Grrsly Adams Family Vacation

My friends…I need recommendations for #scifimovies that take place almost entirely on ships or stations in space.

I really liked #Rubikon most recently. But there are pretty much 50 movies everyone lists and I need more #scifi or #horror goodness. Pandorum and Event Horizon are great, Alien franchise ofc.

I’m actually watching the old Star Trek movies because I’m such a space cadet right now.

@grryboy While not a movie, this request reminds me that I need to rewatch Red Dwarf.

@giantspecks Thanks for this one!

I should be compiling a list soon!

Show threadJohn HardenMay 13, 2023
@grryboy Following you and looking forward to seeing that list. Also should include PASSENGERS, much maligned for a tone-deaf ending but up until that, 90% a good sci-fi (and again, 100% onboard a spaceship). Also, if you’re including TV, don’t forget “The Starlost”

@grryboy Space Sweepers is a Korean Netflix original about a crew that scraps ships and junk, it's pretty solid. I remember it being a really fun watch.
