My favorites from the list:
1956 -- Forbidden Planet (it used to play almost non-stop on the cable channels)
1960 -- The Time Machine
1968 -- 2001 A Space Odyssey
1971 -- The Andromeda Strain
1977 -- Close Encounters of the Third Kind
1980 -- Altered States
1983 -- Brainstorm
1985 -- Real Genius (hey, it's on the wiki list -- not much SciFi, though. Pretty accurate account of my undergrad.)
1996 -- Mars Attacks! ("It's not unusual...")
2000 -- Red Planet
2004 -- Alien Versus Predator (sequel is due out later this year!)
Oh I saw that one! Every living animal on the planet disappeared except for those who were momentarily dead when the ...whatever... happened.Maxwells Demon said:all right.. I once saw a really cool sci-fi movie.. Think it was called Red Dust or Red Planet.. This astronaut ends up at a beautiful beach on some foreign planet, after going through a wormhole, I think.

They'd have had to rebuild it?Stingray said:The aliens stated that they would not allow the tunnel to be used again for some time. At least that was in the book, if not the movie.
On a more practical level, nobody wanted to rebuild the thing. It was extraordinarily expensive and didn't appear to work.
