Yes, great pre-CGI models in that. Apparently they used the same stock footage of 'spaceships' as Battlestar Gallactica the Movie.

I recently watched The Martian, really enjoyed it. Also the Robocop remake, which I managed to sit through, but it wasn't great.

I was quite surprised to find a dvd of 'Dark Star' in a charity shop last week. Surprised both that it had been issued on dvd, and that it had ended up in the shop. I hadn't seen it in ages, but remembered most of it. Decidedly low-budget, but still entertaining. I was told once that it's the inspiration for the 'sprite' (players icon, or 'ship') and some of the audio in Williams 'Defender'.
This doesn't totally count as Sci-Fi, but it is brilliant. Crowdfunded, and released earlier this year.
Here's the Hoff doing the lead music for it as well

Bad Taste! OMG, so long since I've seen that! Hilarious And thumbs up to Equilibrium too.
I was very lucky to see 2001 in the cinema recently. Just a little 50 seater at South Hill Park Arts Centre in Bracknell, but much much better on a big screen. In fact, it was a proper retro trip as they did a 30 minute presentation beforehand discussing the films cultural impact and even had a proper 10 minute interval!
