The Comet Empire vs the Earth Defense Forces when they fought near Saturn.

A good fight at least until the Comet Empire mothership showed up.

I thought it was cool enough just seeing Dark Helmet try to pursue Lone Starr through space at ludicrous speed leaving a trail of plaid.

Yes, I know it's not a TV show or movie...

Yeah that was a fun as hell game. I wish they would come out with a cool space flight sim like that

It seems that genre never gets any attention and it's one of my favorites.

Those JSF's are just freakin sweet anyway.

thats one of my favorites.

I always thought there was potential with the Wing Commander series.....and then that movie came out and ruined all future prospects...bastards.

Macross Series

ahhhhhhhhhh my all time favorate.

if you havent had the chance you should watch macross frontier.

It just came out.

I don't really consider 3 months "just came out"

Its a good series

dunno, I didn't like it at all, to each his own. I found myself totally uninterested in the series after 5-6 or six episodes or so, there are better shows are out now IMO.

Itano Ichiro ditched macross for Blassreiter and I am starting to think there is a good reason for it Blassreiter FTW

Aye, that was incredibly epic. Love that sequence.

Agreed. When Adama went "All hands, brace for turbulence," I had no idea what was coming

Unless of course you saw the preview which ruins every episode just before the show.

The BSG mod for it also looks really nice but it's not out yet although a demo is available.

Both games are totally free after the source code release.

i conquer, yet neither are movies or tv shows. however it is imperative that you have the SCP otherwise you will have the experience of turkish star wars.

and in SW ROS you need surround sound for the beginning space battle, i would also recommend EAX.

Freespace 1/2 is frigging epic.

I think Stargate has great ones. The Ancient weapon sequence was memorable. The first time an Asgard ship shows up too (not really a "space battle", but still)
First Contact was very memorable.
Macross Frontier has awesome battle scenes. Anime yes but with 3D, very pretty.

Futurama is the only one that comes to mind.

I've never seen any of the shows mentioned in this thread.

That's because only umans watch movies/tv shows, not complex AI system. If you were uman, you would know these shows and how much emotion is drawn from watching them.
