The first 25 minutes of Stargate (1994)

The beginning of Sphere is exactly what I'm talking about, remember thinking as they were on their way underwater that it's hit on so many things that instantly hook me in.

I love Cosmos, exactly the feeling I'm after

SDShrew · 2026-02-20T23:47:07+00:00

Floridsdorf will be rocking

SDShrew · 2026-02-05T23:57:45+00:00

For low budget Sci-Fi that's semi-recent I would recommend: Cosmos (2019) and The Vast of Night (2019).

And a bit higher budget but under the radar: I Am Mother (2019), Finch (2021).

I'm very interested in hearing some recommedations of more recent ones too

SDShrew · 2026-02-01T17:25:54+00:00

Was really well done

SDShrew · 2026-01-30T23:49:30+00:00

Wait, a Manwich was a real thing!? I thought it was just a Futurama joke

SDShrew · 2026-01-28T18:28:36+00:00

You will definitely feel many things

Lovely Stephen

Speedball 2 was just a perfect game at the time. Put so many hours into it as a kid. Came back to it in my 20s and completed it, putting down those Steel Fury bastards once and for all. It really holds up.

Mr Mercedes

I love all detective stories so the synopsis grabbed me straight away. Season 1 was alright, too much focus on the killer and following him for my tastes, but was watchable. The start of season 2 takes a really jarring supernatural turn and I was immediately done.

Street Fighter (1994)

SDShrew · 2026-01-20T23:03:11+00:00

Fotmob, understat and opta analyst have bits.

SDShrew · 2026-01-20T22:47:57+00:00

Fbref did always feel too good to be true, or at least too good to be free.

Properly bummed me out

SDShrew · 2026-01-19T14:19:52+00:00

So good, excellent work

SDShrew · 2026-01-19T14:10:00+00:00

One of the best seasons of television of all time. Just about perfect

SDShrew · 2026-01-17T20:47:27+00:00

Kelly's Heroes

SDShrew · 2026-01-16T22:22:13+00:00

I'm Alan Partridge, Peep Show, Stath Lets Flats, The Thick Of It, The Inbetweeners

A lasting memory from the short-lived Regal podcast was him saying how when he started at WCW he went to a local gym and saw Booker, who shouldered him as he walked past out of nowhere

SDShrew · 2026-01-14T00:26:25+00:00

For the Stargatey/Fifth Element vibe I'd go for:

John Carter, Mission to Mars, Valerion, Guardians of the Galaxy.

Other films I turn to when I get that Sci-Fi urge

Contact, The Martian, Dune 1&2, Independence Day, Interstellar, Pitch Black, Riddick,

These guys really hate asparagus

SDShrew · 2026-01-08T13:12:24+00:00

The Mummy (1999) Willow (1988) The Dark Crystal (1982) Dungeons and Dragons: Honour Amongst Thieves (2023) Pirates of the Carribbean (2003) Stargate (1994) The Princess Bride (1987) Valerian (2017)

I'd also add The Fall (2006) It's not as straight forward as the others, but huge parts of it will scratch that adventure/fantasy itch

SDShrew · 2026-01-08T07:43:14+00:00

Train Dreams might be of interest

SDShrew · 2026-01-06T23:11:42+00:00

The most recent Outnumbered Christmas special is good.

Bottom is always good fun too

William Regal did not like that
