Not necessarily in order: 2001 A Space Odyssey The Fly (The Jeff Goldblum version) 12 Monkeys Tron Collossus The Forbin Project Lawnmower Man Blade Runner I have to include the First Star Wars movie, it was groundbreaking at the time. Metropolis Total Recall

Of all the movies mentioned in the thread, one omitted was "Enemy Mine" starring Dennis Quaid and Lou Gosset Jr. The effects were quite low budget, but the script and the acting was absolutely outstanding.
I lost my epiphany. :doh:

Well, for my list, some of 'em are, Sunshine - Superb! 2010 - Still holds its own, almost 25 years later! Pitch Black Aliens The Hidden The Thing (John Carpenter's 1982 version) War of the Worlds (The 1953 classic) The Andromeda Strain (The original & the A&E remake) Stargate (and a BIG THANKS for its launch of the TV storylines) Felix De La Torre, Jr., aka, DLT

Fair do's and agreement on Logan's Run. Man, I loved Farrah and Jenny Agutter in that film.

Thank you guys. I was wondering if someone would suggest some of the movies from your lists. 2001 - A Space Odyssey Alien(s) Logan's Run Solaris Soylent Green I would add The Andromeda Strain (1971) I think this message node is written and maintained by old (40-55) classic SF lovers.

How about the most recent Battlestar Galactica from the SciFi channel. I loved the old series when I was a kid so didn't start watching the new series till recently. I just started off with the mini-series and loved it!

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

Here you go.....!!!!! Alien Aliens BladeRunner Forbidden Planet Star Trek II, II, IV and VI The Day the earth Stood Still Fantastic Voyage (..Does the Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea Movie qualify.....?:confused:

Great movies! I believe you may have been a child of the 80's :) I haven't seen Buckaroo Banzai so will be sure to check it out. Have you got the new edition of Blade Runner? Worth it!

5th Element is dreadful. Sunshine I've not seen (but brother said is dreadful). The other two are OK.

That's a tv series, not a movie.

In no particular order: Dreamscape Repo Man Buckaroo Banzai Back to the Future Time Rider Capricorn One The Last Starfighter Flight of the Navigator Star Wars Electric Dreams Edit: Aw crap, forgot Blade Runner, it was hidden between Beatles and Bond. 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
