Favorite Sci-fi movies?
zridling:
I'd watch a bad sci-fi movie over just about any other genre. Here's my top five among others you gotta see. Share yours, as I'm needed new material.
* BladeRunner (1982)
* Chronicles of Riddick (2004)
* The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975) (hey, genetic engineering)
* Matrix I (1999)
* Soylent Green (1973)
*
And don’t forget three great/campy ones from the 50s (if you've ever watched Mystery Science Theater 3000, you've seen them all):
* This Island Earth (1955)
* 20 Million Miles to Earth (1957)
* The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951)
mouser:
you forgot Alien and Aliens !
app103:
These might not be my top picks, but I am trying not to repeat anything you already mentioned, and include some stuff you may not have seen.
Yes, I know some of these qualify as cheese, but I like cheese...cheese is good. :P
* Electric Dreams (1984) (boy meets girl, boy falls in love with girl, computer gets jealous)
* Gattaca (1997)
* Cherry 2000 (1987)
* The Lathe of Heaven (1980) (TV) (based on my favorite novel)
* Logan's Run (1976)
* They Live (1988) (contains one of the most amusing fight scenes I have ever seen in a movie)
and of course ANYTHING Star Trek related. :D
jgpaiva:
Hey! Why didn't anyone mention Star Wars? :D
cthorpe:
Dune (both David Lynch and Sci-Fi channel versions are good for different reasons)
Alien
Serenity (I'll admit it... I'm a JW fanboy)
They Live (1988) (contains one of the most amusing fight scenes I have ever seen in a movie)

Is that the one with the special sunglasses and the fight that goes on forever? Awesome!
