^ by gum yes! They are worthy films, and I have the DvDs on my shelf, will have to watch them again now, for reresh. And everone in them wore space suits!

Thank goodness there are more than just one good 'real' sci-fi space movies out there then. I'll have to contact David Stratton (film critique, au), and remind him (I was quoting him originally, from his review of Gravity)...

Oh, forgot Europa Report. Pity they didn't do a better job of that one, had great potential.

2001 is a 60's film - sadly not a documentary. Unlike Prometheus of course, which was filmed as it happened

It's really sad that in 60s they predicted Moon and Mars bases in 90s and now we aren't even going to the Moon... I mean, ISS is cool and all, but it's like staying on a beach instead of sailing though the oceans...

I want another Space Race!

(also, did someone seriously thought that Space Odyssey was made in 2001?

)

I noticed the same thing and started to worry.

Previous X games a very weak AI which can't fly correctly and bumps and gets destroyed making the use of them very limited and frustating.
