[Thread Game] Guess That Movie or TV Show(non-anime)

No but I still have not seen it.

There’s been a bunch, especially from the UK .. but Dark Sun, or Black Sun, is the only one I can name off the top of my head… oh, and our mystery TV Show…

.. alright, I will :slight_smile:

I tried to get into Space 1999 .. I struggled with the ‘science’ of that one.

I wouldn’t call Black Sun sci-fi really, in the traditional sense. It was a great idea that got shit canned after one good season.

I picked our mystery show looking for another one .. the name has escaped me ..

First season was good. Second season they brought in the same guy that was brought in for the third season of TOS which got it cancelled, and so he got Space 1999 cancelled too. Fred Freiberger. Said the show didn’t have enough action so he fired the guy that played Victor and brought in Maya. I still like both seasons. I would LOVE to see this series rebooted and am shocked it hasn’t been!

Hmm .. maybe .. I’ll have to get further into it. There’s definitely some solid sci-fi ..

I think I’ve seen it, or at least some of it.

Is it “Another Life” by any chance?

No, not Another Life. Good guess, but there were two seasons.

I’m a big fan of Sackhoff’s work, and that show. I was sad they didn’t make more.. though there’s a chance they may.

I like Katie, but “Another Life” didn’t click for me :frowning:

OK, another try… there was this one season show scripted by George R.R. Martin.
I have seen it, but admittedly, had to check IMDB for the title.

Is it “Nightflyers”?

Yes, it is Nightflyers.

Well played, the game is yours …

Both “Another Life” and “Nightflyers” aired at pretty much the same time. Maybe that’s why I got them confused.

A good show, like You said, I wish there was more of it.

I will post next entry either within 2 hours, or tomorrow.

This is a 1980’s movie, which gives us:

Carvings on a planet surface:

Space ships of all shapes and sizes:

Sagely Japanese scientists:

People wearing red latex to work:

…and much more to be disclosed at a later date!

Definitely not ringing any bells yet.

If I am remembering correctly this is an entry from the land of the rising sun.

It is indeed, although the spoken dialog is both English and Japanese.
EDIT: With a bit of German - thrown in for a good measure.

I don’t know it, but I’m sooo gonna watch it :grin:

But it is not a large WWII era battleship in space or is it?

No, it is not Battelship Yamato.

They have McDonalds though - SPACE! McDonalds.

There are lots of space ships, even space-ship-shipping ones.
