    Aliens is the only one that I love in every way...unless you count Star Wars as Sci-Fi.

    Your argument is like a two legged dog with an eating disorder...weak and unbalanced.

    Dune? Seriously? You people have got to be joking. There is no way that Dune can be one of your favorite scifi movies of all time. One of the greatest scifi books ever written? That I can believe. But the movie was a travesty to a work of art. I wish someone would step up and make a proper movie out of the book. You know, one of those movies that don't cut out major key parts that are absolutely essential to advance the story line? Yeah.... one of those. The freaking movie from the 80s didn't even make sense.

    The SciFi Dune mini-series wasn't too bad and movies are never as good as the books...... but when the book is a masterpiece and the movie trash, that's something different. 

     

    Anyway, mine are:

    Star Wars (pick one)

    Dark City

    Existenz

     

    lol top 3 is kinda hard to chose.

    1 Forbidden Planet....Old movie way, way aheads of its time. Predated Star trek by many years and was better by far (not campy).All the decently done movies we have had for 55 years owe this movie big time for setting standard

    2 Star Wars set another level of excellance

    3 Aliens ( the second one) enjoyed it immensly.

    Only two Star Wars movies are any good at all - episode 4 and 5 - the rest just blew chunks.    If you say or  think the rest are good you do not know good story telling at all.

     

    1) Forbidden Planet - just awesome...seriously...this movie was way ahead of its time.   I'd love to see a modern remake - not a re-envisioned - but a remake.

    2) Alien - nuff said...movie was just awesome.

    3) Gattaca -brilliant movie - very scary future indeed and quite a glimpse at what maybe a very real future.

    oh

    and honorable mention goes to Blade Runner.

    If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude; greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.

    1. War of The Worlds (Original) Shows all things in nature exist for a reason

    2. Enemy Mine Shows that even your most hated enemy is capable of becoming a true friend

    3. The Thing (John's version) Shows how trust, loyalty and honor battle for domination

    Honorable mention:


    Star Trek (JJ's version)

    It is too hard to decide on a top 3, so these are just some people haven't mentioned.

    The Terminator (1 and 2)

    Back to the Future (all of them)

    Ghostbusters (all of them)

    And acknowledgements for the following, which I feel are necessary for mentioning (and that I can remember that I have seen):

    E.T.

    THX 1138

    RoboCop (1 and 2)

    Men in Black (1 and 2)

    Jurassic Park (1)

    A Clockwork Orange

    Hitchhiker's Guide

    Starship Troopers

    And many more. / Too many to list.

  • FlemFlem Member UncommonPosts: 2,870

    Hard to narrow it down to three but here goes:

    1. Aliens

    2. Starship Troopers

  • MuraisMurais Member UncommonPosts: 1,118

    Pandorum - Ben Foster is an awesome actor, the movie is scary as all hell, and the ending is great.

     

    Aliens - Already stated. Classic for obvious reasons.

     

    I'm hard-pressed for a third. And I really like Sci-Fi. Maybe Pitch Black? Or Starship Troopers? 2001? Eh. Here's my top 2 1/2, then.
