    He was commenting on the misspelling of "Blade" in Chris' post. (He spelled it "Balde", hence the Yul Brenner comment).

      That's Blade Runner!... not Balde Runner (which is what Chris wrote) - last time I try to be funny :rolleyes: I simply adore Blade Runner... and Rutger Hauer's death scene is great... Is West World watchable? I had never heard about it!

            Nah, Serenity was pretty cool, but I liked I, Robot better!

                  1. Serenity 2. Star Wars 3. Blade Runner 4. Planet of the Apes 5. The Matrix 6. Alien 7. Forbidden Planet 8. 2001: A Space Odyssey 9. The Terminator 10. Back to the Future According to a survey by SFX[^] magazine on the BBC[^] news website. Pretty much my top 10 other than that I would have had Planet of the Apes at number 2 as an extraordinarily different film (the book upon which the film is based is excellent).

                  That's an interesting list, because except for Serentiy, I can almost specifically point to each of those films as rather 'groundbreaking' for their day - whether it as a new twist to Sci-Fi storylines (in movies of course) or for special effects or something. I truly fail to see what might be so special about Serenity.

                    WestWorld was different in its day as well. I vageuly remember seeing that in the theatre when it first came out. Its sequel, FutureWorld, not so good.

                      you should.:^) Started from a show called FireFly, got cancelled, made bunch o' monnies on DVD sales, made a movie called Serenity. 'Indiana Jones in space' is a good call, although 'Deadwood meets Red Dwarf + awesomeness' could qualify. I live in Belgium, and there is no way our stupid TV companies are ever going to air a cancelled TV-show. But it is the greatest show ever. And the movie diserves the credit.

                          I use phrases 'best ___ ever' constantly, so it's probably not really credible. and I tried a few FarScape eps, never really got the hang of it... was too star-trekkie
