[SFRA-L] Hibernation in SF film and television?

[Gunn, James E]

Does the Woody Allen film "Sleeper" qualify?  And then there's "Just Imagine."  Jim

I know you didn't ask, but if you're interested anyway, hibernation pods feature in both of Valve's Portal games. The first is straightforward, the player is woken from one for a series of tests. In the second they have malfunctioned because of the passage of time after most everything was wiped out (c.f. the Half-Life games), and the player "most likely suffered a little major brain damage."

Dear Hive Mind,

so  here's  a  query  - can you think of SF films and television shows (any  country  or  year) that feature any kind of a hibernation/stasis device? Vertical or horizontal, space-faring or bunker-installed - any kind is good as long as there's at least a glimpse of the device.

Some  obvious  examples  include  the Aliens franchise, Event Horizon, Pitch Black, Avatar, or Pandorum but I am sure there are many more.

Will you help?

Pawel
