Or Pandorum (2009)? Anything set on a large spaceship meant to transport colonists to another star system, over an extremely long period of time, but something goes wrong.

Now that I'm typing this, I am experiencing deja vu. Have I posted this question before, and just forgot?!? Sorry.

Whatever... anyway, there is an old story by Robert Heinlein that I liked a lot when I first discovered it, when I was in around fifth grade. Wait, I read the segment of this called Universe, apparently there is another segment that I'm not sure I ever read. I should seek that out. The collected, total version, including both segments, is discussed here.

I also read Proxima Centauri by Murry Leinster. I had a few books and anthologies of very old science fiction when I was a kid, I didn't even really understand that they were outdated in some ways.... anyway, Proxima Centauri is a short story.

Anyway, I just noticed this little list on Wikipedia, so that'll give me a start. Does anybody here have any thoughts to add to this??

I remember Alien Covenant had the ship transporting some colonists, or at least some DNA for potential colonists. Too bad the movie turned derivative. I wish they would have kept the Prometheus route instead of trying to make it more of a xenomorph movie, because that's where it turned uninspired. Plus, the Fassbender twist was predictable as fuck.

I haven't seen Passengers, but I like space stuff. And while I like Chris Pratt, I kinda hate Jennifer Lawrence, so there's that...
