              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:

                                        All these replies, and only one mention of Dark City[^] that I saw. In my opinion, that's among the best sci-fi movies ever made, if not the best. It's amazing that it isn't more widely known.

                                          Awesome thread and most of my fave movies appear in here, but why has no-one mentioned Demon Seed? I know it has its faults but it's an amazing film. Demon Seed Matrix Blade Runner Andromeda Strain Logan's Run 12 Monkeys 2001: Space Odyssey THX 1138 Akira Alphaville (A randomish "top 10" that may or may not be the same next time you ask me). From the comment elsewhere about old sci-fi fans, I'm 35. I love the new stuff, but somehow the movies I saw when very young like Andromeda Strain, Logan's Run and Demon Seed went in very deep.
