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

    What the fuck? You need to get your head examined if you *truly* believe this. :)

        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!

        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

                It would certainly make a top 20, along with Logan's Run, but it's just edged out of my top 10.

                              Brazil! Replace The Matrix in the top 10. And really, many of his other movies should count as SF too, like The Time Bandits The Adventures of Baron Munchausen Twelve Monkeys Whatever _can_ be configured, _must_ be

                                      Nice to see Dr Strangelove make an appearance. I'd just have to add another of my favourites. John Carpenter's classic Dark Star!
