Okay, Solaris Might be a LITTLE plodding but...

... I think you owe it to yourself to read the book if you haven't already. Arguably Stanislaw Lem’s best. Personally, I love the movie, but I admit that I sometimes fast-forward through that grueling drive to the spaceport; no dialog of any kind, just the monotonous hum of the car’s engine for ten goddamn minutes! My wife believes that this is characteristic of Russian movies and allows the audience to take advantage of the warm theater. You could show them a continuous loop of that driving scene (or even American network TV reruns *hack*) and they probably wouldn’t mind. ; )

Eden, The Invincible, Futurological Congress, and Cyberiad aren't bad reads either...
