Re: My Top Ten Sci Fi Movies

207.67.53.106

Some of my personal favorites, in no particular order:

2001: A Space Odyssey
Solaris (Tarkovsky)
Blade Runner
Dark City
La Jetee (I know it's really a short, but I'm stlll putting it in)
Metropolis (still looks amazing)
Forbidden Planet
The Day The Earth Stood Still
The Andromeda Strain
Alien
The Hidden (Every time I take an aspirin I think of this film , lol)
Quatermass & The Pit ("What color is the sky?"...."brrrowwwwnnnnn!"),

I can't decide if the immortal Repo Man is really sci-fi or it's just out there. I LOVE Brazil but again, I don't think I would classify it as sci-fi...maybe as dystopian fantasy or...social commentary...a great film no matter what. But then how does one classify Delicatessen and City of Lost Children? Also fantasy? (Probably) What about Aronofsky's Pi??? Or Winterbottom's Code 46? (I know a lot of people hate Code 46 but I like it. So there.)

Favorite Guilty Pleasure: first 2/3rds of Dune (really)

Another guilty pleasure...A Boy & His Dog

Honorable Mentions:

Them, The Abyss, AI (7/8 of it anyway), Invasion of the Body Snatchers, Soylent Green, Things To Come, 12 Monkeys, Tremors, The Thing (both versions)

Last and least...Star Wars Episodes 4-5 (the Ewoks & Episodes 1-3 have tarnished the franchise way too much for me),
