The only one I have seen is 2001. I thought it was awful.

I had rather enjoy watching them than try to figure out what they are doing since very little of it is actually something which could really happen.

I think my favorite one was “Forbidden Planet” which had an interesting theme. Also the original “Invaders from Mars”.

I loved “Star Wars” then it began a long slide.

Robot Chicken's versions of Star Wars are the best things that have ever happened to the franchise. I defy anyone to watch the Emperor on the escalator bit, for example, and not bust a gut laughing.

Forbidden Planet- one of my favorites, still remember most of the dialog.

IIRC, “Forbidden Planet” was loosely based on Shakespeare’s “The Tempest.”
