I just saw a movie I had never heard of on the Sci-Fi channel that had space combat. I'm often looking to watch space combat films, but I don't know of any I haven't seen yet. I thought it would be a good post to have people list the movies, so others and myself can look for them if we're at a video store looking for these types of films- try to give some detail as to the extent of space combat in the movie..
The movie I just saw was "Total Reality" made in 1997. It begins with a fuball of fighters fighting around a massive ship. They have a marine ship that unloads marines to take the ship. After this scene there's no major space combat and the movie is decent but not good. I was just happy to see that opening scene.
Other movies with space combat:
WCM (obviously): lots of combat
Star Wars Series: lots of combat especially in Ep. IV and VI
Battle Star Galacticas (old and new series): not really a movie, but some nice space combat. The old ones have bad graphics.
The Last Starfighter: A little bit of space combat with really bad graphics.
Starship Troopers: Not much space combat, but you can watch some huge starships take a beating.
I'm sure there are some good space combat scenes in Star Trek movies, but I don't know which ones.
Andromeda, a T.V. series, has some good space combat scenes. Especially in the opening show.
Babylon 5, another T.V. series, has some space combat but I never seemed to get lucky. Whenever I watched it, they seemed to just deal with diplomatic problems.
Farscape, yet another T.V. series, has some space combat.
The Stargate T.V. series' will occasionally have space combat.
In addition to adding movies/T.V. series' you've seen, feel free to elaborate on ones already posted (i.e. which episodes, amt. of combat, etc..).
