Just looking for some recommendations because I’m in a sci fi mood. And btw, my favorite sci fi film is Planet of the Apes (original).

Alien. It was well made and it aged well. I’m a sucker for scary, atmospheric films.
This is my pick. I wish the rest of the movies had the same feel. The set design was the best and told it’s own story. Aliens was a disappointment for me. I wanted them to explore the lore more.
For me it was the opposite. Alien disappointed me and Aliens lived up to the expectation (actually saw Aliens first though)
Watching the original Alien in a theatre with a group of friends, almost none of whom had any idea what was coming, is one of those indelible experiences of my youth.
So is lining up to see the original Star Wars (The Last Hope) after having been impressed by the trailer that was shown before ‘Robin and Marion’ the previous November. I never would have imagined after seeing it that the franchise would eventually evolve to be dystopian.
One great 70s science fiction movie that I only got to see later on television was Silent Running. It deserves more attention.
I sometimes wish I was older (I was born in 1989, after a lot of my favorite movies came out).
A New Hope :P Though it was just called “Star Wars” originally
😹😹. Our kids correct me constantly, and is annoyed when I say that it wasn’t called that when I first saw it.
I can see why it would be jarring to call the original “Episode IV”
It’s the perfect life form
