I've recently saw Space Station 3D on IMAX. It was UNBELIEVABLE! I guess that was the closest way of actual being there, in a shuttle, during an EVA or aboard ISS. The launches were out of this world and the general feeling was amazing. Great movie, best 3D experience ever, it was like being in a rollercoaster park at some scenes. I cannot watch any other ordinary 3D movie after this one. Kindly recommended to any space enthusiast, worth every penny and every second watching it. It will blow your mind.
 
Any James Bond movies, you name it i've seen it.Bond 23,the newest movie is coming out November of next year.

That is a great movie, but I think the Hubble 3D is even better. It gives me chills every time I see it, and it has some great Shuttle footage as well.
