i love sci-fi books and movies.  at least the good ones.  i have recently taken to reading a lot of william gibson (the man who coined the term cyberpunk) ... really good stuff.

i have seen no man's land ... very good and very poignant.  La Haine is even more so.  was made in the early to mid 90s (before vincent cassel was a superstar and when mattheu kassovitz was a director not an actor).  very prophetic and very meaningful

Have you ever seen the show Captain Scarlet?

the one with the thunderbird like puppets?  i saw some episodes while they were doing re-runs on daytime tv.

Yes, that one. There was a scene where they went to an hotel. But it was really a secret base. So they entered a lift shaft, but then the awesomeness began. The lift remained stationary while the whole building moved. I love all those crazy SF mechanics people come up with in the 60s.
