WOW number 97 on that list, who ever put that list togther must've been still living in the 30s, damn Dark City what the hell the movie probibily didn't make over 10m, am sorry but that was the stupedest list I have ever seen, the person who wrote it should be beaten to death with his own freken shoes.
Overall i dont think the list werent to bad and i have only a few complaints, 2001 should be number 1, blade runner can be anything from like nr 2-20 but not 1, and certenly not better then 2001. also Starship troopers better then star gate? no way. Overal from the films i recongnised it looked pretty good.
I thought it was a very good list, except that The War of the Worlds (original) wasn't on it. Otherwise, it wasn't a bad list at all. Top 25 or so were excellent picks imo. Dark City should have been higher though.
The Wrath of Khan is my favorite sci-fi movie, but if I were forced to pick one movie to call the best sci-fi movie ever (only if I were forced, I don't think there's such a thing as a definitive "best movie" in any genre) I would probably pick Blade Runner. It is THAT good imo.
But I would have had Aliens ahead of Alien, the second movie was so much better than the first IMO, the first was good too mind you but I thought the second was better
Nah I loved Wall-E, but thought it being in the sci fi list was odd though. To be honest I thought Clockwork Orange was a strange choice. Magnificently disturbing movie. Sticks with you for a long time but I never thought of it as sci fi.
Yeah, that list is seriously messed up. I agree with some, & haven't seen every movie there by any means, but seriously - The Fountain? How is that scifi? I hated that movie & got dumber for having watched it. I actually sat thru it hoping it was going to get better & it just got worse & worse! WTF is it doing on this list?
