This genre is usually all about social commentaries, what happens when the world ends, when technology breaks down, when everything is possible because of science, and how all of that questions the human condition or, in some cases, defines what the human condition actually is. lolwhat. I mean. Space is pretty. I like stars. Dinosaurs rarrr. But here’s a starter kit for this awesome film genre. (~~That is, these movies kick-started my own interest so my bad if The Wrath of Khan, Tron, or The Terminator aren’t in here.~~ ETA: Uh, the ‘starter kit’ evolved a little. I just linked to as many movies as I could.) It includes some science-fiction classics (originals of recently released remakes), movies that started long-standing franchises, as well as contemporary ~masterpieces~. And Galaxy Quest. (Because it’s really fucking funny, alright.) Didn’t upload the sequels cause, uh, it was meant to be a starter kit. So. Just the starts, lawl. Message me if a link doesn’t work. I’ll re-upload the file. PS: One of the multi-part files has a .ppt format so after you download all the parts and join the files, change the extension to .avi.

Nolan wanted for Blade Runner prequel/sequel

batfaggery:

Recently, the independent production company Alcon purchased the rights to Blade Runner, meaning they can make films ‘of that universe’ (but, thankfully, not remake the film itself). When asked what ideas they had, they said “we don’t know, we just don’t know yet. When we know, we’ll let you know”, unsurprisingly.

When asked who they would ideally like to direct their new Blade Runner sequel or prequel, Kosove replied: “The methodology that Chris Nolan brought to Batman is precisely what we aspire to whomever the filmmaker is, whether Ridley [Scott] comes back and joins us or it’s someone else.”

Blade Runner is a favourite of Nolan’s, and considering he did Insomnia with Alcon, it’s certainly not impossible he may tackle the franchise. News only goes as far as speculation at this point, however.
