Harrington Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 So my fellow sci-fi fans... just wondering what your favourite movie/tv space battle is? It's kinda hard to choose just one, so you can pick a few if you want. My own... A New Hope (the x-wing assault on the deathstar) Revenge of the Sith (opening orbit battle sequence) Starship Troopers (the orbital battle above Klendathu) Babylon 5 (the final Minibari assault on Earth) Battlestar Galactica (the entire New Caprica rescue) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubsa Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 I don't know whether it's the best, but I just can't get enough of the X-wing Deathstar assault. It rocked my ickle socks when I first saw it, and it still does today. Goosebumps, I say, goosebumps! This is how much you all raised for charity. Thank you.

angryjoe Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 i would say the bsg new caprica rescue thing but for its time and all ill have to agree with bubsa and say the x - wing attack on the death star. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Striker6 Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 I agree with what you said about revenge of the sith opening battle scene that has some pretty amusing lines in it if I remember rightly. Also at the end of return of the jedi is pretty good. Starship troopers is an awful film in my opinion but you're right about the space battle that is pretty cool, doesn't the captain woman get trapped in the closing door when they're evacuating :lol: what a death though...

Mercifull Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 The ending of Exodus, Part II and escape from New Caprica is by far the best thing ive ever seen in a scifi show possibly ever. It totally kicks the [wagon] of all the other scenes you listed. Mercifull <3 Suzi "We don't want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape.

assassin_696 Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 I don't know whether it's the best, but I just can't get enough of the X-wing Deathstar assault. It rocked my ickle socks when I first saw it, and it still does today. Goosebumps, I say, goosebumps! Of the ones i've seen, that was my favourite by far.

indy500fan Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 As soon as I saw this I was thinking "everyone is going to say Star Wars. I'm going to have to bring up BSG". Turns out everyone else thought of it already :P . Babylon 5 (the final Minibari assault on Earth) For some reason I can't remember all that much about B5. I do remember a space battle I think was the Vorlons (sp?) against the Shadows, with the other various races kind of joining in, also I think the "first ones" were a part of it too. It's quite possible that in my memory all the different space battles got merged into one huge, epic battle, but yeah that battle was my one of the best :D . As a Browncoat I feel I must mention the space battle in Serenity, it was pretty good space battle wise but the whole thing was just awesome: [hide]Serenity coming out of the fog/cloud thing, followed by hundreds of Reaver ships.[/hide] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrington Posted April 28, 2007 Author Share Posted April 28, 2007 Oh man, I forgot about the battle in Serenity... that was pretty darn spectacular. I remember that Babylon 5 battle. Sheriden managed to finally get the Shadows and Vorlons to fight one another... The battle I was thinking of was the one from the movie In The Beginning. Has anyone seen Star Wreck? Specifically, the lastest one The Perkinning? The space battles in that are amazing despite being an amateur production. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dread_rasta Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 I don't watch too many sci-fi movies but the best battle scene in my opinion is the x-wing assault on the death star. It's a classic Nodding DuckRange: 71/80|Strenght:70/70 |Currently starting at members| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
