5 Raiders of the Lost Ark
6 Independence Day
7 star Trek V The Undiscovered Country

I wouldn't have considered the Indy trilogy scifi...

[Shep'sSocks]

Because they're not?

[Easter Lily]

I was trying to work out why Kirath thought that the Indy trilogy was scifi...

[MarshAngel]

For all of us who enjoyed Galaxy's Quest's salute to Trek, Gate, and the like, I would recommend The Lost Skeleton of Cadavera as a tribute to B movies -Be warned: you'll be sterilized with fear!

This movie was so bad I actually enjoyed it. crazy stuff. Worth watching again. I made my friend watch a few minutes and all she kept repeating was. "You can't be serious."

My favorites, in no real order but the closer to the top the more I tend to like them.

Terminator 2

[Piratejenna]

Not necessarily the best, but the ones I love the most and can watch over and over again -

(1) Silent Running - profound, beautiful, with cute droids!
(2) Blade Runner - the images stay with you forever
(3) Outland - Sean Connery, High Noon in Space, and a very non-stereotypical female side-kick
(4) Moon 44 - Roland Emmerich movie from the days before the FX swamped the characters
(5) Dark Star - beach ball aliens, sentient bombs, surfing in space
(6) Aliens - not all Hollywood blockbusters are bad...
(7) Terminator 2 - ditto
(8) 2010 - much more enjoyable than 2001 (oops, sacrilege)
(9) Contact - Great for the first half, at least
(10) The Postman. Well, I liked it. Pity nobody else did!
