SE4 Movies

[gregebowman]

I'll agree with most of those. I've never heard of a sci-fi movie called Imposter though. Maybe a foreign film? But I think the most obvious movie that wasn't mentioned was Star Wars. You know, large imperial fleets crushing small rebel fleets/planets. Star Trek wasn't mentioned either, but forcibly taking planets and getting into interstellar wars was never the Federation way (nor Roddenberry's vision of the future). There are probably other movies that could fit into the SEIV universe, but I can't think of any right now.

Hey, long time no see. Glad to have you back.

The Impostor is a 2002 B-movie with Gary Senise and Madeleine Stowe. They were playing it in one of the movie channels.
The story is in the second half of this century, and first contact was with a race that we call the Centaury because first contact was in Alpha Centaury. They are "genetically superior" (genetic manipulation?) to us, and they don't want to negotiate, they want Earth....
Earth is covered with a shield to protect from the frecuent Centaury bombing raids, and there are frecuent engagement between Earth fighters and Centauries. We have colonies in Alpha Centaury, and one of them got glassed, so our Chancellor vowed revenge.
The Centaury then send one of their new "cyborg clones" that carry inside its heart the new secret Centaury U-Bomb to atent to kill the Chancellor, and Earth's counter-intelligence have to stop him.

I think this movie is a perfect SE4 movie. It fits like a glove.

Are there any other movies that I should add to my "SE4 collection"?

The Last Starfighter?
Oh yeah, it was about some video game use to train fighters pilots.
Something like a Ship Training Facility.

Not a movie, but TV series:

Andromeda:

Transit Via Slipstream: Portals that link multiple star systems (not exactly warppoints, but damn close)

Anti Proton cannons, Missiles, Point Defense, Lack of newtonian movement, Fighters, Drones, planetary bases, weapons platforms, racial bonuses, point singularity weapons (null space cannons) Stellar manipulations, ships that don't wear down over time, AI's, troops/vehicles, and more!

Ever get the feeling the writers/producers of Andromeda are SEIV fans?

I think I've seen it in the guide, but I never checked out cause I thought it was a series about that old movie of the same name.
