Nobody loves Gattica? Favorite sci-fi...

No love for Ken Russell's Altered States either, I see.

My faves, in alphabetical order:

2001
Abre los ojos (Open Your Eyes, Alejandro Amenabar)
Alien
Altered States
Andromeda Strain
Blade Runner
Brazil
Children Of Men
Dark City
The Day The Earth Stood Still
Forbidden Planet
Gattica
La Jete
The Man Who Fell To Earth
Metropolis
Moon
Quatermass & The Pit (Five Million Years To Earth US)
Silent Running
Solaris (Tarkovsky)
Stalker (Tarkovsky)
Videodrome

I have yet to see The Man From Earth, so that could potentially make this list. Feel like I left something out but I dunno what it might be.

Some day I'd like to see a kiwi film called The Navigator again. Saw it 15-20 years ago on cable and was rather taken with it.

Galaxy Quest and Back To The Future are great comedies, and I guess they could be classified as SF. I love Bride of Frankenstein, but don't consider it SF...although it was in the day...I'd classify it in the horror/fantasy genre.

My favorite guilty pleasure is The Hidden, I love it so much I even have the Collector's Edition DVD. I'd classify several Star Trek movies as guilty pleasures as well - Wrath Of Khan, Journey Home...I enjoyed the 2009 Star Trek in the theater a lot. Don't own any of them, however. I also enjoyed Serenity, mainly because I was a loyal Firefly viewer. I need to catch up on Battlestar Gallactica, just saw the first few eps.
