Best Sci-Fi movies of all time 

As most of you folks now.. there's a terrible shortage of good Sci-Fi movies out there... and in order for us to bring back some past gems to the surface I thought we'd share memory based tips with each other:

Lawnmower man (imba cgi back then)

Blade runner (of course)

Leviathan (deep sea aliens ROCK)

Re: Best Sci-Fi movies of all time 

alien - solid and good thriller/horror sci fi without cheese and I think the special effects still holds up

aliens - still good, bit more action packed and with some cheese

Blade runner - cant believe it was made in '82

2001 is nice but I tend to always fall asleep when watching it, recommend alot of jolt/coffee or other stimuli to keep you up.

Re: Best Sci-Fi movies of all time 

Star Wars - ofc the first movie. Still awesome and will always be. It still amazes me that it was made in the seventies.

Alien - say no more

28 Days Later - everything post apocalyptic rocks

Mad Max 1 - Yet another post apocalyptic/nuclear movie that kicks ass

Brazil - weird but a fun and cool movie

2001 - danish design furniture ftw!

Pitch Black - The hero is a mass murderer!

Event Horizon - some fucked up CGI but still nice footage

Starship Troopers - the mass killing scenes where slimy bug parts fly all over the place is pure art!

The Abyss - first real nice CGI I remeber. Deepsea mysteries ftw!

Blade Runner - everything is just SO cool. Rutger Hauer's speech/poem at the end is just awesome.

Planet of the Apes - Charleton Heston before he became a spokesperson for the NRA.

Screamers - evil critters under ground

Robo Cop - "You have twenty seconds to comply!"

I Robot - I love Isaac Asimov.

The Bicentennial Man - I still love Asimov.

The Running Man - just pure fun with "Arnie" as the running man.

Re: Best Sci-Fi movies of all time 

Blade Runner - epic win, still can't believe it's an 80's film. The novel is rather boring, so I'm glad they just took one tiny aspect and the names and made it into a life-changing film with some very interesting perspectives

Star Wars III-VI - The original trilogy is naturally great, but III was a very good film for me, redeeming the prequel series entirely

Starship Troopers - "YOU APES WANNA LIVE FOREVER?"

The Fifth Element - great styling, great plot, great execution

Bicentennial Man - Robin Williams did a great job in the '99 adaptation of Asimov's great novel

I, Robot - even though it was pretty much nothing like the great book, it was still a good film standing in it's own right. Asimov wins!

 

NB: I would love to see a series of movies based on the Foundation novels, they are really where Asimov shines

There's a lot of good sci-fi and a lot I would like to see/see made, but for me this is the best of the best

Re: Best Sci-Fi movies of all time 

Here's a couple I could think of....

DUNE - Not sure if anyone mentioned this but such a great movie and book. I heard not too long ago that a remake is going to be done soon, can't wait.

TERMINATOR 2 - Great Sci-fi and an awesome movie IMO.

THE ICE PIRATES - I haven't found too many people who've seen this but it's a funny space movie that I've always liked.

TOTAL RECALL - Was a fun ride although not a great movie.  I read the book as well and it was pretty close.

Re: Best Sci-Fi movies of all time 

Dune (Frank Herbert's) - DESERT POWER!

Starship Troopers - they really needed the powered suits though

Serenity - can't forget Serenity.Great story and the short action scene between the Alliance and the Reavers is pure awesome.

 

side note: Ender's game would make an awesome movie. *Hint hint* film producers.
