Zenith Wrote:Hey thanks for the movie line up ..... right now,I am in the mood for a very good SciFiNP Zenith. Here are some of my favorite SciFi movies. These are my favorites and some are not considered all time greats, but I enjoyed them. In no order (other then the first one)
Blade Runner (extended version with Harrison Ford's full narration) - best sci fi flick ever IMO
The Matrix - first movie
Alien - first movie
Terminator 1 and 2
Children of Men - overrated in my opinion, but still good
Twelve Monkeys - classic
Starship Troopers - first movie. Never gets enough credit for how good it is.
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind - borderline Sci Fi, but fantastic movie
Total Recall - so much good sci fi stuff packed into one movie.
Back to the Future
Star Trek, The Wrath of Khan - just the best one of the bunch and Khan is awesome.
Brazil - few movies have the scope and vision of this mind fuck of a flick
Gattaca - underrated movie IMO
Minority Report - some of Cruises best work and a kick ass story
The Fifth Element - rarely has Sci Fi been this fun. overacting all around, but it works and is always a fun movie to watch.
Close Encounters of the Third Kind - still holds up today as a great movie.
Independence Day - big movie, big effects - awesome movie.
Predator - the first one.
Mad Max - so many movies have copies elements of this one.
Robo Cop - the first one. way ahead of its time.
Pitch Black
X-Men
The Thirtennth Floor - underrated movie from 1999
V for Vendetta and The Truman Show are always on the best Sci Fi lists. I love both of these movies but don't consider them classic "sci fi" movies
Worst Sci Fi movie and maybe worst movie period ever - Battlefield Earth. Just an incredible pile of shit.
