Another Vote – Best Sci-Fi Film

Okay time for the last vote of the year – and it’s a big one. Best Sci-Fi Film ever.

There are going to be lots of candidates and probably some discussion so I will kick it off with a few of my choices – in no particular order:

Blade Runner
Enemy Mine
Silent Running
2001: A Space Oddysey
Star Wars (all of them)
Star Trek (probably Wrath of Khan but I like a few others too)
Terminator
Dark City
Close Encounters of the Third Kind
X-Files – the Movie
Rocket to the Moon (for its sheer quaint charm)
Fantastic Voyage
The one with them surfing into the sun and the big inflatable alien. Continue reading “Another Vote – Best Sci-Fi Film” →
