Science Fiction
What? A science fiction thread with no mention of Isaac Asimov? For shame! Isaac Asimov must reads: The Last Question, Nightfall, and I, Robot.

Isaac Asimov is credited with having invented the term "robotics".

Equilibrium
Okay okay.. it's the stoic - one emotion never waver, Christian Bale - however the story in itself is quite great - the essence of sci-fi and end of the world, start over again, government control -

just flat out good stuff!!

Favorite ice cream
It all depends on mood.

Books I've enjoyed the most, at the right time:

Asimov's original Foundation trilogy (F, F&E, SF)
Niven's first Ringworld novel
Herbert's first Dune novel (I see a pattern developing)
Pohl's first Gateway novel (yes, the patten is still holding)
Verne's From the Earth to the Moon

Movies I've enjoyed the most, at the right time:

Forbidden Planet (drive-in retelling of a highly poetic The Tempest)
The Matrix (popularization of a classic philosophical thought experiment)
2001
Metropolis
Blade Runner
Alien
Pitch Black (okay, I have schlock tastes, too -- sue me)
Both versions of The Thing
Dark City (many philosophical themes explored)
Buckaroo Banzai (most fun I've ever had in public)

Deep Space Nine
the episode when they incorporated an original star trek episode into their show...and had to come up with a way to explain why Klingons looked so different...well, they did that by not explaining it!

I love the lensman series by EE Doc Smith (book) as for movies, I like 2001. I loved the planet of the apes series when I was growing up, I must say that stargate has sucked me in somewhat!
