    Well for a start, I wouldn't have lamers like those two (and I can count up to 10 - you stopped at 4). Instead, and in no particular order: Alien Terminator Predator The Empire Strikes Back Blade Runner 5th Element The Matrix Invasion of the Body Snatchers The Day the Earth Stood Still Aliens

                    Same here. For me it's one of those movies that every time it is on, I have to watch. That, Poltergeist, and Transformers.

I guess it can replace Electric Dreams. Anyway, I only looked through what I have... if I don't have it, I didn't like it. :-D

                        I don't know if it really counts, but I love Transformers. Every time it is on TV I have to watch it. That along with Poltergeist, and The Fifth Element. Star Wars IV just holds a special place in my heart even though it is not really better overall than 5 and 6. And none of those recreated CGI ones. I also like Blade Runner. Hubby loves Serenity (haven't seen it all) and I got him Starship Troopers on BluRay for his b-day.

                          Sorry – it should be a "Wing Commander". My lousy English is the reason for these literal Bulgarian-English translations in my mind.

                            Night Of The Living Dead. (Tops Invasion of the Body Snatchers) :) Day of the Triffids. (The book is awesome, but the hatchet scene in the movie was stupendous, considering it was made in 1962.)

                                      Aliens (the best sci-fi movie ever made, ever!) Dark Star (classic lines, theme song and the character names, plus who hasn't wanted to surf into earth's atmosphere?)
