I really like the 90's sci-fi genera, and these obscure gems are great (They Live).

I really believe that the US culture prior to 9-11 was really on the cusp of something (Matrix, Fight Club, Truman Show, just thoughts off the bat).

They Live takes the cake for something I had never heard of.

60's/70's was awesome too: Planet of the Apes, Logan's Run, Soylent Green, Omega Man

honorable mention in a decade alone: Idiocracy

--no one ever mentions Akira anymore (or anime)

The expanse is good scifi show, 12 monkeys, Sunshine. All those prior 9/11 movies you mention all had an "office theme" Cubicle if you will... It was a huge 90's trend. As far as anime, Your Name(2016), saw that and thought it wasn't bad. Laughed a few good ones.

12 monkeys is awesome -- I thought about mentioning that the other day.

ps. I start to read reviews and I almost have to take the opposite side [sunshine]: I see six reviews of-the-bat for unequivocally awesome and I'm back in that movie about aliens and a def girl and a woman with a shotgun...some guy dies...its a cult classic!

Dark City is a great film.

Soldier (Kurt Russle) is a great low budget sci fi I really like.. Also an even lower budget movie, A Boy and His Dog (Don Johnson) is great.

The word is genre, for future reference. It's pronounced kinda like 'jahn rah', if you're curious.

are you a damn bot? Dark [noun] -- completely unrelated material...no, no, I like shit that has "Dark" as the first word of the title followed by a random noun.
