You would have to put "The day the earth stood still" in there.

A classic Sci-fi movie that changed the whole genre.

I wouldn't say I'm a fan but I can't believe Star Trek missed out  ???. Also War of the Worlds.

A cult Sci-fi favourite of mine was The Black Hole.

Don't like Sci-Fi at all but I am a fan of the Alien series :-\

And for mine the 2nd one ALIENS (directed by James Cameron) is the stand out by along way
"Oh yes I am a dreamer, I still see us flying high!"

There was also a pretty good Aliens video game at timezone in the early 90s.

Just saw a decent sci-fi film called 'Sunshine'. Not great, but pretty good. Give it a watch if you can be faarked.
