Automata: Robot Freedom

Knights of Sadonia: Anime series, haven't watched the second season yet, but the first was quite good

Black Mirror: BBC Twilight Zone like show

Primer: Realistic look at time travel and how mind bending it is, tends to take more than one viewing

Troll Hunter: Fantasy (cause there are trolls) but very well done, Documentary/found footage style movie

... all on netflix

edit: Formating

Oh my, you have to watch season 2 of Knights of Sidonia, I can't wait for season 3 if they follow the Manga story line (I made a subverse for the series/Manga...I'm the only one there:( ).

I tried to get into Knights of Sedonia, but honestly when I saw mechs I was somewhat turned off. Should I suck it up and give it a real go?

I gotta watch Brazil. People keep mentioning it. I saw Equilibrium, that was entertaining but didn't make me think.

OK, ignoring the bigger names, which I assume you've seen already, here are some suggestions:

I would love to see a reboot of "they live" Fantastic premise!

Snow Piercer is on netflix and is pretty good. Predestination (yes, ok, The book was better) is worth a watch. Just rewatched Dark City recently, so that's on my mind. Brazil was mentioned, definitely out there and a cut above. Moon is pretty recent and didn't really get the credit it deserved. Along those lines, Pandorum was alright, had a budget. Forbidden Planet is an oldie, and if you can get past the animation style, tells a really interesting tale.

I'll check out Brazil, I've seen the rest. Predestination was cool. Great movie imo.

I loved snowpiercer - I went into it not expecting anything, and was completely blown away.

IDK, SF has always been so hit and miss, mainly miss. Not to mention that many films with a SF setting -- for example set in the future or in some alternate reality -- are actually some other genre, such as horror.

If you watch a shit tonne of SF films then I can understand that you'd get the impression that the genre is dying. But there was a preponderance of crap SF in the 60s, 70, 80s...

If you haven't seen Ex Machina then be sure to put that on your list; it's great SF and great movie making. Otherwise here's a couple older films that are not great SF but just plain fun to watch: Ice Pirates and Flash Gordon.

Saw Ex Machina, I liked that one. Was a decent flick for sure. Have not seen Ice Pirates. Wrote that down. Have seen my main man Flash Gordon though.

Ex Machina, Predestination, Source Code and Looper are all good sci-fi movies with a fairly original premise.

Less well known recent sci-fi movies I liked are Coherence, The Signal, Timecrimes, Blindness, and Europa Report.
