Okay, so the #1 SF movie of all time is ... Aliens??? http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...milies/lol.gif

I thought it was an interesting film, mostly visually though. The plot was pretty mediocre, but it was probably new to a lot of people.

The problem is that most people have an entirely inaccurate definition of 'sci-fi'. (Hence this list.)

SF is defined by a certain kind of story, not by the presence of robots and lasers.

In one sense, ESOTSM was quite SF. In another sense, it wasn't. Hence why I don't strike it.

Blade Runner http://www.discussworldissues.com/im...ons/icon14.gif

Also, the original Vanilla Sky was good. (Not the US remake)

Ahh, yes. http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...milies/lol.gif

There is something else missing off there too that should be blatantly there, but I just can't place it...

Wasn't ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND that film about a brilliant socially inept mathematician? I think he was played by Crowe.

Where is Voyage Home? Wrath of KHAAAAAAAAN!? I'm dis-appointed.

Planet of the apes was grand, also... As was Soylent Green. "Soylent green is damn dirty apes!"

Forbidden planet? Star Wreck: In the Pirkinning? http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...lies/frown.gif

Soylent Green, yeah, that's the one I wanted to place!

http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...ies/tongue.gif ACK! Just think about when the 'remake' comes out. http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...lies/frown.gif

Space Herpes! http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...milies/lol.gif

And where's Waterworld on that list? http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...milies/lol.gif

Blade Runner and 2001, definitely.

For your consideration:

Contact
Brazil
A Clockwork Orange
Charly
Men In Black
Galaxy Quest
I, Robot
Enemy Mine
Repo Man
Hellboy
Minority Report
Total Recall
Slaughterhouse Five
12 Monkeys
Cocoon
The Abyss
A Scanner Darkly
Robocop
The Fifth Element
Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy

Not enough earlier films on your list, -Jrabbit.

Have you ever seen the movie?

The Fifth Element is your #1 http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...es/stunned.gif

Nah, for Sci-Fi I'd have to rate the original Matrix as my #1. It was the first film that I really thought about the concepts in the film, I was only 11 when I first watched it.
