Ugh, I forgot about Looper. Lists are too hard.
The lack of Godzilla hurts me.
Speaking of classics, Them! is a fantastic film. Nobody here seen that either, I imagine.
I've seen it, I just kind of lump it into B-Movie horror over Sci-Fi though.Originally Posted by Forsaken Lover
True beauty exists in things that last only for a moment.
Current Mood: And it's been a long December and there's reason to believe. Maybe this year will be better than the last. I can't remember all the times I tried to tell myself. To hold on to these moments as they pass...
It's a legitimately good movie though with fine acting and effects for the time. It's also a great piece of film history, representing popular fears and ideas in the 50s about science. Science Fiction broadly falls into the "Science Will Uplift Us" type and the "Cautionary Tale" type. Them! is a good example of the latter, as is Godzilla.
So is Jurassic Park, for a more modern example. But that's more in the novel than the movie.
Pitch Black
Star Ship Troopers
5th Element
A New Hope
Serenity
this one was tough as in not real big into scfi.

Pick any 10 of these and I'm satisfied.

What "they" said, plus Pinoocchio, I mean Artificial Intelligence.
I'm one of the sentimental saps who actually liked AI and think people are too harsh on it.
In no particular order...
The Matrix
Gattaca
Blade Runner
Bicentennial Man
The Fifth Element
Strange Days
EDIT: I just realised that all six of these films came out in the 90s, with the exception of Blade Runner. Interesting.
