Favorite sci-fi/fantasy movies of all time?

[Wiseman_Vaughn]

Not sure if anybody has mentioned it but I'll add Contact.

Good story

I also enjoy the parody of 1970s sci fi from family guy

Their Star Wars spoofs are superb.

Has anyone said inception yet?

Brilliant film, but not everyone's cup of tea.

Remember watching it at the cinema, was blown away. Sat there thinking "that was class" as the credits rolled. Turned to my mate and before I could say anything he just said, deadly serious "what a load of rubbish that was eh?"

I really enjoyed kpax and the butterfly effect. Not sure kpax is Sci fi, depends on your interpretation.

Moon is really good. Sam Rockwell is a very versatile actor.

I don't think anyone's said Battlestar Galactica yet ..

One might have imagined the previous poster...

...knew it's a TV series!

 

[Mickey_2003]

Some good ones so far. I'll add:
Contact
Arrival

Contact is another favourite

 

[Mickey_2003]

Cube was a late night watch that I enjoyed back when I was a teenager.

 

[BaronSmoggie]

Not sure if anybody has mentioned it but I'll add Contact.

Good story

I'm reading the book at the moment, its very good.

Films for me, some more modern stuff.

1. Interstellar
2. Blade Runner 2049
3. Dark City
4. The 2009 Star Trek reboot. That opening sequence I think is the best of any Trek movie.
5. Prey

Good story

There’s a remake in the works

 

[Littlejimmy]

Indeed. There was also a movie made in 1979, IIRC, off the back of the Glenn Larson TV show. He also made Buck Rogers in the 25th Century.

That sounds promising! Like I say, it’s a great story. You could imagine contact being made that way
