Thanks for that, Vector. Good answer!

Pi? Sorry, I'm not familiar with that movie, Edge.

Don't get me wrong, I thoroughly enjoyed 'The Matrix'. I just think 'Pi' is the better movie.
It's like comparing 'The Da Vinci Code' to Umberto Eco's 'Foucault's Pendulum' - great vs brilliant.

Pi is excellent.

I do remember the movie poster image, now that I see it at IMDB. Pi must have been one of those films that went under the radar. Sounds very interesting. I'll have to check it out one of these days.

Hmm, I missed it completely. And it seems to contain so many things I'm interested in. Thanks Edge, will have to keep an eye out for it.

Like a badass Sith on a rampage, Star Wars: Episode III is hacking and slashing its way up the rankings on my all-time favorite sci-fi list. I'll survey the carnage later and see where things stand.

LOL! Empire Strikes Back still has high ground, but yes, Episode III was fun.

I agree with Matrix (yet again) EP III has soared past some movies on my list that I thought were unconquerable. It won't get past HOPE or EMPIRE but dang!

Episode 4 > Episode 5 IMHO
theres something about having obi-wan in it that makes it 10x better...

I'm interested in seeing what people think of ep III in a month or two; I think some people are carried away with the fever. In retrospect it may diminish.

I still say Episode 3 keeps getting better each time I see it, acting aside. There are a lot of little things in it that you miss the first time. I still say Ep 5 is the best in the series.
Has anyone mentioned Time Bandits?
