Which classic or underground Sci-Fi films does a robot recommend to a robot!?
i mean, specially those with good sound tracks!
PS: Here you can watch a few older ones online to start with!

Watching some of The Day The Earth Stood Still kind of reminded me about the original The Thing (from Another World) as well as John Carpenter's remake of The Thing. Both are amazing.
i wonder if Twin Peaks could fit this topic???
Angelo Badalamenti for sure....
2001: A Space Odyssey - Stanley Kubrick
metropolis - fritz lang
I think this is the most impressive film i've seen in quite a while, if only there were movies made now that have gotten at least a half of the attention to set design and detail as that movie, i'd be watching shit 24-7
I don't know if you'd call it underground, but Children of Men is an amazing film. I loved Michael Caine as the hippie Jasper.
yep "chlidren of men" is very nice ;-)
check also "Solaris" (1972) by Andrei Tarkovsky. Music by Eduard Artemyev.
Not the recent american remake...

agreed. amasing film and probably (in my opinion) one of the best sci-fi's
Thanks for the link metalman!
Some more essential stuff to watch:
TRON
The War Of The Worlds
The Andromeda Strain
Blade Runner
Dune
And when it comes to Sci-Fi Horror, David Cronenberg is my choice. The Fly, The Brood, The Dead Zone, Scanners... All good.
Don't forget the master James Cameron:
Terminatorbest B movie ever with excellent sound track.
AliensProbably the best action film ever. The first one: Alienby Ridley Scott is also a masterpiece. DON'T see any of the others. they are mega crap
The Abysscould maybe have been one the best one ever if it didn't have disney-cute-ish ending which is a bit sad.
The Thing
Logan's Run
this one kicks ass!!!

i really like this film, directed by Douglas Trumbull who did the effects on 2001.
John carpenters first film, funny as hell, written and stars also Dan O'Bannon who wrote Alien.
RobotMonster and Forbidden planet
check also "Solaris" (1972) by Andrei Tarkovsky. Music by Eduard Artemyev.

I really enjoyed the remake. The soundtrack (by Cliff Martinez) is beautiful also.
is this thread a gift to me from the gods?
it sure feels like it
Aelita (??????) (1924) (!)
o_O
...and La Femme sur la Lune (Frau im Mond) by Fritz Lang (1929) is great too

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
Starship Troopers
The Fountain
Dune
Blade Runner
(Twin Peaks if we're counting that)

both of these films are uber-coolex.
I also like the Danny Boyle movie Sunshine, although it is neither a classic nor particularly underground.
I thought this was cool
