>i know it's blasphemous but i actually prefer the newer solaris.
it has a nice soundtrack too.
i havent seen the whole old one, fell asleep trying to watch it
once. the new one was quite good though. there were some parts
from the book i would have liked to have seen (like when he went
out into the water/stuff to go to some little island type place)
but i think it had the best parts of the book's plot down pat. and
the soundtrack is quite nice, i wish it existed on vinyl.
>i agree with brazil. 12 monekys and fisher king dont seem so
techno to me tho
i think brazil and 12 monkeys are both pretty techno.
>the first mad max? no way, no it doesnt! both great movies, both
technooo. road warrior is techno too.
both of the first 2 mad max movies were great. the third was still
tolerable, but nowhere near as good.
>ghost in the shell (even tho it sucks)
what sucks about GITS? i thought the animation was good, and it
has possibly one of the best purely sci-fi plots outside of
bladerunner.
>ringu (just such great mood in this guy's movies, somewhat cold
and detached but very rich feeling, i dunno..)
ick. saw the US remake first (mmmm, naomi watts :) and hated it.
figured i must have missed something in the translation so i
rented the japanese version. i thought it was equally terrible and
fell asleep. ill check out his other joints though....
>the thing (john carpenter)
very techno
>american psycho? it's so angular and minimal..
yeah thats a great movie. dont know how techno id consider it...
>crouching tiger? no?
great movie, looking fwd to that "Hero" flick with jet li thats
along that fantasy/kung fu line.
i think howard the duck was pretty techno.
tom
