*Metropolis (1927)
*Forbidden Planet (1956)
*Serenity (2005)
*The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951) (Followed by Patricia Neal Q+A)
*Mad Max (1979)
...they played The Terminator and Starship Troopers too, but when Mad Max finished it was past midnight, and we had to walk back through a bad part of town.

Some really cool flicks...
Now you know why the robot of Forbidden Planet was a huge hit back then.
(I still have the action figure of it somewhere)
