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.

H.G. Wells War of the Worlds... is a classic.

Please, don't tell me y'all have forgotten Barbarella? And with that: 2001 Barbarella The Bed Sitting Room Blade Runner Enemy Mine The Matrix Silent Running Dr. Strangelove THX 1138 Zardoz 2nd rank: A Boy and his Dog Andromeda Strain (original, have yet to see the latest remake) The Cold Equations Contact The Day The Earth Stood Still Fifth Element Logan's Run Serenity Slaughterhouse Five Soylent Green Star Wars Trilogy Difficult to rank really; impact on the genre, on my generation, on me, or just a rollicking good tale? Whatever... Whatever _can_ be configured, _must_ be

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!

Yes, but definitely the 50s movie over that Tom Cruise trash that they did recently. That was just plain bad.
I concur, I was referring to the original movie. I should have specified that. The recent remake did not add any value to timeless radio show or movie. I would like to obtain a copy of the original radio broadcast.

As I figured you were. With all the classics listed, I would hope no one that's responded would list that remake as anything but extraordinarily bad. Even still, I felt the need to comment. :laugh:
