleeve, though: an autistic boy named Manfred who seems to have the ability to see the future. In the hopes of gaining an advantage on a Martian real estate deal, powerful people force Manfred to send them into the future, where they can learn about development plans. But is Manfred sending them to the real future or one colored by his own dark and paranoid filter? As the time travelers are drawn into Manfred's dark worldview in both the future and present, the cost of doing business may drive them all insane.
