The science-fiction genre has been around almost as long as movies themselves have.

OH MAN!!!! Where’s the ‘Book of Eli’, ‘I Robot’ and ‘I am Legend’?

[C19fan]

/src on/Where is David Lynch’s Dune!!! hee, hee /src off/ THE SLEEPER AWAKES!

[bkepley]

What? Nobody else liked The Illustrated Man?

[theDentist]

Nope. Nor any of the "Planet of the Apes" films (thank G-d).

BTW, does anyone else think it's about time for a sequel to Close Encounters?

[Moleman]

Where is “They Live” staring Roddy Pipper?

[Frantzie]

I would put Alien #1, Blade Runner 3 and The Matrixx 4.

Alien is also partially a horror movie. The beginning is great with the ship the Nostromo steaming ahead like a huge haunted house.

As Gary Oldman as Dr. Smith says in the remake of Lost in Space - “nothing good will come of this.” You just know bad things are going to happen on this doomed ship.

[EveningStar]

I see a lot of gotta be kidding mees on that list.

[Tijeras_Slim]

Heartily agree with Blade Runner’s place.

[massgopguy]

What about “Rudy”? C’mon. A tackling dummy gets carried of the field at Notre Dame?
Was Robo-Cop on that list?
What about SPACE BALLS?

[PetroniusMaximus]

Inception

[dfwgator]

I would put “An Incovenient Truth” on there, well at least it certainly is “Fiction.”

[RexBeach]

Hey! Where on the list is “Mars Needs Women”?

[seoul62]

Yes, a big up for “Blade Runner” one question though can anyone tell me if Harrison Ford’s Character was a Replicant?

[Politicalmom]

I liked it, but I haven’t read the book.

It was campy.

[EveningStar]

#45

It would not make my list at all.

[Kartographer]

What about ‘Star Trek IV The Voyage Home’? That was a fun movie!

[Rufii]

I would consider Star Wars I (1977) to be the greatest science fiction film of all time, but I don’t even see it on the list.

[eyeamok]

and why didn’t “An Inconvenient Truth” make the list?? I bet Algore is steamed.

[Malone LaVeigh]

16: Starship Troopers Great book (Heinlein, of course), but I heard the movie was very disappointing. Anyone like it?

Great book ... really awful movie, but I just love it! I can't help but watch it whenever it's on. It's stupid, but a lot of fun.

[Nachum]

I liked the first of the Starship Troopers movies. Paul Verhooven is a great director. Not really the book, but one does get the sense of a militarized society.

Personally, I was glad it was on the list.
