[QUOTE]Originally posted by The Mighty Monkey of Mim: [QB] Well, you also think [i]Wrath of Khan[/i] is better than [i]Star Trek: The Motion Picture[/i]... In regards to the best science fiction films of all time, I think a listing of only 5 couldn't possibly cover it. 10 would be better, though still inadequate. I'd list 20 at least. And so, in chronological order: [i]Metropolis[/i] (1927) [i]Frankenstein[/i] (1931) [i]The Day The Earth Stood Still[/i] (1951) [i]20,000 Leagues Under The Sea[/i] (1954) [i]Gojira[/i] (1954) [i]20 Million Miles to Earth[/i] (1957) [i]Planet of the Apes[/i] (1968) [i]2001: A Space Odyssey[/i] (1968) [i]THX 1138[/i] (1971)* [i]Close Encounters of the Third Kind[/i] (1977) [i]Star Wars[/i] (1977) and sequels, particularly [i]The Empire Strikes Back[/i] (1980)** [i]Star Trek: The Motion Picture[/i] (1979) [i]Alien[/i] (1979) [i]Blade Runner[/i] (1982) [i]Back to the Future[/i] (1985) and sequels [i]Jurassic Park[/i] (1993) [i]Gattaca[/i] (1997) [i]The Matrix[/i] (1999)*** [i]Solaris[/i] (2002) [i]Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow[/i] (2004) *The [i]original[/i] version, not the one with all the cocked-up CGI in it. **Ditto. Also, I would like to point out, as I have before, that SW is not truly science fiction in the strictest sense, but the same might be said of some others on there as well. ***Dear God, [i]not[/i] the sequels! [b]GENERAL NOTE:[/b] As I said, this is a minimal listing. There are at least a dozen other great films I've seen that I could have put, but I had to draw the line somewhere. And yes, let it also be noted that I am limited to the films that I have actually [i]seen[/i], though I freely admit that I retain a shocking ignorance where some widely seen flicks are concerned. (The [i]Terminator[/i] series, for example, which I hold no prejudice against but which I simply haven't gotten around to watching yet.) Well, there you are. -[b]MMoM[/b] :D [[b]EDIT:[/b] I just realized that you were only talking about movies from the eighties. Which essentially means I've spent forever typing up this essentially off-topic post for essentially nothing. Thank you.] [/QB][/QUOTE]
